Dutch Royal? where have they been hiding!
ReplyDelete:D
DeleteThey are ‘quite modest’ n try to live ‘normal lives’, but if you Google or search for images/photos of these folks, you will find a wealth of knowledge and history. If you look at past years of Queen’s Day , now King’s Day you will see the adults there all the time. It’s a family day too (their kids/teens not there; will most likely be with their friends having fun).
DeleteWhat a turnout. Happy 80st Birthday to professor Pieter van Vollenhoven, I must say his grandchildren have grown a lot. All of the ladies look very very lovely.
ReplyDeleteWinnie, the question is "where have you been looking?" or "not looking"; If you're interested try Viva Maxima blog. You don't need to understand French the photos are always great.
ReplyDeleteDutch really like their prints. And Maxima was not there? I guess she doesn't like to share her limelight.
ReplyDeleteWie trollig und prollig.
DeleteI am sure that there is a good reason for Máxima not to be on this event. Your comment is just speculative and ill intentioned, please be better!!
DeleteAgree.
DeleteOn the contrary, I think Willem-Alexander's family didn't want to steal the limelight here. I love the print on Margriet's dress! :)
DeleteThey were in Greece.
DeleteI think I can claim to have a sense of fashion. I understand that young girls like to dress fashionably. But these boots, picture 4, which the two teenagers wear, are completely inappropriate for the occasion.

ReplyDelete4 princes with their wife's (princesses).
ReplyDeletePrinces Margriet is the sister of princes (queen) Beatrix.
When Willem-Alexander became king this part of the family stepped out of the spotlights.
They join Kingsday.
The grandchilderen of princess Margriet don't have a royal title.
Sorry, but I will defend the teens in their Dutch teen clothing....short skirts and stylish boots/Dutch. It is not always cool to be seen as a ‘royal’ n in Dutch culture they are allowed to be who they are..teens. They are happy, smiling, most doubtless enjoying being with family...lovely to see them!
ReplyDeleteI agree with terri. I don't think we should be so tough with the teenagers. The boots are ok for them. Anonymous9,08 don't be tough. I think they feel more like their school mates than like members of the Royal family
DeleteWhat a nice and sympathetic family. Would see more of them :)
