Something about Maxima from Colourpress...

Crown Princess Maxima - 20041116

colourpress.com

Princess Maxima during her day time a perfect new princess. In her private life a drinking and smoking South American girl.

When you see princess Maxima working, she is elegant, interested and very social in her fellow men.
Well dressed and next to her husband the crown prince and her mother in law the Queen, she looks like she is born to be the future Queen of Holland.

When the first pictures of Maxima appeared during her young relationship with Willem Alexander, the Dutch public new her form a video, made at a wedding of one of her friends in Argentina. We saw her dancing, smoking and drinking at the party. surrounded by boys.

This has been only one event wich went public. All pictures made of Maxima after this video were ''royal''. She dressed in a complete different way, spoke very affected and when chaced by paparrazi, she always seems to be smiling at the photgraphers. The Dutch public was under the influence of the new princess and were very fond of her.

Now I can show you 2 not ever been published pictures of the Princess at, again, a wedding in Buenos Aires. Made last may 2004 in Buenos Aires.
Here you can see that Maxima is in her private life, a real south American girl. Dancing, smoking, and in the centre of the attention. Note that Willem Alexander is trying to keep up with his wife, but the expression on his face, shows that he is not really a ''''party prince''''

The fact that Maxima has a sigaret, shows that during this time she was NOT pregant. But after her trip to Buenos Aires, nobody has seen her anymore with a sigaret. This plus the fact that her clothes are completly different than before and the up coming belly, feeds the rumours that she is pregant of her 2nd child.

When Maxima is at one of the parties in Holland with the friends of Willem Alexander she is always holding back her festivities. This maybe comes that in Holland verybody knows her as the princess.

Well the partying pictures dont look too bad. She has the right to party just like anyone of us and have fun with friends and especially at a friends wedding.I dont see a problem whether she smokes or not. It is totally up to her, maybe she isnt a smoker and one of her friends made her smoke or she smokes around them.
Maybe we all think its bad because she is a future queen, but we all have to enjoy our lives, and them too. They cant just sit and be formal all their lives can they? Even real born royales party and go to clubs, just like prince william and prince harry.

[Guess Who]

Hope the news of her pregnancy is true, i would really love to see her with a second child.She looks very full in some recent pictures.

[karolinabraganza]

to me the pictures look like bridal dance, where the couple dances in the middle of a circle of friends...no attention grabbing from her side. but she should have put the zig aside, she would have been able to embrace her husband properly!

no offence, your royal highness, but smoking is just nasty!!! however, i dont see a difference between a royal smoking or a commoner, lets not be so hypocrit, smoking kills anyone.

[The Watcher]

There are already two weeks rumours that Maxima is pregnant (in The Netherlands).

On the radio they told that they got the pregnant-rumours from the same source that told them that Maxima was pregnant of Amalia 1,5 year ago. So according them a reliable source.

I only believe it when the RVD tells it is true

[The Watcher]

Two little videos, Rtl Nieuws talked with the Princess today. About Prince Bernhard and the Microcredit-work. (Dutch)

You must be talking about mathilde, because I think Maxima can´t french and italian. Maxima speaks Dutch, English and Spanish

[carlota]

i don't think there's anything wrong about the partying pictures. that pics were taken in argentina, she is princess of the netherlands, not princess of argentina, there she is only a citizen who can obviously go out, have fun with friends and even sing in a stage, as she did in that wedding, ghehe!

I thought we were speaking of Mathilde, as i believe Josephine asked what language were they conversing in and someone replied Dutch then she asked how?? What I inferred was how can Mathilde converse in Dutch, therefore I replied that Mathilde is multilingual, speaking French, Italian and Dutch fluently...

[pdas1201]

some pics from hellomagazine...

[Guess Who]

Havent seen Maxima elegent for a long time.Really think what she is wearing suits her,its not to dressy.But i think her make-up should change abit,its always the same, she needs some more color.

Maxima is a Princess of the Netherlands and that status carries with her everywhere she goes. It does not stop short of the Dutch boundaries. When Maxima and Mathilde were at the United Nations headquarters in New York City they did not cease to be the Crown Princesses of the Netherlands and Belgium simply because they were in another country other than their own ruling country; they were not merely two women visiting New York City. Just as when Mathilde visits Denmark next week her role she will not be a mere tourist to Copenhagen.

The difference may be, however, in reference to the pictures posted at least, is that Willem and Maxima were at a private party in Argentina rather than attending a formal state function.

I remember Maxima looking radiant during the Opening of Parliament during her preganancy, I can't seem to find any pictures of that event, would any of you happen to have any? thanks (=
