So unlike British Royals, other royals can get involved in politics. That is awesome. can they vote?

Astrid (like Philippe and Laurent) is a member of senate in her own right, she's not of any particular party. In Belgium voting is obligatory, so the princes vote as well. Only the king and queen don't, to stay neutral.

The princes (and Astrid) as well will none the less never comment their political choice.

You're welcome Hillary :)

Here's another one of Astrid when she was younger. I think she's only become more beautiful and stylish with ageing.

Astrid's children normally don't attend these events, only the military parade at the national day.Lorenz has a normal fulltime job, he works as a banker, so that's why he can't always be present.
