I also think that it depends on just how "commoner" they are.
Crown Princess Mathilde and Diana, Princess of Wales were both born into nobility, which I think gave them the best position one could enter the press in: already posessing the etiquette and manners necessary for the position, but still a fresh face who knows what it's like to have a 9 to 5 job. Crown Princess Mette-Marit had a bigger obstacle, I think, being a single mother.
The line between the two is getting a bit blurrier anyways. For every poised, private former commoner, like the Princess of Asturias, there is a hell raising Princess Stephanie!
