Willem-Alexander And Máxima:News and Pictures: August-September 2004

[HMQueenElizabethII]

Queen Beatrix will pay a State Visit to Argentine at the end of this year with W-A,Maxima.And i thinktht also Amila.

[carlota]

just rumours i think... no official news, so until that i think the best is to say that maxima isn't pregnant. also... it's too early for her to be pregnant! she has just given birth to amalia. i think we all the royal watchers would like any of the princesses to be pregnant. there had been lots of rumours of maxima and mette marit pregnant, who has also given birth to ingrid recently and also rumours for mary and letizia, who had just married... that's why all the expectations...

[Alisa]

"it's too early for her to be pregnant! she has just given birth to amalia. "

Not really, looking back Queen Beatrix had all her children in a relatively short amount of time.

W-A- April 1967
Friso Sept.1968
Constantijn October 1969

[For the traditional Zorreguieta-Cerruti family "living together" is for the jungle people, and the most of argentine people agree with it. Hear, peolple with education, close to the Family, and with money don't live together with anyone.

Regina do you live in a church??? Please don`t show an image of Argentina which is not true at all.
It is not so big issue if Maxima had several relationships, but you don`t need to lie showing her as a saint or a virgin

[Bubbette]

"Jungle people?" What is that supposed to mean!

October 6th princess Máxima will go to the cinema with scholars of VMBO-schools (junior secondary vocational education) which has a negative imago (many children with an underprivileged background, many so-called 'black schools'). The Princess will watch a movie called 'See Yourself'. The movie is intended to held up a mirror to themselves and to show society what an important and positive contribution to society is given by them. Our country can not do without cooks, bakers, plummers, carpenters, craftsmen, mechanics, etc.

With her attendance the Princess hopes to show her support for this form of education.

They sure picked the coldest time to go to Patagonia! Isn't that in Chile, btw?

No, Patagonia is in Argentina. Maxima is in Bariloche, an argentinian city

[Beate]

I think we are all right to a certain degree. Looked it up on google and parts of Patagonia are indeed in Chile. However, Bariloche is as you said in Argentina..:) I guess this was our geography lesson of the day..

[The Watcher]

I guess Patagonia is also in Chile and Argentina. :) This is the site of the Argentinian Patagonia: http://www.patagonia.com.ar/

[Bubbette]

Is known that Maxima doesn't have any serious relationship before Alex, all her friends knows that. And the true is that Maxima is the most admired and loved Princess of Europe, and for us she'll always be "our dear Máxima". I'm sorry to say this but we have very pround in Máxima because she represent the dignity of the latin woman. Letizia and Mary had serious relationships before their weddings and, IMO, this is not correct in a future Queen.

Excuse me but the last time I checked the majority of world leaders all had a past. And WA also had a past even if he didn't live with anyone it doesn't mean he was a saint or virgin either. Why is it that I only hear these things said about future queens & not about future Kings or male consorts?? Are you saying that men should be allowed to have a past but not women?

Besides as I have it understood the past relationships of all these women (Maxima, Mary & Letizia) have all been serious relationships. That to me is respectable, to love someone & to want to live with them & make sure things are stable before jumping into a marriage. You make it sound as if it's okay so mess around with everyone as long as you don't go live with them. None of these women were sleeping around, they were with someone they loved.

As for your quote, I don't think that's what he meant by that. But in any case #1 people change if their past was bad & they want to do better, #2 their past wasn't a bad one, they had a serious relationship with people they loved & respected, who respected them. If that was the past then I guess the present is that they will have a loving & respectful relationship with their husbands.

Hurray for the modern woman who takes the time to find out what love & relationships are really about & makes sure she is with the right person before marrying them & having kids.
