I think it also has to do with how she accepts her royal role. The new generation of crown princesses by marriage in Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium and Spain are very active with the people and seem to greatly enjoy being in the spotlight and being seen. From what people are saying, Angela is shyer than these other princesses. Also, her husband isn't the first in line to the throne. I looked them both up on Wikipedia, and Prince Max has an older brother, and the older brother has quite a few children of his own. Since she isn't the "crown princess" so to speak, she may not have as many royal duties as she would have had her husband been first in line. From what people are saying of her temperament, she probably doesn't mind being able to live her life with her husband and little boy without having to see it constantly on the news and in magazines.
From her page on Wikipedia, she does sound extremely talented and smart. I thought that it was very interesting how she designed her own wedding dress. How many of these young crown princesses could have that to their credit?
