Princess Máxima was born in a vibrant world city (Buenos Aires), made a career in another vibrant world city (New York) and mingled with the happy few higher up in society. Already as an adolescent Máxima had a supscription on the Teatro Colón (the grand Opera House in Buenos Aires). Maybe for listening to Die Zauberflöte or Tosca but also very much to mingle "in the right milieus".
Countess Stéphanie de Lannoy was born by very old parents, lived deep in the calm and pleasant countryside of Hainaut, on the ancestral Château d'Anvaing. Maybe that makes a difference: with Máxima a "world-wise" lady entered the palace and she "demanded" the royal credit-card. Countess Stéphanie came from total different background, where modesty, a sober life and sustainability are virtues? Who knows? Luxembourg is also not exactly the most swinging city, so maybe that makes that she still is the eh... "duckling" whom still is in sleep for her transformation into a swan...
