Yes, they are young and enjoy their lives. But I wonder how and when this party will end. And I do hope this won´t be an awakening all too uncomfortable.

They have a wealthy mother and they do study and go to good schools/ universities. Their lifestyle is not different from that of other similarly rich kids in the United States or the United Kingdom. I don’t see any problem with that especially considering that their lifestyle is privately funded unlike what happens in most reigning royal families.
The monarchy is unlikely to be ever restored in Greece or given a semiofficial role of some sort as in Romania. So there is no point in pretending otherwise.

They don't owe Greece anything. Quite the opposite. They are young and like to have fun, travel and be with friends.
They do what other young royals did at that age.
If the Royal Family were still reigning in Greece they would have a more traditional lifestyle suited to their position similar to the lifestyle their Spanish and Danish cousins lead.

Compared to for example their Portuguese contemporaries (and somewhat older: the royals from Serbia, Montenegro, Albania) I would say yes... It might have a lot to do with them being much more part of the 'rich and famous' thanks to their mother.
The Dutch Bourbon-Parmas might live a privileged life but not a frivolous one: two of them try/tried to make a difference by for example diplomacy, the head of the family concentrates on consultancy on the environment; only one moved into 'design jewelry' with a husband in business development (not frivolous either) - her sister's husband of course works in their family business (and in that way is part of one of the richer families in the Netherlands).
I would say only some of the Bulgarian royals might live a somewhat similar lifestyle but that seems primarily to apply to the children of Rosario and not to the seem degree to the 'main' family: Miriam, Boris and Beltran.
Which other young royals from former monarchies were you thinking of that live a comparable lifestyle to the the crown princely family of Greece?

 Save Venice is responsible for the conservation of nearly 1,700 works of art and architecture since its inception in 1971. Every year, its patrons organize a masked ball in New York City to support the organization's mission

Maria Machado does not have photos on her instagram account with Constantine Alexios, but I imagine that Machado's friend knows very well that in the photo shared by Constantine Alexios, she is her friend whom he is kissing.

After doing some research, would the aforementioned person be Giulia Bourguignon Marinho , also known as Giulia Be?

I would say that Prince Constantine is not a good student, but he has to graduate in a relevant university.Bachelor of Arts English... this for a French, a Spanish, a German, this makes a lot of sense, but for a person whose first language is English and who also started in Georgetown studying international relationships...
