I liked her natural reddish hair color much better, but can understand that she wants to try something new
Interesting.Alexia has "main character" energy. I imagine she will remain in the Netherlands and play a supportive role to her sister in carrying out engagements . I can see her like a future Princess Margriet. I think the purpose of her getting a university education is just to say that she has an education. I don't forsee her for example going to work as an engineer for a large engineering firm in the UK or the Netherlands.
It definitely is not about ‘just having an education’. She is expected to get both a Bachelor and Master degree and be able to support herself. Her uncle prince Friso did an excellent job of that after getting his engineering degree.Alexia has "main character" energy.

Well, I remember everyone's surprise here when she changed careers and the reflections they had about their own impressions of her.I think the purpose of her getting a university education is just to say that she has an education.
I agree,Alexia talked about it herself at king’s day a few years ago. Just like their uncles, they are to have private careers that should be acceptable for a member of the royal family. They will support their sister but that will most likely mean occasionally undertake a royal event or engagement. Alexia explained that she is well aware of her position in that respect.

Whether she will be an employee, an entrepreneur or take a role in public service is up to her as long as it is appropriate for a princess of the Netherlands.
I didn’t know she had changed her degrees to civil engineering! How interesting. I think her previous course was more in the social impact scene if I remember correctly, so if so, what a change. Has alexia spoken about her time in London and how she is finding it? I believe Mabel may still live there (and possibly her cousins?) so she may have some family support.During king's day, when asked about her change to civil engineering, Alexia said that she is currently preparing for her exams, that she has to study hard but also has time to explore London.
