Copied from the Wittelsbach topic in which Sophie-Alexandra Evekink's, the new princess Sophie of Bavaria is discussed.
Are you sure Mabel Los belongs to one of the patrician (or deftige) families in the Netherlands? I assume her stepfather does but the surnames 'Los' (her father) and 'Kooman' (her mother) don't seem to indicate any high-born family background for Mabel herself.
It remains rather rare to take on your stepfather's surname -especially when he only came into your life while a teenager, so I cannot help but think that the name itself had something to do with it (next to hopefully an excellent relationship with her stepfather).
Didn't Princess Luisa Maria of Belgium also study at Sevenoaks?
N.B. Wikipedia indicates that also prince Amedeo, princess Elisabeth of Thurn und Taxis as well as Sir Timothy Laurence attended the school.
Luana also participated in an Arts exhibition in 2021.
Yes, Evekink, van Voorst Evekink, Busger Evekink.
A Jeanette van Voorst Evekink née Willet Holthuyzen lived in one of Amsterdam's finest mansions: https://www.amsterdammuseum.nl/locaties/huis-willet-holthuysen/2466 That is an indication of the Evekinks belonging to deftige families without being of nobility. Like Pieter van Vollenhoven, Annemarie Guáltherie van Weezel, Mabel Wisse Smit.

Luana van Oranje-Nassau van Amsberg seems to study at Sevenoaks in Kent. Last year she won the Itchenor sailing event (a fleet racing event featuring 72 boats from 16 schools) for Sevenoaks, together with partner Martin Etilla.
