Maxima isn’t the Crown Princess, I think. She is just a Princess.
I am glad we have another little Princess, she is fourth in row for the thrown, after her father as King we will almost certainly have Queen again, girlpower

she is actually a crown princess because when Willem Alexander becomes king she will ben queen. But it’s true about the girl power!! Go Amalia!

Such a cutie!!! Going to be beautiful just like her two big sisters, Amalia and Alexia and her mother!! There goes 5 bucks though. Lol. I made a bet with a friend about whether the baby was going to be a girl or boy. I guessed boy since the royal family already has two daughters, but my friend said it was going to be a girl according to her “instincts”. Oh well. Glad that the little arrived safe and sound. That’s all that matters. Predicting she will be named either Alicia or Anastasia. Amalia, Alexia and Alicia/Anastasia, sounds fit to me.
