Thank you for your very interesting pics, Verde Esmeralda.
And now, for once, I garee with the article who stats that she is the more prepared prince to convert herself in a Queen. All of you knows that I'm a little exigent in this matter. I'm not biased to her for she is Argentinian (of course you have all the rights in the world to suppose I am!
). But no...She has a lot of things that could make of her a good Queen:
-She is from an ancient Patrician Argentinian family (The Zorreguieta's family tree goes straight to the Middle Age. The Zorreguietas were nobility) and was educated in a high cultured ambiance.
-She is not a snob. She lives naturally and seems not to be bothered by Royal Ceremonial. She accepts it nicely and goes on without complaining.
-She seems to have adapted very well to her new country.
-She is a strong person. She appears rarely as tired in her ceremonial duties in which she always appears smiling and even laughing.
-She accomplished largely her dinastic duties giving birth to three wonderful and also strong girls. Princess maxima went ahead with her official duties all through her pregnancies, and she have her babies easily. And only a few days after, she was perfectly well. When her last daughter was so ill, we never knew it before all the danger had already gone.
-She seems to go well along with her royal relatives, specially with her mother-in-law, the Queen (a thing that it is not always easy)
-She always appears smiling and happy when she is alongside her husband. One never can tells if someone is really in love to each other, but at least they seemed to be.
-She is bright.
-Her girls are educated in a tradition but at the same time not to stern education. The Princess and the Prince are along with them every time they can do it. The girls seems to have a great sense of family.
-She is not a cold woman. She can cry when someone's dead (Prince Claus one, for example) but also laugh and infect everyone there when she fins something funny.
But of course, she must improve some little points. For example:
-She must do something about her hair. She seems not to be able to find her proprer hairstyle. Her poor head is almost always a mess. She looks pretty fine when her hair is tied up.
-Her wardrobe is a little irregular. Some of her dresses are excellent. Others are a real disaster. She seems a woman that is going to make her errands every morning when she is wearing one of these...
-She shows her emotions a little bit too much in some occasions. I uses to laugh when I see the pics when she seems to be scared or amused or worried...But she MUST LEARN to be a little more discrete.
