Red hair, a sweet smile and an innate elegance: we’re talking about Alexia of Holland, second daughter of King William Alexander and Maxima of Holland and younger sister of Princess Amalia, future sovereign of the Netherlands.
Born on June 26, 2005, Alexia of Orange-Nassau has another sister, Ariane, younger than two years. The three Princesses, by the will of the sovereigns, all bear names with A (although the future Queen was registered as Catharina-Amalia).
Like every young princess, Alexia too – like her sisters – has received a strict education: she can speak perfectly Dutch, English and Spanish. She is a sportswoman, loves skiing and horse riding.
Alexia is now studying at Christelijk Gymnasium Sorghvliet in The Hague, a high school that her older sister also attends, but from September she will take lessons at the United World College, the same prestigious institute to which another Princess, Leonor of Spain, is also enrolled.
The exclusive institute has been around for a long time chosen by the royal families, so much so that Alexia’s father, King William Alexander, also attended him from 1983 to 1985, before enrolling at the University of Leiden, where he studied History.
As for the daughter of Letizia and Felipe VI, Alexia’s studies will also last two years: the young royal will follow an international program which includes humanistic and scientific subjects, first of all diplomacy, languages and economics, and then theater courses and work experiences in contact with people belonging to the weakest categories.
But while Leonor of Spain will often return to her homeland to play her role as the future Queen, Alexia, as the second child, will probably live longer periods away from her home country and as often happens with the second children (Prince Harry teaches) is considered a bit ‘the rebel of the house.
In terms of charm and charm, Alexia can only compete with the beautiful Leonor of Spain: like her peer, she is beautiful and charming and with a certain taste in dressing, inherited from her mother Maxima.
Unlike the Princess of Spain, who is beginning to debut as the future Queen by attending events and also giving speeches alone, without Letizia and Felipe, for Alexia reigning is not in the programs: in fact, her elder sister, Amalia, will inherit the throne.
