Crown Princess Maxima - here is her life

[PeDe]

"- On my wedding day, I only have eyes for Willem-Alexander, said the Maxima before her wedding. Her prophecy came true, their balcony kiss lasted a quarter"

It was not love at first sight when Maxima met Willem-Alexander in april festival in Seville
But he was sympathetic, so she gave him her phone number in New York in the belief that he would never use it. Willem-Alexander on the other hand, had no intention of letting the brown-eyed woman disappear into the blue, when he wen to visit Maxima in America two months later. Willem-Alexander won on closer acquaintance, and he and Maxima quickly became a couple, although the public first got wind of it later.


Message to Dad
Maxima was unobtrusiveness himself and told not even his dad the truth about the new girlfriend, but claimed persistently that he was a foreign businessman, until she finally went to confession:
- Father, I got to know a Dutch prince, and got the answer:
- So it's hopefully the youngest?
- Nope, it's the crown prince.
- Are you mad, it sounded startled from Dad: - That acquaintance you see trouble with.
But Maxima already before Willem-Alexander came into the picture, had agreed with workplace Deutche Bank that she was being transferred to Brussels, followed his heart.


Won the Dutch hearts
With her charm and her lively nature, she also overcame the critics, after the initial disbelief had subsided among those who could not accept Maximas father, Jorge Zorreguietas past as Deputy Minister of Agriculture in the Argentine junta. Queen Beatrix on the other hand received her new daughter-in-law with open arms, but the idyll was not total. It took politics into romance, and Jorge was not welcome at the wedding of 2 February 2002. In solidarity with her husband Maximas mother, Maria Carmen, chose to stay away too. It was the pain of the parents' absence, mixed with the love of Willem-Alexander that made Maxima repeatedly reach for her handkerchief during the ceremony.
But all sadness was as blown away as the happy, newly married Crown Prince Couple took to the people's tribute to the balcony. Argentine Maxima, who had crossed many borders "to be where Willem-Alexander is", was finally reached the port. At his beloved. In Holland.


Maximas Personality
Maxima is completely in her own. That she pointed out early in the courtship days:
- I'm Latin. I will always be Latin in many respects. I dance, I sing and I will continue to dance and sing

Despite the classic styling and well-meaning advice about keeping it real, royal distance, bubbles Maxima imidlertidig still like a good vintage champagne, without lowering morale and belittle her position. Maxima is still one of the few royal aces, whose warm, vibrant personality breaks through. It is her so far to restrain herself just to please, and many royal celebrations were interrupted by her contagious laughter and happy digesti. Her great strength is simple, but unspeakably hard to live up to, because it can not be bought for money: She's just herself.

It was not love at first sight when Maxima met Willem-Alexander in april festival in Seville

When Maxima saw him the first time: eww, his teeth and he is big 
When Maxima knew who he was: omg, how fabulous he is, I´m so in love 

Just my speculation..

Why is she still an Argie and not just Dutch?  IMO, Maxi is the most starry-eyed of the all the CPs.  Mind you, Morey is like steel and Mati was really nervous in the years after the marriage.  When it comes to how they met, it seems really odd to me.  She's a Roman Catholic Argentinian banker by way of New York and they meet in Seville, Spain and they eventually marry and live in Holland.  Not exactly the girl next door.  It doesn't ring true.

OMG what a place! Totally paradise!

I feel embarassed that Maxi pretends to be some world authority on economics and banking and finance because I don't believe that she is.  For instance, she is now in Los Cabos, Mexico, making speeches to the G20 meetings.  It's truly scary!  I cringe at the thought.  She's so jumped up it's unbelievable.

She does have an economics degree and she did work at a bank  and i bet she keeps tabs on whats going .I don't think she is a dummy ,  but in the end she is just a celebrity speaker asked to come and help them  filling in the timeslots.
