Both CA and Alexia look stunning - good color choices for both of them and love Alexia’s re-wear.  Maxima as always overstated but toned down color, looks nice.  Laurentien is another, always over the top, hot pink - uh, no!

I thought so, too but didn’t want to comment on CA’s or anyone’s weight.  Just hope they didn’t do the Ozempic route.

But Amalia looks very nice and much more confident. Why has it has to be Ozempic? Maybe she lost weight in a normal way, dieting, exercising.

Alexia is looking pretty like always. Who else has lost weight? Maxima does look the same, so does Laurentien.

I think that is the only possible explanation, or Ozempic or something similar. It's one thing to criticize people for their weight, another to comment on a physical change that, because it's so fast and obvious, has led many viewers to the same conclusion... because, after all, it's a topic of current interest in society.

A few months ago, Maxima appeared much thinner in a short time. Now we see that in just two months of summer, the family in general is thinner. I think she tried it and because it worked for her, other members of the family have tried it.

From what has been published about Maxima, she has fought against her weight all her life and has gone on diets, and at one point she even had health problems that the press linked to diets. The Oranjes are genetically people with a large bone structure and who tend to be overweight.

Losing weight with diets and exercise is not something that can be achieved in one or two months, and even less so for people who have fought against their weight for many years and have not lost it.

I have always had the impression that Máxima gives more importance to her daughters' physical appearance, clothing, makeup, etc. than to other aspects of their public life. Amalia has the genetics she has and I only hope that her mother does not put too much pressure on her to have a certain appearance or to resort to certain things that could harm her in the long run.

And speaking of the priorities in the public life of these girls, I was negatively surprised that despite being the second year she attended the event, Alexia seemed totally lost about what she should do, such as saluting the flag or the authorities. The only thing that saved her was imitating what her uncle did.

That is disturbing and a failing on the part of WAX and Max.

Alexia should never be unprepared for such an engagement and more importantly she should never be publicly seen as unprepared. As heir of adult age, she needs a private secretary that will keep her up to speed and/or prep her for public engagements and state occasions.

They did not manage Alexia's appearances very well in the last few years - which resulted in a lot of (unnessary) criticism. It started with the ridiculous posing at an age where she was well able to understand her parent's job - but after it happened, it did happen again. Apparently, nobody talked to her about it (or she did not listen). She could be a real asset, also to her sister, also later in life. She is very good looking, intelligent, has a spark. But they need to change her preparation. Same happened to Amalia on that Carribean trip.

About Amalia: The pressure on her must be immense, so even if she used Ozempic to lose the weight: It might give her a new body feeling and might be the entrance to a healthier lifestyle.

I fear the opposite. It could be seen as an example of there being an easy way out of difficult circumstances. As in don't do the real work. That said I am a big believer in better living through chemistry but mostly for mood or hormal regulation. It's possible she had a medical doctor advising the whole time saying it was appropriate if there were special conditions that we don't know about her health. If mommy suggested it out of the blue as a way to make her daughter feel better then I'm really scared because Amalia shouldn't turn into Victoria at Silvia's hands all over again. Now who knows what is going on but she does look smaller for sure. She looks good now but did then too. She's actually gorgeous and has the height to pull off a larger body.

I'd be concerned if it is Ozempic as she is still so young that starting on that route now would be bad IMO. That said, she is only 20 years old and that age a lot of people can put on and loose weight quite quickly with not huge changes to routines and diets so I'm not convinced she will have turned to Ozempic or similar just yet. I'd hope her parents would also suggest a change in routine before allowing anything like that.

She looks healthier which only really matters if it makes her feel better in herself.

I think the girls looked great, Alexia seems to have matured and wasn’t giving pouty looks. Amalia looks fab, having ditched the ever present overcoat. Maxima is kinda looking old and the big bow did nothing for the outfit.

I guess if ozempic has been used, then we’ll gradually see the weight creep back on. But if the whole family have refocused and decided to get fit together then its probably more motivating for them all. They’ve just had a 2 month holiday so could have concentrated on their fitness. Plus Amalia is now back in the netherlands and the stress of her situation has diminished which may have stopped any stress eating going on.

All the royal ladies look good.

I like Max in the that pale bluish-green shade.  Her gown is really nice, but the giant bow makes me want to grab my trusty seam ripper.  On second thought,  I might need something bigger to dispose of it.  Maybe a machete.

The teal blue is great color on Amalia, but her gown, like most every Safiyaa design, has too much going on with the cut-out in front and the trailing sleeves.

Alexia looks great and very grown up.  Good on her for recycling one of Max's old gowns.

This is a pretty good appearance for Laurentien.  The pink is a good shade on her, but she needs some better foundation garments.
