On Tuesday, the Dutch people celebrated the coronation of Willem-Alexander and Máxima, king and queen of the Netherlands.

Meet the Argentinean-born Máxima, whose husband, Willem-Alexander, officially took control of the Dutch throne this week.

Máxima, 41, is a tall, statuesque blonde, with charming good looks.

As a mother to three daughters, Catharina-Amalia, Alexia, and Ariane, Máxima has passed her style down to the next generation.

When asked by a Dutch television host whether they liked each other from the start, Máxima resolutely answered “No.”
