Dutch princess Catharina-Amalia, the future queen of the Netherlands, has moved into a mansion in The Hague and “can’t really go out” in a sharp reversal of her plans to go to college and live like a “regular student”.
“It has huge consequences for his life,” Queen Maxima said at a press conference Thursday during a state visit to Sweden. “It means she doesn’t live in Amsterdam and she can’t really go out.”
The princess has made an effort to try to live a more normal life, giving up the allowance she was entitled to when she turned 18, a sum of approximately $ 1.9 million a year.
“I find it uncomfortable until I’m doing a lot in return and the other students are having a lot more trouble,” Amalia wrote in a letter to Prime Minister Mark Rutte regarding her decision.

According to Euronews, local media reported that Amalia’s name appeared in communications between organized crime gangs, raising fears of an attack or kidnapping.
