New summer residence
Is that so wise? Prince Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands (44) and his wife Máxima (40) have, according to BBC reports, bought a holiday residence in Greece. The Sparapelle of the government, addressed to all Dutch - including the royal family -, at least for the two do not seem to find full hearing.
New anger is therefore inevitable for Willem-Alexander and Maxima . Only recently, the two had to separate again from a sinfully expensive Africa villa. The Dutch complained of the greed of the crown prince couple and railed against the immense cost all-around guarding of the Royals in the distance. Willem-Alexander and Máxima buckled in and reluctantly sold their possessions.
But now they realize their dream in white near the city of Kranidi. In a prominent neighborhood. Supposedly, Vladimir Putin and Sean Connery are constantly lodge nearby. How much of the heir to the throne in the crisis-ridden country had to file for the luxury property is not officially known. Maybe the villa is also a bargain, insiders insist, knowing that in the rumor mill a purchase price of 4.5 million euros makes the rounds.
But Willem-Alexander and Máxima are also offered a lot. So they are allowed in their new summer residence by the sea with a pool and a private beach. Bathing fun is as guaranteed, trouble at home too, because the security effort should be similar in Greece as in the discarded Africa idyll, was immediately noted by skeptics. However, in order to silence critics in advance, the royal family immediately warned that the security services would be paid out of the private casket.
Willem-Alexander and Máxima allegedly fell in love with their estate in 2010 when they attended the wedding of Prince Nikolaos of Greece and Tatiana Blatnik. That the purchase of the house in connection with the ski accident of Willem-Alexander's brother Friso is pure speculation. But there are voices saying that the crown prince couple would rather spend their holidays by the sea than in the mountains.
