She goes to so much trouble - but the suffering is clearly visible

Brave Princess Mabel (44)! The wife of Prince Friso of Orange-Nassau (44), who has been in a coma for over a year after an avalanche accident, now and then dares to do small jobs for a good cause. But you really do not seem to be doing that.

Now Mabel was jetted from her home in London to her old home to watch the premiere of the movie "Hoch wie ein Affenbrotbaum" in a movie theater in The Hague as a guest of honor. This is about forced marriages of children. A problem that, Mabel told the premiere guests, deserves our attention. After all, the souls of the children would be sacrificed, because most of them, like the heroines of the film, would not be able to resist this compulsion.

But Mabel's soul seems to cry too . She was wearing a black robe that night, barely made-up, as you could see on photos showing her entering the cinema. A darkness that signals hopelessness .
