King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima of The Netherlands proudly shared a photo of their second child, Princess Alexia, on Monday, as she left for the UK to start college.
The image, taken by the king, shows the 16-year-old royal wearing a red and black checked jacket with ripped pale blue jeans and white trainers as she held two large bags and a face covering outside the royal family's home, Huis ten Bosch Palace, in The Hague.
Princess Alexia will study for her International Baccalaureate at the UWC Atlantic College in Llantwit Major, Wales, for the next two years. She finished the fourth grade of the Christelijk Gymnasium Sorghvliet in The Hague in the summer.
