Queen Maxima and King Willem-Alexander celebrate their teen daughter Princess Alexia

Queen Maxima and King Willem-Alexander have another teenager on their hands. The royal couple’s daughter Princess Alexia celebrated her 13th birthday on Tuesday, June 26. To mark the occasion, the Dutch Royal Palace shared an official portrait of the birthday girl with a message that read: “Princess Alexia is celebrating her thirteenth birthday today.” The teenager looks all grown-up in the image leaning against a wall, while wearing a velvet black dress and styling her hair down in loose waves to frame her face.

The photograph was taken back in March at the royal palace in Amsterdam. Photographer Erwin Olaf took the image along with others featuring her parents and sisters Princess Catharina-Amalia, 14, and Princess Ariane, 11. Photos from the glamorous shoot were first shared in April to celebrate the King's 5th anniversary of enthronement.

The Dutch royal family has been through a difficult period as of late. Maxima’s younger sister Ines Zorreguieta took her own life in early June.
