    Princess Alexia was all smiles on Sunday as she joined her parents Queen Maxima and King Willem-Alexander at the Dutch Grand Prix.

    Stepping out at the Circuit Park Zandvoort the Dutch princess, 19, looked ultra-stylish dressed in a knitted one shoulder top which she paired with matching black wide-leg trousers.

    Queen Maxima looked elegant in a printed wrap skirt and a lime green long-sleeved top while King Willem-Alexander looked dapper dressed in a smart suit and a duck egg blue shirt.

    During their visit, the family appeared in high spirits, opting to pose for numerous group shots including a sweet snapshot next to driver Max Verstappen's car.

    Princess Alexia's outing comes shortly before she's set to embark on a huge move. While she's currently based in The Netherlands, come September, she'll travel to the UK where she's set to enrol at University College London.

    The young royal will study Science and Engineering for Social Change but according to the NL Times, the second daughter of King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima made her decision somewhat last minute, enrolling herself on several different courses at different universities until she made her decision.

    Princess Alexia is heading to university in September

    Back in June, the 19-year-old admitted she was "a bit stressed about choosing" where to study, with other options including the University of Groningen in the Netherlands.

    This isn't the first time she's studied abroad, however. The Dutch royal already has a close connection to the UK, having studied for her two-year International Baccalaureate at UWC Atlantic College in Wales and graduating in 2023.

    Alexia's father attended the same Welsh school between 1983 and 1985 while he was Crown Prince.

    Aside from Alexia, King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima are also doting parents to Princess Catharina-Amalia, 20, and Princess Ariane, 17.

    Their eldest daughter is currently studying for a PPLE degree, which consists of politics, psychology, law and economics, while youngest Ariane is currently studying at UWC Adriatic.
