The royal couple went on vacation when the country closed
As the country closed against the pandemic, the Dutch royal couple took the government plane to Greece on vacation. But after massive criticism, they are now going home again.

Following a sharp increase in the number of infections, the Dutch authorities sharpened their advice this week so that the population, among other things, refrain from unnecessary travel. In a televised speech, Prime Minister Mark Rutte advised the public not to “test the limits of the rules.”
Willem-Alexander and Máxima have their own villa in Greece. As early as August, they ended up in corona weather, after breaking the rules to keep their distance during a vacation in the Mediterranean country, writes the AFP news agency.
Willem-Alexander, now 53, has been the monarch of the Netherlands since 2013. She is the mother of a descendant of the 16th-century Swedish king Gustav Vasa.
