From the moment Máxima Zorreguieta appears at the Dutch crown prince’s
side, she finds herself in the spotlight. When Willem-Alexander asks her
to marry him, the past catches up with her. Heated discussion erupts
about her father’s political career in the Videla regime, a discussion
she never faced in her own circles. What allows

this Argentine to
finally thrive at an old European court? And how can Máxima stay true to
herself without giving up her family, or do these things not go
together?
The series will kick off with a present-day storyline starting in 1999
in Seville, when Máxima and Willem-Alexander meet for the first time. It

will then transition into a second storyline set in the past, where we
see how Máxima was prepared for this step her entire life. When the
press catches wind of her relationship with the crown prince, the pair
find themselves on a roller coaster, that only slows down with the
announcement of their engagement in 2001.
