  • Amalia has faced previous security threats, including a 2020 conviction involving Instagram threats and a 2022 incident forcing her to abandon student life in Amsterdam for Madrid.
  • Queen Maxima previously described the situation as having "enormous consequences for her life", noting the Princess "can't leave home", though the Royal House did not immediately comment.
