The Netherlands in 1984: Princess Juliana 75th birthday

[coolview66]

Forgive me if it is offending...But somehow I find this lady the most clumsy and awkward royal ever..Not just in this video..right from her youth to wedding to old age all her pics and vids are so bad...

@coolview66 Queen Juliana was a painfully shy person. The very thought of speaking, or even appearing in public, made her ill and It took a great deal of courage on her part to do so. It was this mixture of shyness and courage that made people love her so much.

Was there a reason for the abdication? She looks very young.

[Maasdam1993]

@Rexanify actually this speech was 4 years after abdication. The reason she abdicate was that with 70 she found it more and more difficult to do here work as Queen.
