The Netherlands

-King Willem-Alexander I, Queen Maxima, Princess Margriet & Prof. Pieter van Vollenhoven
 released new portraits for 2020 on Thursday {Photos}
Before people panic about Princess Beatrix or the Triple A team not getting new portraits, it's said that Princess Beatrix was still satisfied with the portraits of her from 2017, and we will likely get new portraits of the other princesses for their birthdays in April, June and December 2020, if not earlier for the family photo calls throughout 2020.

On Thursday, the future queen and her consort visited Stockholm's city mission and its operations with job training for people who want to approach the labor market {Photos}
Prince Daniel is a member of the Board, and the Foundation's aim is to promote cultural and art activities in Sweden. One of their first projects will be to install a sculpture park in the summer of 2020. I suspect with her name attached to it, that Princess Estelle may take a seat on the board when she's older or act as patroness, and make appearances at some events in the future.

Unlike her sister's event in October 2018, due to her father's "issues" and the wishes of the couple, it's unlikely her wedding will be a public event. However, we may be given photographs of the event later, similar to the wedding of Lady Gabriella Kingston to May 2019.
