Not uncharted territory
The Queen of the Big Apple is no stranger. Queen Máxima is a frequent visitor to New York as Special Advocate of the United Nations. Máxima also lived in the city for a while before becoming engaged to then-Crown Prince Willem-Alexander. You can read more about Maxima's life before becoming a princess here.

Their daughter-in-law Countess Eloise and great-niece Isabella van Vollenhoven are both going to do internships in the big American city.
