Private: Elisabeth at Amalia's Party?

Tonight Princess Amalia of the Netherlands hosts a big private bash to celebrate she turned 18.

Will Crown Princess Elisabeth (20) be among the guests, or Princess Ingrid of Norway (18)? Just weeks ago the three young princesses were at the Norwegian gala for Ingrid's majority. 

Belgian court has commented the party is a private event, and they wish to respect that decision...

🇳🇱🇧🇪 Gaat Belgische prinses Elisabeth (20) straks naar feestje voor 18de verjaardag van collega Amalia in NL? Kreeg deze vraag van verschillende NL-se collega's.

💬 Feest is privé-evenement en koninklijk paleis in Brussel wil die beslissing respecteren. Daarom geen commentaar. pic.twitter.com/61lEYbJ62Y
