To me this is a missed opportunity if not a sneer. Yes Princess Beatrix was there but Willem-Alexander and Maxima should have been there as well.
Some people on these Boards were wondering why The Princess Royal (UK) and also The Prince Sovereign (Monaco) will be among the royal mourners tomorrow but they too haved a seat in the IOC, just like the late Grand Duke had.

From the Luxembourg Grand Ducal Website:
"Passionate about sport, Grand Duke Jean presided over the Luxembourg Olympic & Sports Committee. He was also a member of the International Olympic Committee and practiced in particular tennis, horse riding and skiing.
