From what I gather, she and the late Prince Claus, always made it clear to the two younger sons that they should find a fulfilling job/ life outside the RF.
As an outsider, I think this has led to a much normal (and healthy) family dynamic where 'the spare' is not jealous of all the attention the heir gets. And a situation where the spare gets pushed aside by nieces and nephews (children of the heir) also does not cause bad blood.
Hopefully (and from what I read it seems so) the present generation of royal parents to (young) children takes note and will allow and even stimulate their younger children to shape their own lives away from the crown.
