Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real Jorge Zorreguieta was Argentina's Minister of Agriculture during the Dirty War; his absence at the 2002 wedding remains one of Dutch monarchy's most calculated PR moves.
Bram van der Vlugt had played Prime Minister Wim Kok in three previous productions, making this essentially his farewell to the role.
