Amsterdam, August 18 — Princess Catharina-Amalia, heir to the Dutch throne and the future Queen of the Netherlands, has become the victim of a deepfake pornography attack after morphed explicit videos of her surfaced online, sparking outrage across the country.
The manipulated content, reportedly generated using artificial intelligence (AI) tools, was circulated on several social media platforms and messaging groups in recent days. Dutch authorities have confirmed that they are closely monitoring the situation and taking steps to identify the source of the material.
The Dutch royal family has not yet issued a formal statement, but government officials expressed concern about the growing misuse of deepfake technology. Lawmakers in the Netherlands have described the incident as “disturbing and unacceptable,” calling for stronger regulations to curb the spread of AI-generated sexual content.
Experts note that deepfake pornography has become an increasing global challenge, disproportionately targeting women, including celebrities and public figures. Advocacy groups have urged platforms to act more quickly to detect and remove such material before it spreads widely.
Princess Amalia, 20, has previously faced security concerns, including threats from organised crime groups, which forced her to live under heightened protection. The latest attack has reignited discussions about the vulnerability of young royals and public figures in the digital era.
Police investigations are ongoing, and legal measures are being considered against those found guilty of creating or distributing the manipulated videos
