The Fresh Prince of Belgium
Belgian Prince Emmanuel has quietly embarked on a promising DJ career, using the stage name DJ Vyntrix.
At just 19 years old, he is the youngest child of King Philip and Queen Mathilde and enjoys spinning tracks in his leisure time, as reported by Het Laatste Nieuws.
Since his secretive debut as a DJ, Emmanuel’s Instagram presence has skyrocketed, surpassing 10,000 followers. Last month, he surprised fans with two new tracks, launching the upbeat “Rio” on June 16 and the aptly titled “Palace.”
Emmanuel de Sachs is credited as the composer of these tracks, showcasing his hidden talent as a saxophonist, a nod to his Saxophone Coberg lineage.
This young royal, third in line to the Belgian throne, recently shared his music at a summer garden party hosted by Grand Duke Henri in Luxembourg at Berg Castle.
Grand Duke Henri is preparing for his abdication in October, paving the way for his eldest son, Guillaume, to take over. The Belgian royal family maintains a close relationship with their Luxembourg counterparts.
Josephine Charlotte, the mother of Grand Duke Henri, was the sister of Emmanuel’s grandfather, Albert II of Belgium. Emmanuel spent significant time growing up with his relatives in Luxembourg.
Beyond music, he is fluent in French, Dutch, and English and has completed an International Baccalaureate program, which is quite rigorous, similar to AP exams.
Emmanuel studied at Eureka School in Reuben, Belgium, and after finishing that, he is said to be pursuing language and sports training abroad.
According to various sources, he enjoys nature and participates in activities such as skiing, tennis, windsurfing, and running, in addition to playing the saxophone.
Interestingly, he seems particularly drawn to sports, having enrolled in a specialized program at a Spanish football academy. Last year, he trained in Spain and competed at the highest level of professional football, known as La Liga.
This trend of academic prowess appears to run in the family; Emmanuel’s older sister, Princess Elizabeth, is currently attending Harvard University and has already completed a degree in history and politics from Oxford.
In fact, she recently faced some uncertainty regarding her status as a student due to a conflict involving President Trump’s administration and international students, but she managed to navigate through it.
Elizabeth is the eldest of the four children of King Philip and Queen Mathilde and is also the heir to the Belgian throne.
