Danish Royal Watchers: Happy birthday Prince Henrik!

Happy Birthday Prince Henrik
he was such a dashingly handsome young man and they are so in love in their wedding photos OMG is beautiful to see 40 years later the love is even deeper. he's my favorite of all the grandpa consorts. he just seems like the kind of man with old world manners (you know he stands up when a woman walks in the room (my dad still does, usually the only one) and is charming and funny with an open loving relationship with his grandchildren. no wonder the queen is still openly crazy about him.

Lucien, Mary wasn't there last night. The woman is actually Gustav's girlfriend, author Carina Axelsson.



More engagements have been added to the Reigning couple's June 2007 calender via the Royal Palace announcements.

Take a look here to view what I have added the June 2007 calender.

Meanwhile, though it is old news, Queen Margrethe met with the Mexican President at Fredensborg Slot on June 9 (if you remeber I mentioned it in the old topic). Someone was kind wnough to post various photos from Gettyimages. Please click here to view the photo series with commentary.

GlitteringTiaras,I know it is Carina Axelsson,but concerning the captions I referrred to the "New Year Reception",as that is how the link is named by the site,hence "lousy captions".I would change it if I could,but it's RPE,they often got the names wrong,or the event,which I think is a shame as they are otherwise such professionals,not in the spelling/naming department.


O/T here,but just another example:

Same photographer,different agency,but the text is lousy/sloppy,they have the text/age of the grand old lady wrong....performing miracles is one thing,but they went overboard here.......

performing miracles is one thing,but they went overboard here.......

Prinsesse Lillian would probably had a good laugh out of this if she saw it.

Aquarela, I agree with you.
DRF are nice and very simple.

Thanks for the photos, I think it's lovely that they included their grandchildren in their photos.

However I hope that doesn't detract from the fact that they are celebrating such a milestone.

I don't think that it will. I think that Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik wanted to show something that makes them happy, and I really can't think of anything that makes them happier than their grandchildren. They have Nikolai and Felix, who are both growing up fast, Prince Christian, who is just too cute for words, and they are still over the moon about their grandaughter, who is already getting spoiled by all those boys, you can tell.

[Little_star]

No but 40 years is such a massive achievement and it's easy to forget that when looking at all those cute little faces.

That's bizarre. When I click the link the captions were correct, Lucien.

Thanks anyway and agreeing with UserDane, I believe she would get a kick out of it as well.

I found a close-up of Lillepigen when Henrik's holding her...

This is from a blog called littleroyals. It's in Dutch, so I don't know where they got it! Sorry!

But anyway, Henrik's tie has Mickey Mouses on it. I thought that was a really sweet idea for having a picture with his grandkids. I'm sure Mickey is something that even little Christian recognizes. I bet it's a favorite with the grandkids.

Sorry if it's OT, but I just thought that it was cool that Henrik likes Mickey Mouse, just like me!

When deciding on the official images to commemorate their 40th wedding anniversary, doting grandparents Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik knew exactly what they wanted. The Danish royals chose to mark the special occasion by posing with the youngest members of the royal brood - for a series of snaps with their four grandchildren.
