there has been talk and different toughts on the ruby dimond tiara that mary wears
What will happen if she divorces frederik will she keep it or use it as Alexandra uses the tiara that was loan to he

Maty has two tiaras today it may be so that after a divorce she will use her wedding tiara

but that only my thought n the subject

crisiñaki posted this at frederik and mary forum she found it at Diez Minutos

I certainly hope she won't get to keep the ruby parure.
It's history stretches back to the first Bernadotte queen of Sweden in the beginning of the 19th century.
And it's very much connected to Queen Ingrid.
Can you imagine what would happen if Mary divorced Frederik, she kept the tiara, got in financial problems, put it on an auction and someone like Madonna or Paris Hilton bought it ??
I wouldn't know if I would laugh or cry at a situation like that ... :(

No that wouldnt happen, If they did divorce she would keep her wedding tiara. That is a wedding present and belongs to her. She owns it. The Ruby Parure does not belong to her. It belongs to Federick or just the Crown Princess in general. She has no claim to it but as being the future Queen Consort she is allowed to wear it.

She would probably use it for a necklace for Tinkerbelle, or whatever that desert rat is called she's carrying around all the time

And poor Queen Ingrid would be turning around in her grave. Oh, what an awful thought :(

Why on earth the speculation here that Mary and Frederick may divorce ? Has something happened to cause some people to think something is wrong with the marriage?

Through a dear friend of mine who approached a most reliable source...

It is said that the brooch was infact a present from HM the Queen to her daughter in-law upon the arrival of Prince Christian.

The brooch is also said to have belonged to HRH the Princess Margaret of Connaught (later Crown Princess of Sweden...mother of HM the Queen Consort Ingrid of Denmark) and dates back to the 1800's.

The craftmanship is superb.

It is a sapphire centre, encrusted with diamonds and at the base hang two strands of cultured pearls, complimented with diamond and pearl drops.

Simply breathtaking!!!

Wouldn't it be great for Mary to start a tradition on handing her sapphire brooch down to her son's (christian's) wife to use at their babie's christening? and so on. I would love to see that brooch used over and over for such a special ocassion. :)

Mary has some new jewels on her trip to Germany. I noticed she has a couple of new rings, one in yellow gold, and a large amethyst, plus necklace and earrings at the evening function. Can't see the necklace and earrings at the evening function clearly. Maybe some birthday pressies from Fred?

The Queen Desiree diamond & ruby parure - once owned by the first Bernadotte Queen of Sweden, Queen Desideria. The tiara and its matching parure were ordered in Paris by Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte, her husband & King, to be worn to the 1805 Imperial Coronation of Napoleon I of France.
