According to Her og Nu, Alexandra has sais that her friend's breast cancer opened her eyes to the simple things in life, and she now appreciates life much more.

Also, I've also just come across another video of her visit to the Parkinson's flat, here:

I've just come across this article from today, but I can't really make sense of it - could anybody help me? Thanks!

Also, there's a video here, along with photos, of the Countess opening the breast-cancer clinic: stiften.dk - Århus: VIDEO: Alexandra støtter også brysterne - stiften.dk - Artikler og nyheder fra Århus og Østjylland, Favrskov, Odder, Skanderborg, Norddjurs og Syddjurs. Opdateret hele dagen.

She said that she was "quite glad that I am able to participate in highlighting breast cancer, which is a serious disease, 41.000 women are hit by in Denmark, and that puts 4000 new cases each year" and that women should definitely get themselves screened for it, saying that "Screening can help many. I am glad to be able to help to highlight it here."

Countess Alexandra presented the Logistics prize 2008. But the article itself discusses only logistics, not Alexandra.

 

[sgl]

What is the Logistics prize? Was Alexandra there on behalf of a patronage?

 

[Viv]

What is the Logistics prize?

I know what logistics means in the broadest sense, but I haven't got the foggiest about the finer points of the Logistics award! . However I found something on the company website:

Chr. Hansen: Chr. Hansen wins prestigious logistics award

Was Alexandra there on behalf of a patronage?

No, I don't think so! None of her patronages are covering this particular resort.

 

[sgl]

Very interesting! I didn't know that they had a high-profile awards event for this industry. Thank you, Viv, for the links.

 

[alex001]

So does anybody know if this award is something she's been giving out every year, or something she's only started to participate in this year?

 

[alex001]

Apparently the staff at the D'Angleterre Hotel are getting irritated with the Countess' 'contempt' for parking rules, as she parks illegally outside the hotel for hours upon end:
Metroxpress - Alexandra blæser på færdselsloven

I was under the impression that she'd bought a holiday home in Turkey, but apparently it was lent to them by Remee, the X-factor judge.

Oh, dear - oh, dear thank God for the parking rules. Elsehow Se og hør wouldn't have any thing to write about.

Se og Hør is Se og Hør and will remain to be Se og Hør...........

 

[sgl]

Is this the same magazine that reported the parking ticket? Are they sponsored by the department of motor vehicles?

 

[Lilla]

Is this the same magazine that reported the parking ticket?

Yes, it is . This magazine is reporting about things very important to the world - such as parking tickets

Hello,

Billed-Bladet - Alexandras vilde nat med veninderne

[Paty]

I found a recent video of Countess Alexandra. Can some Danish member tell us what is about?

http://www.bt.dk/clip/44/410

 

[alex001]

I beleieve the title translates as "Alexandra: Worried for the small princes", but I'm not sure why she's worried.

 

[JessRulz]

Alexandra has apparently done a television interview with Bo Reimer, which will air on November 27 at 20:00, on DR1. In the interview, the Countess discusses about her marriage to Prince Joachim, their divorce, the two boys, and her new life with Martin.

[Lilla]

She was asked whether she was worried about her childrend and what might happen when they become teenagers.

 

[Lena]

Desperate Countess at prime time. Me in her position would have refused this...definitely.
But it means entertainment for us...and isn´t it that, what it is all about...

If she is worried about her children, she should maybe not give interviews and get them into the limelight.
If they would prefer it, Nicolai and Felix could probably lead a perfectly protected nearly anonymous life as adults.
After all they will have 2-3 cousins ahead in line to the throne and I could imagine Marie´s baby would get a little bit more attention, since he/she will grow up at the prince...

 

[Lilla]

It isn't my impression that she expresses more nor less worrying then other parents would express if they were asked the same kind of stupid questions by Billedbladet as she was........

But you are right about this being entertainment..............and that is all it is about...

I agree about not giving an interview. Interesting......J & M announce her pregancy...Alexandra now gives an interview.....

 

[sgl]

I am hoping that those of us not lucky enough to live in Denmark will be able to see the video on the internet! Perhaps some kind member will be able to post a link?

Royal 77, the basics are mentioned in posts 18 &19.

I take it that Billed-Bladet is hyping the coming interview with Alexandra! I seriously doubt that she'll throw any tid-bits about her marriage and divorce as they say she will!

I too find the timing a bit odd....

[Viv]

Tonight's the night for the TV-interview with countess Alexandra and the former DR-TV- mr. News, Reimer Bo Christensen. The interview will air on DR TV channel 1 at 20.00 LT.

This week's issue of Billed-Bladet is speculationg whether the timing of the interview is a coincidence (with the announcement of Marie's pregnancy): Royal author & pundit Jon Bloch Skipper suggests that Alexandra may find it's about time to underline that her relationship with Joachim is fine. Or something to that effect.

DR has not revealed much about the contents: According to BB, Alexandra will drop a hint that from the onset of their relationship "someone" did not exactly wish them the best .....

whatever that means will perhaps be revealed tonight ... !

I for one do not expect some discount Bashir-like stunt. Countess Alexandra is supposedly too clever for that!

 

[Paty]

Does is she refering to her relationship with Martin?

 

[Viv]

Does is she refering to her relationship with Martin?

IMO it would be odd if she didn't!
One of us (the Danish TRF-members) will let you know as soon as possible!

I am sort of disappointed in her. So far she behaved with class. What on earth does she have to talk about with the media?. Whatever happened with her marriage divorce and remarriage is in the past. Now it is her time to be a private citizen and enjoy the peace and quiet.

I think it is to soon to be disappointed .

So far non of us knows what will be said in the interview. I would be very surprised if she is anything else but the professional Princess/Countess she has alwayes been.

Or something to that effect.

I have just watched the programe on DR1. Jon Bloch Skipper was right. Alexandra did underline that her relationship with Joachim is fine. She said they are very, very good friends.

According to BB, Alexandra will drop a hint that from the onset of their relationship "someone" did not exactly wish them the best .....

whatever that means will perhaps be revealed tonight ... !

I must say BB has been speculating in quit the wrong direction. It was not a "someone" but "some". AND the "some" are the media .

I for one do not expect some discount Bashir-like stunt. Countess Alexandra is supposedly too clever for that!

She was as I expected. Intelligent, reflecting, loyal, warm and professionel. The exact same wonderful person she has alwayes been
