Frederik is on the cover of Her og Nu along with Joachim, and there is article along with it.

Click here to view. Finally, this magazine ran a story regarding Mary and Alexandra. According to the writer, they don't get along because Alexandra flirted with Frederik. Oh brother... Last edited by GlitteringTiaras; 03-05-2008 at 06:05 AM. Reason: To add another link |

Or, if not a full translation, then a 1-2 paragraph synopsis of its more important or relevant content, perhaps? Thank you, -- Abbie |

That's pretty much the jist of the articles (as I noted in the links several weeks ago), Abigail, and not much else.
All it says is that Frederik is allegedly a flirt, Alexandra allegedly flirts with Frederik. The Danes allegedly love Alexandra and that they were impressed that she learned to speak Danish, Marie is a very cute girl, but she is allegedly incredibly naive and allegedly not really a good prinsess material. The author also claims that many of Joachim friends allegedly believe he has rushed into a new marriage, he should have taken the time. Allegedly Frederik does not want to cut contact with his ex-girlfriend; allegedly there has been tension in the marriage because Mary has been difficult to accept that Frederik still have contact with his former girlfriend. So, yeah, that's it. All alleged claims by a Danish author. |

I can understand why anyone would not want to translate this in full ... I mean, it all sounds too salacious, to me, don't you think? I will tell you what is true, and that is that Danish is a very difficult language to learn. It's very gutteral, spoken at the back of the throat, and has many irregular verbs. I gather that even native speakers find it hard to learn. It is also not at all phonetic, so that words are not written how they sound and are spoken. I will stand corrected here, though, if I am being too harsh. Please call me Abbie. ![]() Thanks! Last edited by HRH Abigail; 06-25-2008 at 04:09 AM.

Honestly, I'm really exhausted this evening and translating two long articles...meh...not right now. Sorry. However, as I said before, it's pretty much the jist of the articles. All of these claims come from that book, 1015 Copenhagen by Trine whatshername.

Ah, the journalists must be getting bored. I also love the photoshopped cover from Her og Nu. They always look so classy.

Is it just me or do Joachim and Frederik not look alike at all?

I think that Frederik looks alot like his grandfarther King Frederik 9. and Joachim looks alot like Queen Margrethe both in the way they act when they are in puplic.

I agree with HM Margrethe. Joachim is the spitting image of his mother. Fred has a lot of his Dad in him as well as King Frederick too. But true they don't look alike at all.
On an off note. One of my childhood friends was adopted. Both she and her older brother were. They looked just like their adoptive mom and Dad. The adoptive parents finally had her little brother who was biological. He looked nothing like the parents or any member of the family! They were all Italian looking brunettes. He was a pale redhead! Genes are funny sometimes! |

Mary with child wins Bald Archy prize
A PAINTING of a breastfeeding Crown Princess Mary with thunder thighs and a near-naked Crown Prince Frederik with his hand on his "wedding tackle" has won the satirical Bald Archy portrait prize. The short odds were on a painting of Kevin Rudd, Julia Gillard or Peter Garrett - there were about half a dozen of each - but James Brennan's The Official Portrait of the Danish Royal Family took out the top honours in the Archibald spoof Mary with child wins Bald Archy prize | NEWS.com.au Check out the painting, it's...different, but nice. |

HAHAHA..FABULOUS!!!..Oh what a laaaugh!!
Mary in Ugg boots, Isabella suckling away, Frederik with a stubby in his hand, "wedding tackle" in the other and socks and thongs and Christian picking his nose. How entirely bogan!! The complete opposite to what the Crown Princely family are. The Tasmanian Devil was a bit much though, I gotta say... ![]() ![]() ![]() I think (hope) Mary and Frederik would find it really quite funny, to be honest. I know I would...I do!!!

Honestly, I don't care for it. I think it's vulgar.
What is a bogan? |

I think that the painting is in very bad taste.

I understand the point that the artist was trying to make, but I still think that this painting is icky.

I think this painting says a lot about the artist. Vulgar is an understatement IMO.

Wow, that's a disgusting painting...I don't think Mary will like it, or perhaps she will see the humor in it, which I don't see myself...
