I wonder if the baby was named after Natalie's uncle, King Constantine. Is Konstantin with a "K" the Danish or German version of this name?
I know King Constantine gave Natalie her Olympic medal when she won; perhaps they are close because of their shared Olympic experiences.
Prince Constantijn of the Netherlands has King Constantine as one of his godfathers, so he was probably named after the king, too.

Where Princess Benedikte talks about her new grandson.
He was born on Saturday at 18.45 measuring 58 cm and weighing 3.700 grammes.

Benedikte said: "He is a big and lovely boy with blond hair and blue eyes. I'm happy that the birth went well and that Prince Richard and I have had yet another lovely grandchild (barnebarn). I've visited my daughter at the hospital several times and both she and the child are fine.

The wedding between Nathalie and her Alexander took place at Berleburg on the 27. May in what the Germans call a Standesamtliche Trauung, I.e. a civil wedding.

You mean she looked different and not as good as she normally does,
but well, you have to think of the fact that a birth is a very extreme,
painful and debilitating process. You can see it in many women in their
first days and weeks after a birth, besides that it's also not the best
shot from the photographic aspect

[lilibeth77]

I think we have to understand that Nathalie had just delivered a child to the world, she's probably very tired, a birth it's a very painful and strong thing to endure. Let's just give her a break and wish her and her new family the absolute best.

That's a very German/Danish name I like that they have kept with tradition.

Nathalie does look different after having the baby, but she has just had a baby so a little weight is expected. Shame she wasn't at Gratsen.

I'm 29 years old.I have two children. three years and three months...
I had my children by caesarean...
I know what it this...

[Dierna23]

I think Nathalie looked absolutely okay. She doesn't seem to wear make up and the quality of the picture is a bit odd.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

[antonieta]

K'mon, she just had a baby.
Wasn't doing a beaty treatment.
Congratulations once again.

[dazzling]

The picture actually looks like its a mobile camera or some low mega pixel camera IMO.
Glad there was a picture of the couple with the baby. Cant wait to see official pictures of there will be any.

[lilibeth77]

So the baby was born via caesarean or was it natural?

[iceflower]

Lilibeth77, I think it's been a natural birth.

Billed-Bladet has the first official pics and an interview with the new
parents. A very tiny pic can be seen on the cover of this week's
issue.

The picture on the front cover, any chance we could see a bigger version?
