Here's a video of HRH Crown Princess Mary speech at Global Goals Awards 2017 (I keep forgetting HRH is Australian).
But with 100% Scottish genes...?

Your remark about her "teaching days" (I do wonder how much hours she worked at that private business school) reminded me of Mary saying Paris was not a place for her. That the crowded city where she knew nobody - and didn't understand the language - made her feel unhappy.
you can read it on Mary's page in wikipediaI've got a bit of a technical question...
This is Mary's personal coat of arms that she received the day she married the crown prince of Denmark: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary,...of_arms_of_Crown_Princess_Mary_of_Denmark.svg
Could someone tell me who designed it, how much Mary was implicated in its substance, and mostly: what's the meaning of the symbols/colours depicted?
To the right Mary and her family is represented.
The double-headed eagle with the Karac (ship) represents the Donaldson clan.
The two stars represents Australia. (I don't know why) And the rose between the stars may represent Tasmania? [FONT="]

Thanks you very much, one again, Muhler for your thorough explanation! I had no idea the bear and ram stood for Greenland and the Faroe Isles... Wonderful. It really is a fascinating subject (for history bufs like me anyways) once you start digging deeper.
So am I correct in assuming that Frederik & Mary's 4 children will each get their own coat of arms once their father becomes king?
Yes, M&F's children will each have their own coat of arms. But whether their spouses, apart from Christian's will have their own coat of arms is a much more interesting question.
And now for something more serious: Udviklingsministeren og HKH Kronprinsessen må aflyse rejse til Senegal, men fortsætter i samarbejde med Red Barnet kampen mod børneægteskaber
The Foreign Ministry has today announced that a visit to the African country of Senegal next week, where Mary and the Minister for Development should have taken part in a meeting about child-marriages (i.e. early teens being married) has been cancelled for security reasons.
There is no elaboration as to the nature of the security reasons, but this comes days after a US warning about the security situation in the country. The warning was about an impending terror attack.
- So it seems like the local authorities haven't been able to fully neutralize that threat, hence the warning.
Agreed. CP Mary's work in this area is so important. I hope they can neutralise the situation and she can go to Senegal. Child marriages absolutely mortify me - and it needs people like CP Mary to help campaign against itThat's unfortunate and I'm sure Mary is disappointed along with everyone else who no doubt put in a lot of time and effort in advance of the planned visit. Hopefully it can be rescheduled in the future and, obviously much more importantly, I hope the situation in Senegal is managed effectively without anyone getting hurt.

Was the Minister of Development Cooperation also scheduled to go to Senegal?
