Summary of article in Billed Bladet #37, 2013.
Mary til Gatsby-party i London - Mary to Gatsby-party in London.
Written by our man in town Ulrik Ulriksen.

Restaurant owner, Søren Jessen, turned 50 the other day and on that occasion he had invited a handful of guests - quite a few actually...
The theme of the party was The Roaring 20's and everybody had suited up accordingly. One of them being Mary who arrived accompanied by a manager from Georg Jensen, Ulrik Garde Due.
The guests had been asked to arrived at the posh restaurant, Lombarde Street 1, between 13-15 and Mary arrived at 14.30. - You'll win no prize for guessing who owns the restaurant, located in Londons financial district.
Here the guests enjoyed a late lunch ending a little past 17.00 when there was made room for a live band. The band mainly played dance hits and the music wasn't from the 20's but rather the 80's, but the dancefloor was crowded.
The music later changed to sould and blues and climaxed in salsa.

An English guest who was out for a breath of fresh air confided to our reporter that the party was great, everybody was dancing.
Around 22.00 people locked outside to watch a spectacular fireworks display. - Not because of this birthday however but from another party nearby.
Mary left the party at 23.30.

Mary was far from the only one who came to the party without a spouse.
Among the guests were:

Christian and Elisabeth Buchwald.
Princes Pavlos and Nikolaos - no wives.
Rebecca and Johan Wedell-Wedellsborg.
Peter Heering.
Rory Fleming.
Malou and Søren Skeel.
Christoffer Carstenskiold - husband to Ellen Hillingsøe.
Ditlev Ahlefeldt-Lauvig.
Dorthe Wedell-Wedellsborg. - Half the Wedell-clan seems to have been there!
Martin Jørgensen - without his Alexandra.

- So Mary was surrounded by friends and familiar faces.

There was however some drama.
Two intoxicated persons committed some vandalism in the underground before deciding that they wanted to join the party. That led to a discussion at the rear entrance of the restaurant and here one of them hit out at one of the British protection officers allocated to Mary. They were quickly neutralised and taken away by the police.

Frederik as you know was in Argentina. And here he and other members of the IOC posed with some tango dancers. Frederik posed for a while and then cracked up - presumably he couldn't see himself as a convincing tango-dancer...

:previous:thank you Muhler. :flowers:

now Im curious to see princes Pavlos and Nikolaos, and Martin too, in 20s costume.

And I loved the picture of Frederik as a Tango dancer (well in his case more poser) :D

You are welcome. :)

Well, for those who won't have access to the pictures in the article I can attempt to describe the two gentlemen.
They looked almost like twins and wearing white suits, with a dark west you would be forgiven for not telling them apart, except that one wore brown shoes and a pale dotted tie, while the other wore black shoes and a lilac dotted tie. - Oh yeah, one also had a beard.

Martin Jørgensen loked almost contemporary in a bluish, slightly too tight suit, with a kind of professor Calculus (Tournesol) collar and a lilac tie. - And in line with the fashion of the 20's he was unshaved...

Peter Heering was a real dandy, wearing a sixpence and a beige (I think) suit, with a flower west, pinkish tie and a narrow (and I think painted) moustache.

Christoffer Carstenskiold was most elaborate, wearing an officers mess uniform, complete with combed back Preussian hair, boots and frog-thighs in his pants, not to mention a narrow moustace and a monocle? (Not sure).

There are some glorious pictures in BB. Frederik looks great trying to keep a straight tango-face, but it is more than clear to see that he finds the situation a bit awkward :lol:
 
Here is a pic of Princes Nikolaos and Pavlos. https://app.box.com/s/yklo8517496sxpii5wfm
As you can see they are almost impossible to tell apart. Like Thompson & Thompson (Dupont & Dupond).

Here are Peter Heering and Christoffer Carstenskiold, who really embraced the theme: https://app.box.com/s/u5837kv2i3b7927mzfyk
I notice when looking at the picture of Ditlev Ahlefeldt (bottom) that there must be "water in the basement" at home, judging from the length of his trousers.

CP Mary has been immortalised in a limited-edition Royal Doulton figurine in Australia to celebrate the approaching 10th anniversary of Mary and Frederik's marriage.

The 22cm-tall statue of the Tasmanian-born princess is believed to be the first Australian honoured with a Royal Doulton statue.

The release of the Mary-figurine coincides with the Danish royals' planned visit to Australia this year.

How nice. Hopefully you get to see her:flowers:
 
yes it could be fun to see her in real life again. i will cycle as fast as i can from work haha :)

Lucky you! :)

Don't know where to post this, so apologies up front if not the place. Just wondering why we don't see any new portraits of M&F these days? How often do they release these?

Hi Eden :flowers:

If I know the DRF well enough, I think there have to be a reason to publish new official pictures. I' pretty sure we will have new pictures of M+F (and children as well) to their 10 year wedding anniversary in the beginning of next year (or perhaps already to their engagement day next month.) The last time they officially traveled to Australia (November 2011) we got a new official family picture before they traveled from Denmark, so who knows, maybe we'll get a new one for their upcoming trip to Australia next month.

Some little cozy "news" from Facebook...

A Danish woman writes today on her Facebook that she yesterday was in Copenhagen where she passed by CP Frederik who was out walking with Ziggy and the twins in a stroller.
https://scontent-a-ams.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc3/1383941_547230878682014_194565759_n.jpg


And Thursday around noon, M+F were spotted arrive to Amaliehaven with the boat, which sails out to Dannebrog (I think). But those people they sail with looks very casually dressed, so I guess they just were out having a lunch in the great weather perhaps?

You're welcome, Hannelore :flowers:

I think it's quite nice we Danes can run into our future King and Queen in the streets out walking with their dog and their children in a stroller.

Hello everyone,

Isn't that Julie Molsgaard with them? A little side question, I often see her with Mary & Fred but always on her own. I assume she has no partner? Does somebody know more about her private life? Was she married before, or did she have a serious relationship in the past that you guys know of?

nice photo, it must been from a month or two ago according to their summer clothes i think? :)
 
That is Christian, not Isabella.

Yeah, I know, it's only because I couldn't find the picture where you also can see Bella, but I remember her on a bigger bike on that outing with mom and siblings.

Billed Bladet this week has a heartwarming story about a fifteen year old girl, Tiffanie, who suffer from severe problems with her intestines, causing her to have been commtitted to hospital 125 times and counting.

She recently had a big wish fulfilled ad the Make-A-Wish Foundation presented her with a trip to Hollywood.

However, each year Tiffanie walk the catwalk at the fashionshow at the Bella Centre and in that capcity she has met Mary several times. In fact she and Mary met for the first time when Tiffanie was six years old, she was wearing full princess clothes as so many girls do at that age, complete with a crown and that made Mary walk up to her and say hi.
Tiffanie's mother, Helle Barslev, continues: "Since then she has recogniced Tiffanie and if she isn't able to come over to say hi, she winks (not wave, wink) to her".
 
Mary, Christian and Bella arrived a few hours ago to Tivoli where they attend the premiere of the new family musical 'El Dorado - The search for the golden city'. :)

Mary, Christian and Bella came along with two girls at Isabella's age - and TV2's reporter noted that the charmer Bella once again managed to entertain before start - along with her two ​​friends she used the waiting time to hugging and fool around before they all went in together to watch the musical.

Lovely pictures, thanks for posting! Both kids are really cute and behave completely normal with the press out there. Its great to see that there is no need to hide royal kids away but to include them in everyday life, the combination of both worlds has become normality for them.

I have to say that Christian looks more and more like his male cousins. Isabella is Fred all over.

Thanks, Roskilde :flowers:

I noticed the eyes of the "Inca-girls", it was Mary they were looking at, not Bella and Christian.
