I have heard rumors from my Danish friend who lives in Copenhagen that it would be celebrated nationwide but not yet sure if is it going to be a big celebration.

Probably not that big a celebration, and definetly not a nationwide thing. All government buildings will hoist the flag etc. But that's more or less it.

I believe she's about 4 or 5 years older than Joachim.

Yes, she's five years older than her husband.

It won't be a big celebration, as HM the Queen, HRH the Prince Consort and the newlyweds will be visiting Greenland at that time.

I watched the programme yesterday... I liked it alot!
I´ve never heard a long interview with Alexandra before and it was the first time I heard Nikolaj speak aswell... what a cutie :flower:

[Jasl]

Did Felix speak as well?? I'm a bit partial to Felix

Yennie can you give us a report? I don't speak Danish so I wouldn't know what she said even if I could access the online clip of the interview. Was it long? What did she say? What did Nikolai say? Did Alex say anything about the recent Danish wedding? Was the interview done before or after the wedding?

So many questions! Hope you have some time to give us a report on the interview! :flower:

[Yennie]

No Felix didn´t speak. It was just Nikolaj. He has a really high voice..very childish and almost wining (haha is it called that?! gnällig på svenska)

It was an hour long...
and she spoke about her life in general. nothing sensational but interesting. Nikolaj was with her in Hong kong and there was a clip from his birthday party at Schakenborg to. There were also a clip from last summer when they were on holiday in Cahors. The whole family was there and they went boating and swimming togehter.
I dont know exactly when all these events took place, but I dont think it was that recent. I dont think she said anything about Mary...

Yes, whiney or wimpering or creaky or even squeaky.

This topic is called HRH Princess Alexandra's Birthday, The next celebration in the Royal Family ---- but that is not correct !

Prince Henrik's 70.birthday will be celebrated before Princess Alexandra's 40. birthday on 30.june and she will only have this as a private affair according to herself - you know Queen Margrethe, Prince Henrik, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary will not return from their tour on Greenland until monday 5. july :)

Prince Henrik will be celebrated by a public concert at Tivoli thursday 10.june and a "private" dinner at Fredensborg palace friday 11.june - all members of the danish royal family will of course attend these celebration events.

[Jasl]

Ok now I DO want to see the clip! (even if I can't understand it).

Is there a link to it???

No, as Alexandra doesn't speak Chinese. Unless her father is teaching it to them.

I didn't know that Alexandra spoke only English growing up...but even if she hadn't, as she's from Hong Kong, she would speak Cantonese, not Chinese! [/b][/quote]
last sunday there was a TV show on danish DR 1 about princes Alexandre, due to her upcoming birthday. She only spoke danish to Nikolai and you actually heard her trying to learn a speach in mandarin (chinese) which she doesn't speak. She does speak cantonese however.
