This title will give her an identity as she is the mother of two princes who are in line to the throne. I also think that QMII is smart to maintain a good working relationship with Alexandra because she is the mother of the Queen's 2 grandchildren. I admire the way the Danish Royal family has handles this particular situation. I think that QMII learned a big lesson from her British cousins in how to handle divorce. I also further maintain that the Danish press is deplorable in how they are digging up "dirt" on Alexandra and Joachim now. I do understand that it is the same as the gutter press here in the U.S. but I think that the Danish press should take heed and not repeat the same thing that happened to Diana. It would be a shame to have Princess ALexandra and Prince Joachim learn to live in fear of the press. I have heard that the monarchy in Denmark is very close to the people. It would be a shame to comprimise this wonderful institution by making it retreat behind the walls of the castles as the British Royal family has done so well these last many years.

Just my opinions. Have a great rest of the day/night

Princess Alexandra's new title is Countess of Frederiksborg.
