She is indeed a nun. In Toulouse. Born in 1946, she is 12 years younger than PH.
She lived in London with PH, when he was a diplomat there and as such she was around when PH and QMII met.

Here is a photo of her, she seems to have a keen sense of humor: https://www.bt.dk/danmark/prins-henr...-til-kobenhavn

I read he has eight siblings; are all of them still alive?

According to bt.dk 4 of his siblings are alive. 2 sisters Francoise and Catherine and 2 brothers Etienne and Jean-Baptiste.

They have talked to the son of the 85 year old sister Francoise . He says that his mother is very worried for Henrik and sad that she cannot travel to Denmark as she is herself in bad health.

Yes, I checked now: one of his sibling died aged 3, two - aged 18, and the youngest one - three years ago, aged 67.
How old are sister Catherine, Etienne and Jean-Baptiste?

More quotes from PH's family is coming in:
https://www.bt.dk/royale/prins-henri...meget-bekymret

PH's nephew, Guillaume Bardin, speaks on behalf of his mother, Françoise Bardin, who is PH's older sister.
"My mother has lost her voice, so she can't talk, but she is very worried about Prince Henrik and very sorry that she for health reasons is unable to go to Denmark.
I last saw him back in August at Chateau de Cayx where he was reasonably well. I would very much like to visit him myself, but I don't want to disturb either".

Min mor har mistet sin stemme, så hun kan ikke tale, men hun er meget bekymret for prins Henrik og meget ked af, at hun ikke helbredsmæssigt er i stand til at rejse til Danmark,«
»Jeg så ham sidst tilbage i august på Chateau de Cayx, hvor han havde det rimelig godt. Jeg vil meget gerne selv besøge ham, men jeg vil heller ikke forstyrre.

It must be hard for Henrik jr., Vincent, Josephine and Athena not to be able to see their grandfather.

How he would be disturbing? He is also a member of the family.

That's the word he used. - He might also have meant intrusive.

According to various sources, only J&M's son, Henrik, is not present at Rigshospitalet right now.
Perhaps he has flu? Many are down with flu these days here in DK.

Photographs show all the children but Henrik entering the hospital with their parents.

The entire family ? Including all grandchildren ? I'm afraid that is not a good sign.

Biri · #**274** 02-10-2018, 10:38 AM

It means the twins and Athena are also present?

I think we should be prepared for an announcement within the next hour.

Yes everyone except Henrik jr was seen when they arrived.

As i see it, it could be 2 things.

1. They have all an opportunity to visit together and spend some time there together with PH as a complete family. Hopefully it is "just" that.

2. They have been asked by the doctors to come all together because the end is near. I fear that is exactly what is happening now :(

According to Ekstrabladet they all left the hospital after about 40 minutes.

This is headline news in DK right now.

Oh wow....I knew Prince Henrik was ill but didn't quite think it was this bad. It seems that things have taken a turn for the worse. Prayers go out to the family. I hope for the best, but based on what I've been reading...that doesn't seem to be the case and I think Muhler is correct in saying we should be prepared for an announcement soon.
