I think Bella is my favorite Royal child... So expressive! So confident! and already knows how to work a crowd like pro.I get the feeling Christian is the well behaved thoughtful one but she lights up a room. Heck, PH looks actually relaxed and happy around his granddaughter :) two of a kind?
 
Thanks Muhler,

Delightful galleries. It's not without reason Queen Margrethe calls her "et livsstykke".

We won't get new official pictures this time, and while I had hoped, I'm not surprised. If I knows my Danish royal family quite well (and I think I do) the reason why is simply that so much has been going on over the past weeks and we have had lots and many opportunities to see and experience Bella very close in the last two weeks. I would have enjoyed new pictures, however :p

TV2 has collected a number of sweet video clips with Bella through the years:

Lots of congratulations - I noticed many call her "sunshine princess" - it fits quite well, doesn't it.. (doubt she reads them, however :p)

Am so disappointed that we didn't get new pictures for her birthday – this is the second year in a row :ermm: Oh well, at least we've gotten to see a lot of everyone over the course of the last two weeks.

Here are some gifs of Bella being Bella :p on QMII's birthday last week:

Isabella is such an expressive child and she always looks like she is having fun. I love that and I hope it continues into her adult life!

I am always amazed at how much like Frederik she looks.

Those are adorable. :wub: She seems like a very happy little girl. Thanks for posting. :flowers:
 
Summary of article in Billed Bladet #18, 2015.
Written by the exceptional Ulrik Ulriksen.

As you know Bella turned eight last Tuesday and she was no doubt celebrated at home, before going to school, where she was no doubt also celebrated by her class.
After school Isabella went to Tivoli. The article doesn't say with whom.

But Sunday she was celebrated in earnest by friends. They arrived around 15.00.
Among them were Peter and Caroline Heering with their Rosemarie and Emilie.
Peter Bang and Juliane Meulengracht.
And also Johan and Rebecca Wedell-Wedellsborg and their daughter. - But apparently the Wedellsborg are not used to using the official entrance. They went for the back/private/secondary entrance until a sentry on duty directed them to the right gate.

You can see more here: https://app.box.com/s/2p29iugkf21gds8uspotaotegtj0gs8o
 
We've probably covered this one before, but let's have it one more time.

Summary of a Q&A in Billed Bladet #21, 2015.
Where a Benjamin Madsen would like to know what would happen should Christian turn out to be gay. Could he adopt children who could be the next heir?

Jon Bloch Skipper replies:
No. The Law of Succesion §5 states that only children born within a legal marriage can succeed to the throne. So regardless of the sexual orientation of Christian no adopted children can become in line for the throne.
After king Christian XI, Isabella (or her oldest child) will be the next monarch.
 
There is an official duty coming up for Bella.
TV 2 | ØSTJYLLAND | Færge opkaldes efter kongelig | Nyheder | Samsø

A ferry is to be renamed from M/F Samsø to M/F Prinsesse Isabella.
The renaming ceremony will take place on 6th June and it will indeed be Bella herself who will do the honor, with a bit of support from mother, because Mary will present as well.

The ceremony will take place on the island of Samsø in the port of sælvig (= seal-cove).
Here is the almost brand new ferry: http://www.takeoff.dk/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/mf-sams%C3%B8.jpg

This will be great!
 
Bella's first official engagement in her own right – she's getting so big! I can vividly remember back when she attended Find vej dagen alongside Frederik and Christian and exclaimed, "I could do that!" when Christian had some trouble cutting the ribbon :lol: I can imagine she's quite proud right about now :D

First Ingrid Alexandra in Norway, then Élisabeth in Belgium and now little Isabella here in Denmark – I think I see a royal pattern of young European princesses and ship christenings here.

Oh I remember that so clearly as well :lol: Thanks for reminding me about it.
 
:lol: Weeell, she had to eat those words recently. When she was to cut the ribbon when the eco-cows were let out. At that point it was Vincent who believed: "I could do that".:cool:

There are not so many (impressive) ferries as there used to be, instead we have a lot more bridges.
So perhaps we will have a Prins Vincent Bro and a Prinsesse Josephine Bro just waiting to be named in the future?
Not as sexy as a ship, alas, but at least they'll be around longer.

ADDED:
Does anyone happen to know whether a mobile phone can spontaneously catch fire? Surely my wife's phone will soon be too hot for her to hold! Perhaps I should fetch a fire extinguisher...

Wifey is still on the phone... :shock:

So I have found a few ferries named after the DRF
Kronprins Frederik: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...nes_FS_Kronprins_Frederik_Warnemünde_(07).JPG
Prins Joachim: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c1/Scandlines_FS_Prins_Joachim_Warnemünde_(01).JPG

Prinsesse Anne-Marie: http://billeder.dk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/20060523-133310-2.jpg

But nothing named after Christian.

On 8 April 2005, CP Mary named the freight ship Mary Arctica. An Icebreaker which will spend its days travelling from Greenland to Denmark etc.
 
I remember sailing with Pss Anne-Marie, Pss Benedikte and Pss Elisabeth when they were on service between Århus and Kalundborg.

Later they went to sail between Helsingør - Helsingborg.

And then in 1999 I went ot Argentina with ny choir and we took the ferry to Uruguay and guess what: The ferry was "Pss Benedikte" with all intact. From the coloring indoord and outdoors to the "Exit Helsingør" above the door for walking passengers :)
 
Have all members of royal family their names to the ships? Is tradition ?

No, but it's certainly very common. I think you can say that during the lifetime of a member of the DRF at some point a ferry will be named after that person.

But we still lack a M/F Kronprinsesse Mary and M/F Prinsesse Marie.
If I am to make a prediction I don't think we should expect Joachim's children to have ferries named after them, perhaps with the exception of Athena (plus that's a good name for a ferry).

I've sailed with the Aarhus-Samsø-Kalundborg ferries quite a number of times too, when I was a child.
It's funny, FasterB, you should end up on one in Argentina of all places. :)
 
Isabella's event is now on the DRF calendar
"HRH Princess Isabella baptizing Samsoe new ferry in Sælvig Harbour, after TRH The Crown Princess and Princess Isabella will visit the island Berries and Samsoe Nature noon. 13.45."

looking forward to it
 
Thanks Polyesco,

Aww, it's the very first time we see Isabella listed as responsible for her own official event in the official calendar.

Our little Bella isn't so little anymore :wub:

"H.R.H Princess Isabella baptizing Samsø's new ferry at 1:45 pm"
