No, the title of Countess was personal, not hereditry.

Nikolai and Felix already have the titles of Princes to Denmark and Counts of Montpezat, so they will not be in want of titles.

I doubt Aexandra and Martin Jørgensen are going to have children, so the titles of any future children will not become an issue. - If it were, it would be entirely up to the Monarch.

Summary of article in Billed Bladet #49, 2010.
Det har været svært - It's been difficult.
Written by Trine Larsen.

Christmas is getting closer and as Nikolai and Felix are going to spend Christmas with their father, our reportr has asked Countess Alexandra about her feelings in that respect.
Who said about not celebrating Christmas without her sons:
- "It's been difficult, I'll not hide that fact. But the first time was the most difficult. Of course it was hard and I missed them. Back then the children were younger but now I think we have developed a good routine and I just know that their father will give them the best Christmas he can. I'm confident they'll have fun and be well.
If the children are not with us, then they are in the very best hands with their father. And we have also talked about that they in this way will celebrate Christmas twice. They think that's great. It certainly made their faces light. That was something they understood.
So us not being together on Christmas Eve is no longer a problem and I no longer think it's s hard.
But when Martin and I have them back after the Christmas days, (*) we will celebrate Christmas with them and have a cosy time. It's not possible before because there are too many preparations (**) and we all know how much of a rush it is up to Christmas. We do it in the days after Christmas and that'll be lovely too".

Their own plans for Christmas haven't been determined yet. Her mother will celebrate Christmas in England with her sister.

She adds about her mother that she is well.
- "Yes, it was hard for us all (the death of her father). But fortunately my mother has blossomed (***) and is really well".

(*) 24-26. December = Christmas Eve, The First day of Christmas, The Second day of Christmas. All three are now holy days.

(**) You bet! I haven't seen Mrs. Muhler for some time now. I guess she is lost somewhere in the Christmas decorations! I'm seriously considering putting a GPS tag on our children and the dog, lest the same fate await them as well.

(***) Not the same meaning as in English. Here meaning that her state of mind and/or health has really improved.

Actually the 24th is not a whole holy day, it´s only a half holy day

[Jacknch]

So Nikolai and Felix never see their mother on Christmas day? If so, why can they not see her alternate years?

I stand corrected, FasterB, your knowledge in that area is infinetely greater than mine.

Alexandra and Joachim do take turns having the children. She was merely talking about the years where Joachim have Nikolai and Felix over for Christmas.

[Sternchen]

They have christmas with their Alexandra and Martin one year, and the next with Joachim and Marie. I think the do that with summer holidays, too

[Jacknch]

Thanks Muhler and Sternchen for clarifying the situation - I'm glad the boys see their parents on alternate years.

Well, I'm not sure if this is the place this should go since it's not really a 'current event', but dr.dk have put two whole programmes online about Alexandra:

http://www.dr.dk/bonanza/serie/Tema_...?AssetId=55313 "Denmark's New Princess" - an interview done on 1/11 (or 11/01..not sure which way round Danish dates go!) before she got married, both with the then Miss Manley and some of her friends/teachers etc back in HK. She talks about the differences between her life in Hong Kong and Denmark, which parts of her personality are 'European' and which parts 'Asian', how people have been treating her in Denmark, racism, growing up in HK, her job, the switch from being a businesswoman to a Princess in a 'family firm' and some more stuff!

Grevinde Alexandra - dr.dk/Bonanza An interview programme with Alexandra on her 40th birthday (haven't actually seen this yet so I can't really comment on the details).

[Sternchen]

It is from November 1st 1995

According to the following gallery (that includes some more nice additional pics)
the puppy is called Lily and is 12 weeks old - a she-dog I would say as to the name.

[Sternchen]

Lily is a cute name

[Biri]

Lily is the swetest of all of them!
