BT has finally worked out that it's Henrik's B-day today and they have posted the two official shots. In HQ at least:

Mademoiselle Athena can't talk her way out of the Grassiot genes!

And Henrik seems to have inherited his mother's smile and that is no bad thing!

And the third photo of the family next to Pjerrot and a mini-Pjerrot.
Pjerrot is derived from Pierre, hence the DK expression of "acting like a French clown." - As I understand it Pjerrot originates in Italy though.

And BB has compiled this 23 pic gallery of Henrik:

Lovely photos of Henrik and his sister - he looks so grown up! He's going to break hearts when he's older, that's for sure.
Nice to see Athena included in one of the photos too despite the fact it's not her birthday.

I assume you meant to talk about birthday boy Henrik and not his adult brother

[HereditaryPrincess]

All of Joachim's boys will, to be honest! They share some good genes. But yes, I was referring in the to little Henrik - thank you for pointing that out though, I didn't notice that.

Just two words: Poodle = haircut!

Luckily not at 18 - and 50 % of the men are lucky enough not to lose it "by nature" at all!

He actually has the same haircut he had for Pr. Henrik´s funeral. It is just differently groomed and combed for this photoshoot.

Yes, poodled up.

But soon it will be: You're in the army now - Get a haircut!

Nikolai (and, that's the right prince this time ) looks incredibly handsome in the new magazine cover! I have mixed feelings on his hair - I think if it was styled a bit neater I'd be sold

The hair itself is OK, but the hairstyle is rather old-fashioned in my opinion. He should have gone for something more modern.

[Muhler]

Felix has told the press that he'd like to follow in the footsteps of his brother.
First high-school, then the military.
It is also something he has discussed with his father.

As you can tell Felix has become a real teenager - with all the skin problems that entails...
So far he does not seem to be inspired by his brother's hairstyle at least...

Yes, F´s hairstyle looks stuffy and boring (could be 1932, 1985 or 1996 as well). But I think he inherited the pimples from father and pat. grandmother. If one takes a closer look you can still spot the scars.

A very good reason not to join the army...

[Muhler]

On the contrary. I think Felix will enjoy the army. He's an active young lad and fond of boxing and he gets to keep his neat hairstyle.

But Nikolai... A few times crawling through mud a cool, rainy morning and he'll happily part with his curls.
NCO's, especially army NCO's, are very particular about not wearing out the soles of the recruits boots. And the best way to avoid that is to make the recruits crawl as much as possible... ...
Preferably through mud, that's good for the skin.
And after a few weeks they'll quite enjoy digging out earth and mud from their nostrils in the evening.

[Muhler]

Felix is to start in high school after the summer holidays: https://www.bt.dk/danmark/prins-feli...ller-storebror

He will not attend a boarding school, instead he will attend the pretty posh Gammel Hellerup Gymnasium.

Later on he considers following in the footsteps of his brother. i.e. join the military.
