I have to report on a serie of attacks by the Danish popular press (Extra Bladet amoung others) on Alexandra.
The link I provide is in Spanish (sorry) but it basically says that the Danish press as been recently selling another version of the Alex-Joachim breackup. Basically, Alex is a nymphomaniac with a taste for young men, her relationship with her new BF is 2 years old and Joachim has been drinking to forget his wife's infedilities!
The article is full of racists cliché ('The Ardent Chinese', 'The oriental with high sexual stamina') and quite disgusting.
I just though it should be reported.
Now that she's no longer a full member of the DRF, I guess Alex will have to cope with more attacks on the kind :( .

Here you have the translation:

Very bad press for Alexandra of Denmark

CARMEN VILLAR MIR
STOCKHOLM.

After average world suffered with the sweet princess Alexandra, whom it had to divorce of prince Joaquin of Denmark, incapable to support to more time its alcoholism, is now that the youngest child of Reina Daisy II —que received the nickname of "Prins Pinsam" (the prince deplorable)— she was in fact the victim.
Before the general stupor, one makes sure now that Joaquin drowned his alcohol pains and that drank to forget the continuous acts of infidelity its "loving wife", the flights of this one, and the total disinterestedness that the hongkongniana by the marital bed felt. The Scandinavian press without exception, that does not save qualifying contemptuous and hirientes on "Alex" ("the ardent Chinese ", "an Eastern one with sex desire"), gave yesterday to details on the adulteries of the princess and their taste by the young boys. Under title "Sandheden skall frem" (something as well as "That prevails the truth"), the newspaper" Ekstra Bladet "explained that its pair, Martin Jorgensen, fifteen years younger than the princess, are not a newness since has been the lover of this one for two years.
The daily mentioned one also emphasized the chivalry of Joaquin when public doing its separation the 16 of September, assuming the paper of the guilty part to safeguard the maternal figure.
Other metropolitan newspapers, like the "Expressen", speak of a desacreditación campaign towards Alexandra, "yesterday santa and today golfa", with object to improve the battered figure of prince Joaquin.

Hmmm. You never saw Sarah Ferguson referred to as an over-sexed white woman.

Larzen · #**146** 08-17-2005, 09:51 AM

The cover says that Martin became a father at 16 and that he has a daughter called Emilie that is 11

Quote:

Alex`s Lovers former girlfriends speak out
Se og hør has spoken to several of Martins ex girlfriends
He is very charming says Sussanne that dated Martin in the first moths of the year. We celebrated new years together, I had invited Martin and a couple of his friends, we were togethere for two months where we went out and had a good time

Another girl, Louise had a fling with Martin some moths ago, at that time he was in love with the Princess but Alex was not ready to commit.(.and some remarks that he was good in bed which I wont translate further...)

Quote:

Alexandra happy in london.
It was a wonderfully beautiful and in love Princess that was in London to hear the Radio choir sing in Royal Albert Hall.

Beautiful as always but she did not say much when she arrived except that she was looking forward to the evening. That you can interpret anyway you want to. Atleast she has a lot to be happy about theese days. According to Se og Hørs sources the Princess was in London the whole of Friday but if she went shopping or walked han in hand with her lover is not known. When Se og Hør asked her if she loves him, she turned her head

The last article from BB is only summary of his CV and his family and the work he and Alexandra has done together.

hi everyone!

i just read an article i wasn't used to reading... for once, it blamed on alexandra the divorce with joachim saying it was her who caused joachim to start drinking and going to discotheques because she starting dating another person. it also said how the danish people called her now not so nice things now. it also mentioned that this maybe just a rumour to improve joachim's popularity after the divorce.

does anyone from denmark know if this is true or just a rumour? i didn't think of alexandra like that...

Princess Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg,as protector, attended the Swedish Villa Fund’s 10th jubilee arrangement in the Bernstoff Park, Bernstoff Castle, in Gentofte. (Translated by GrandDuchess)

She is starting to look very glamorous and wearing cuts that I don't think she would ever worn if she were still married to Joachim.

Lillia · #**149** 08-17-2005, 04:33 PM

for me, the princess has an unusual but certainly refreshing taste in clothes -- but I really like this black & white outfit she's wearing.:)

it looks very nice on her:p

it's nice to see she wears her styles so nicely:)

GOOD POINT!

Princess Alexandra's new villa has enough room for both her parents, so why are they choosing not to live with her and her children? Why are they instead choosing to live with a man who reportedly betrayed her? Maybe, just maybe Princess Alexandra is not so innocent at all. Maybe she did contribute to the breakdown of her marriage.

REMEMBER PRINCE CHARLES & PRINCESS DIANA?

Princes Charles was demonized for having an affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles while at the same time Princess Diana was elevated to sainthood by her adoring subjects. After her tragic death it was revealed that Princess Diana also had her share of lovers, many more than Prince Charles. Could this be the same case for Prince Joachim and Princess Alexandra? Maybe, maybe not. Only time will tell.

Actualy I don't like the way she dresses recently . No offence.

Concerning Alexandra and Joachim....we don't know what happened in this marriage. We cannot say that Alex was unfaithful or that Joachim was unfaithful. The particulars of the separation and divorce were never given to us. All of this print media can only speculate. They have no solid proof of what happened inside of this marriage. Whether they simply grew tired of each other and decided to move on and remain friends and civil for their children is still a puzzle to us. Frankly, I really don't care about what happened at this point. This divorce has been extremely aimacable and respectful so I see no point in thinking the worse of either parties. The media has to do this because they need to sell papers and magazines. I don't.

Of course, the fact that Alex is now dating someone gives them something to talk about. Not only is she dating again, but she is dating a man much younger than she and well we all know the old double standard. A good rag can probably get two weeks worth of rubbish out of this.

I agree that if Joachim was so awful to Alex that there is no way that her parents would remain on the grounds at Shackenborg. So, clearly that most likely was not the case for their divorce. However, that doesn't meant that Alex was unfaithful are caused the break up either. I think that if that were the case, the Manleys would most likely relocate out of embarassment and try to save face with their in-laws. This is most likely not the case either. This is what I would call a Catch 22. If either party had actually behaved badly chances are that the Manleys would have moved in either scenario. Either case would give them more than enough reason to feel uncomfortable.

Let's face the facts. If Alexandra was so horrible, then why would she still be allowed to keep a prefix? Sure she no longer bears an HRH, but an HH for a divorced European Princess is very generous, IMO. If Alex was still so awful and contributed greatly to the downfall of her marriage, then why give her an added titled of Countess in preparation of her some day remarrying and not wanting her to be untitled? Regardless of saving face from the Royal House, this would not be normal behavior towards someone who committed an act of betrayal. I wouldn't expect for her to be denounced, but I wouldn't expect such graciousness and clear respect.

I am not even going to go there with the Prince Charles and Princess Diana comparison. I am so sick of having every royal or royal scenario compared to those two. Diana is no longer living and has been judged as far as I am concerned by her maker. Charles seems to be happy with Camilla, so I think that it is time to let the past be what it is-the past.

A very good fact. As far as royal divorces go, she did pretty well for herself. So I doubt she betrayed Joachim. The royal family, especially the Queen herself, realizes how important Alexandra is to the monarchy in Denmark and provided her with a title. Not bad at all. Clear respect indeed.

I don't like the strapless dress that she wore recently in London. But, I do like this new black and white one. The design is very unusual, but Alex is petite enough to pull it off. I wonder if this is a recent design or something vintage. I agree with someone who mentioned that it had an eighties look to it, even early nineties, IMO.

Reina · #**156** 08-17-2005, 10:54 PM

Well like I've said before, I think both Alexandra and Joachim betrayed each other and contributed to the breakdown of the marriage.

She reminds me of Diana who really bloomed and dressed glamorous post-Charles. It's a nice dress, something I wouldn't have thought she would wear.
