I was wondering if anyone has a clip of her speaking any of her languages (Danish, English, Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese?), etc...), or where I might be able to find them. Ideas? Thanks!

Is it just me or does her suit look very warm for this time of year? The color is stunning on her though. :)

She never fails to amaze a crowd either with what she does or what she wears, And I must say that latest event she attended was spectacular.

But - according to BT - she loves expensive clothes, travels to exotic destinations - also with her 27 year old* boyfriend Martin Jørgensen - and that she has spent a lot of money on purchases of designer furniture and other luxury items for her new palatial villa just north of Copenhagen.
(* I just love the way the age difference has to be mentioned each and every time! Had it been the other way around, it would of course just be romantic - perhaps even natural??  - such hypocrisy)

Thank you very much UserDane for this info!
I really admire Princess Alexandra, she's my favorite royal and that's why I wanted to understand what the article was talking about.
Hm, even if she is a bit wasteful I will be still marvelled at her feeling for fashion. The royals are people who should be a bit beyond us (but it does mean that they are better) and make us dream -thats' my opinion.

UserDane, I love the way you pointed out BT's emphasis on their ages! It's true, every article makes a point of saying their ages. And in case the reader hasn't gotten the point, they sometimes make the calculation for the reader, along the lines of "Alexandra and her 14-years- younger boyfriend..."
