I don't know if this is the appropriate place for a news/picture thread of Princess Benedikte and her family. But I figure she is a Danish-born royal even if she is married to other nobility now.
From BT Online, here is a picture of Princess Benedikte's youngest daughter, Nathalie, who is busy trying to get sponsors for her equestrian event for the next Olympics.

The whole family: Princess Benedikte, her husband Prince Richard and their children, Prince Gustav, Princess Alexandra and Princess Nathalie.
I love this picture of Princess Benedikte and her husband Prince Richard. They are not photographed very often, but Princess Benedikte is a great source of support to her sister, Queen Margrethe, and often acts as Regeant when other members of the family are busy or out of the country.

I'm glad you enjoyed them and that someone else likes Princess Benedikte and her family as much as I do.
Here are a few more pictures of Princess Benedikte's eldest daughter, Alexandra, her husband Count Jefferson von Pfeil and their son Richard. The happy family are presently anticipating a new arrival this fall.
Hey Alexandria, I like the family pictures. :flower: Richard is taller now. Can't wait for their new baby to arrive. Princess Alexandra is one of my favourite princesses along with Martha Louise. :)

Originally posted by thissal@Jun 25th, 2003 - 4:09 pm Hi Alexandria. Who is Princess Nathalie?
Sorry, I guess I should've elaborated more :( instead of just copying and pasting IBL's text. I just assumed that everybody knew who she is. (The phrase at work is when you assume you make an ass of you and me! :P )
Princess Nathalie is the youngest daughter of Princess Benedikte, sister of Queen Margrethe, which makes her a niece of the Queen and a cousin to Princes Frederik and Joachim. Nathalie has an older sister Alexandra, married to Count Jefferson von Pfeil, and an older (unmarried) brother Gustav.

www.billedbladet.dk - I can't read Danish but I assume this article is about Prince Richard's cancer and hopefully treatment. Maybe someone else can translate or fill us in on what the update is on Richard's health?
Prins Richard hviler ud hos Margrethe: Jeg har kræft i lysken - 17.07.03
Jeg har haft hudkræft og bagefter kræft i lysken i venstre side. Jeg er blevet opereret to gange og skal nu i gang med kemoterapi.
Det bekræfter prins Richard nu offentligt, efter at Billed-Bladet, i sidste uge omtalte hans sygdom. I begyndelsen prøvede familien i Berleburg at holde enhver snak om kræft inden for hjemmets fire vægge, men efter Billed-Bladets artikel har man indset, at det er bedst at stå frem og bekræfte fakta. Ligesom dronning Margrethe altid har været åben om sine sygdomme, er hendes søster og svoger det nu også.
The article mainly says that he has skin cancer and groin cancer. It says he has been operated on twice and that he is resting. He will be undergoing chemotherapy.
I feel so badly for Prince Richard and his family. Nobody should have to suffer with cancer. It is a terrible disease.
