Danish Royal Family Christmas: 2003, 2004, 2006-2014, 2016-2023

So royal, so elegant but fun also with the party hats What is the bright green drink?

[Archduchess Zelia]

At first I thought those were New Years hats as well but come to think of it, I reckon they're more likely to be QMII's homemade Christmas decorations – Christmas angels, perhaps. As for the green, I think it's deep green coloured glasses rather than a drink

It seems that Mary was wearing her purple McQueen gown tonight.

Also, Olympia posted this picture to her Instagram earlier.

Thank you for the photos, it is nice to see how they celebrate, wish we could see the kids in a table! I am sure they are having fun!!!!! Black tie! Really nice, but Olympia has a short dress I guess for the kids it is not so black tie after all! Hope Marie Chantal post more photos in Instegram! Presents time, wish we could see that!

I wish I knew how to post pictures to here from Instagram. Princess Maria Olympia posted a photo of her being silly with two of her brothers and tagged it as Fredensborg Palace.

I wish they'd release a big family photo like they did in 2006!

I like how lavish the room is yet the table setting is kept really simple. It's also nice to see that its a black tie dinner. Christian sitting up head on the side of the table is really nice. I hope we get a lovely group picture in the next few days.

It's not a drink it's a glass.

Picture posted to Marie-Chantal's instagram. I wonder who the two little girls are who's heads we can see.

He is feeling like a real big man right there, I guarantee How cool for him is that?

[Archduchess Zelia]

Here is the picture Olympia posted of her, Constantine-Alexios and Achileas.

Pictures will be coming up soon, so keep a lookout.

Mary og Frederik: På vej til julefrokost i Kancellihuset | Billed Bladet

BB writes that at noon M&F and their children were seen driving from Fredensborg to Kancellihuset, (guess that was faster and easier than dressing the children for the walk. It's been snowing). The family has been posing for a group photo, before going to lunch at Kancellihuset, hosted by M&F.
The Regent Couple attended as well.

QMII and King Constantine drove in a golf cart (so I guess the snow isn't so deep there than over here in Jutland) and PH arrived as the last one, waving and saying hello to the locals who had showed up near Kancellihuset.

That means plenty of pics should be posted by the press agencies and uploaded by private individuals shortly

Just shows the different perspectives on the image I thought it was Prince Henrik Jr or Prince Odysseus Kimon at the top of the table. That certainly appears to be the children's end!

And this from Princess Theodora is just brilliant.

Update on the DRF Christmas: Prinsesse Marie og prins Joachim: Børnene med til julefrokost | Billed Bladet

The family and guests attended service at the palace church today at 10.30, presumably followed by the group photo session.
Then the family gathered at Kancellihuset for the lunch and it appears the whole family was there. The lunch started at 12.30 and lasted some three hours, by then most of the family returned to Fredensborg Palace. (Judging from the photo in the article J&M walked from the palace out past the main guard and past the sentry on front of Kancellihuset.

Nikolai and Felix were seen accompanying Prince Pavlos and his children.

As for Vincent sitting on the lap of Frederik. Yes, it's wrong. However AFAIK Frederik is not breaking any law, as he wasn't driving on a public road or a private road with traffic and I doubt he was going more than 30 km at the very most and the distance is so short the ride would have lasted a minute or so.

[Roskilde]

A woman who lives in Fredensborg writes on Facebook:

"I was up visiting the castle this afternoon and there I saw Frederik and Mary with the twins, Christian and Isabella and Felix, Nikolaj."

Maybe aunt Mary and uncle Frederik took all the children for a stroll in the park. We woke up to snow across the country this morning.

The group photo we will get. Taken today before the lunch today home at Frederik and Mary.

Thanks, Roskilde.

Can't spot Prince Richard though, so either he didn't attend or went home before the photo was taken.

Can't see Prince Gustav or Carina Axelsson either, so presumably they went together?

It seems that also Princess Nathalie, Alexander and Konstantin didn't attend.

It was mentioned previously in the thread that they wouldn't attend as Princess Nathalie is heavily pregnant.

Lovely photo, and the Queen in matching Christmas colours with Henry is cool! but I would have loved to see a family photo from last night all in black tie!!!!!

[polyesco]

Love the family photo and that the three families could get together. Henrik and the queen in matching color clothes. Felix and Vincent in same color pants. Athena sitting in between Josephine and isabella cute

Great that Nikolai and Felix were seen with Frederik and family. They seem to enjoy spending time with their uncle and family
