I see so much of Prince Vincent in that photo of Prince Henrik (with Queen Margrethe)

Which tiara is Queen Margrethe II wearing?

It's the Alexandrine diamond drop tiara that today belongs to Countess Alexandra of Fredriksborg.

^^^^^ And doesn't that just break your heart. Yet another historic treasure gone from the rural family.

Prior to Prince Christian's confirmation tomorrow, the Palace has shared a photo gallery of confirmations of the past:


** kongehuset gallery: Kongelige konfirmationer gennem tiden **

According to the Palace it's 35 years ago today that Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim became students of the Øregård Gymnasium in Hellerup.

"In exactly one week" Prince Felix "can put the student hat on his head when the Prince goes up to the last exam at Gammel Hellerup Gymnasium":

[Muhler]

And this year the newly graduated students are allowed to drive freely around the streets, cheering, shouting and behaving silly while drinking lots of beer. And truly celebrate. There were some restrictions last year.
All while flaunting their caps.

As is evident here:

Tradition dictates that each truck drive to homes of all the students for refreshments... - with say 20 students, that an all day event.

I'm sure the photo with Queen Ingrid in the blue dress is from the event where she unscheduled gave an improvised speech to QMII, saying that: "Now I can safely close my eyes." - The family and reign are in good hands.

Wasn't that at Queen Margrethe's Silver Jubilee Banquet in January 1997 at Christiansborg Palace? I recall Queen Ingrid wearing a red dress with her ruby parure. This seems to be from a state banquet in connection with an Italian state visit, probably the one in 1993.

King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid visiting Tanzania in the 60's, judging from the length of the dress the woman to the left is wearing.
The King is wearing the dress uniform from the airforce back then.

I could not resists posting this photo from 1960 of a very young Princess Anne Marie with her dad: https://kgl-fotosamling.kongernessa.../r/31730/viewmode=previewview/qsr=fredensborg

And this very loving photo from 1903:
https://kgl-fotosamling.kongernessa.../r/42646/viewmode=previewview/qsr=fredensborg
Of Prince Valdemar and Prince Georg of Greece, with Princess Margrethe.

That's what uncles are for: To spoil our nieces and nephews. - Says so in Guidebooks for Uncles, page 4.

Young Princess Margrethe reminds me of Princess Josephine in that photo.

[Frelinghighness]

yes, exactly

 

[Prinsara]

So much so, they apparently called him "Papa Two".

Younger "Big George" always strikes me as resembling Christian a bit. Probably just me.

Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim start school at Krebs Skole on 31 August 1976. The princes were accompanied by Queen Margrethe II and Prince Henrik. The parents chose to have both princes start school at the same time, as Prince Frederik is only a year older than Joachim.

The BB calendar for 2022 has been published.
The layout is pretty confusing this year! Hence the odd order of my scans.

But I see they have updated the titles of Joachim's children.
- As always the birthdays of the DRF members as well as a load of other royals are listed.

Thanks. Are only birthdays included or have they listed any upcoming visits of any type?

No royal events, but flagdays and holydays are mentioned.

Thanks. I was hoping something would be included. All other royal families have been in a state visit and official visit palooza and the DRF are absolute crickets.

BB usually doesn't list royal events, they can be changed or cancelled. Apart from that very few royal events for 2022 have been published, so there would be little to add to the calendar anyway.
