They appear as king and queen for the first time! Queen Margrethe (83) reigned as head of state of Denmark for 52 years – and after the death of Queen Elizabeth II (✝96) was considered the longest-reigning monarch in Europe. At the turn of the year, Margrethe surprisingly announced that she would be resigning from her position. At the weekend, her eldest son Frederik (55) ascended the Danish throne. Now he and his wife Mary (51) made their debut as a royal couple!
Like Hello! According to reports, the 55-year-old and his wife attended a meeting of the Danish Parliament a few hours ago. At her side were Margrethe, her youngest son Joachim (54), and her sister Princess Benedict (79) and her grandson Crown Prince Christian (18). For their first appearance after the coronation, Frederik and Mary also dressed up: the monarch wore a navy blue suit, which he combined with a patterned tie. Mary, on the other hand, shone in a royal blue ensemble, which she paired with a wide-brimmed hat.
Just a few weeks ago, Frederik and Mary made a lot of headlines: the reigning king of Denmark was having an affair with the Mexican socialite Genevieve Casanova (47) – but both at their first appearance and after their accession to the throne, the couple seemed to defy the rumors: there was even a romantic kiss on the balcony of Christiansborg Palace after the coronation.
