As an Australian it was lovely to see that Mary had some of her family included . I would have loved to hear all of Prince Christians speech. Proud parents and Grandmother & Queen. Happy 18th Birthday Prince Christian .

Thanks Alexandra for the Royal News.....it's really refreshing to have positive news for the rest of the European Royals.... Happy Birthday 🎉to Prince Christian 😊

My pleasure! 🙂

I really like what Frederik had to say to his elder son. Good advice. Honest counsel. It actually looked like a rather nice celebration.

All the speechs are crafted for them by professional writers.

What a lovely recap! Loved Crown Prince Frederick’s speech! Thank you!

[@shilohwoods4516]

There are so many positives about this event. It was so nice to see young people all cleaned up and looking nice. (Usually, these events have people two steps away from the grave 😅) The choirs sounded beautiful. All his cousins, aunts, uncles (aka all of the Scandanvian royalty...) showed up as well. But I must say HRH Princess Estelle (I think I have her title correct...if not-oh well) was so pretty in her pink dress. You can tell this was her first "grown-up" party, and she looked so wonderful. All of the young royals looked fabulous. I dont care what everyone else has to say, I think this was a great event for all of us to watch and enjoy a special day for Prince Christian, his family, and the country of Denmark. Thanks, Alexandra, for keeping us informed on this fun and exciting royal event.

[@gerlishersw-elsifg]

Dear @shilohwoods4516, I'm afraid this is actually HRH Princess Estelle's second "grown-up" party, as the first one was HRH Princess Ingrid Alexandra's official eighteenth birthday gala in Oslo last June 2022. I do agree with you concerning everything else. Tons of blessings and warmest greetings!

[@LouiseAndersen1991]

Actually, Estelle was invited to Ingrid Alexandras 18th birhtday last year :) And she also attended her grandfathers jubilee concert not to long ago. But she looked so sweet. I think she enjoyed herself more than most

[@Jossianne19130]

Sadly princess Leonor of Spain as always was missing...Seems never the royals from Spain are invited!!!😒😔

[@jamesoconnor7143]

Comment by Car. Princess Estelle has turned into a lovely young girl, the pride of ther parents.

[@bogsluger]

@@Jossianne19130What a peculiar remark. Queen Margrethe was the host and I can’t imagene her snubbing Leonors. To me it seems plausible that she had to decline because of her military training or other educational reasons

All of the ladies looked lovely. You could see how tall Amalia is and she looked very elegant she is going to be a credit to her parents as will Christian and the other heirs to the thrones.

[@gidzmobug2323]

Speaking of ladies, now the media will start speculating on who will Christian will marry every time he's seen with a young lady.

[@karenkratzer7036]

In seeing Prince Christian walking out on the balcony at first it looked like he was hesitant and I loved that he really didn't want to make it about him.

[@Adri-oj3yt]

This is one beautiful royal family. ❤

[@kokonana4086]

[@johnsonrhythm3166]

Thank you so much for this special coverage Alexandra, it was truly beautiful and special, just as the extravaganza; obviously Prince Christian had a remarkable celebration. Also, thank you for putting up his entire speech in English, I watched it earlier in Danish and could only make out just a few words. Felt good to read the full draft here, it was a truly great speech. Wishing you a wonderful day ahead. 😊

[@fatimabeirao4714]

What a wonderful ceremony, where there seemed to be an elegant atmosphere, full of youth, good family understanding, joy and a feeling of support and encouragement for the destiny that Prince Christian will have as the future heir to the Danish Crown. It was also very beautiful to see future heirs to the throne of 5 more European Monarchies, and it should be noted that Prince Christian is the only man among the 4 other Monarchies present. Queen Margaret II of Denmark seemed to be very happy to see the future of her Kingdom assured by a promising heir. Crown Princess Mary was clearly moved to see her son starting a more formal life in terms of social participation. And what brought tears to my eyes were the wise and appropriate words addressed to his son, as the future heir, namely, and I quote, "To fail is to learn". I also enjoyed hearing Prince Christian hear that he loves to travel but that his place will always be in his country, which predicts the beginning of the long journey that Prince Christian will begin in his process of living life, but also of training and maturing in preparing the future that is destined for his life. Congratulations to Prince Christian for his 18 Anniversary, and sincere wishes for a long, healthy and happy life. And , thanks to this channel , and to Alexandra , for this special Royal Reports.

The most important Crown Princess of all I believe, is Leonor of Spain. Spain is in turbulent times politically and economically, her popularity might help boost the country. She’s currently in military school though, but it would’ve been nice to see Leonor in that frame. I think in the future when Leonor becomes Queen, she’ll will just as popular as queen elizabeth, maybe.

The queen looked dashing in her red ball gown. Very elegant 👌

[@mariedraghi9394]

How is it that so many European Royal Houses have escaped the drama that has plagued the British royal family for decades?

[@bobbiejay2085]

The tabloids for one. The British royal arm is huge by comparison too. It's worth following other royal families for perspective.

[@nafeesaebrahim1936]

I have been wondering this myself.

[@biduca100]

There is plenty of documented drama with the Danish, Monegasque, Thai, Luxembourg, Spanish, and Dutch RF out there.

[@kismit100]

It’s the British media. But then again, the British monarchy is the finest of them all. Greetings from America 🇺🇸 ❤

[@barbarabaker3056]

Actually they have. Just think of the scandals of Juan Carlos of Spain. The former king and queen of Belgium were also considered somewhat scandalous. Then there were the escapades of King Carl Gustav of Sweden. It's just the British royals get more publicity.

[@nikos4456]

@@TheRoyalCorrespondent thank you for your response! I know Mary's dad lived in Denmark at one time and I think he was a professor at the University of Copenhagen. Did he leave Denmark a long time ago? I also know that there was a lot of tension between Mary and her family, especially between her brother, two sisters and her. Do you know what all that was about?

He sadly could not make the travel because of health issues. Crown Princess Mary’s nieces from Australia were there, though.

@@nikos4456 I really don't think it is true, that there was any tensions between Mary and her family. I think it is a made up story

[@karenelliott4815]

Commendations to you for speaking out about the way the Danes pass the monarchy to a new generation. The decorum of the Royal Family in contrast to that of the British is to be admired and should serve as role models. The British Coronation of the new King Charles lll does little to erase the public’s memory of his wish to be a tampon. This family ‘s reports of bulimia, toe sucking, pedophelia, and racism are never far from public memory. They can wrap themselves in ermine but the underneath their moral integrity is sorely not on display. Frederick, Mary and family are so admirable!

[@barbraluce5706]

In my opinion, Prince Christian looks more like Crown Princess Mary. He's also incredibly tall like his Aunt Jane. However, I do notice that his mannerisms are very much like Crown Prince Frederik's. The Crown Prince couple raised him well. He seems like a nice, polite, kind, active and fun young man. I do believe he will make a great King one day.🙂🙂

It does! Elephants do have a certain reverence here. People who initially received The Order of the Elephant back when it was created were deemed the Elephant Knights. The elephant was an old symbol of piety and god-fearing here, so the order does have its religious roots in Christianity, and it said to have been created sometimes in the 1400's.
