The Duchess of Cambridge has been named “Hat Person of the Year” by The Headwear Association. That reminded me of an old Crowning Moments I drew. Corny but cute, I say! :)

Countess Alexandra Celebrates With Danish Royals

15/01/12 No comments

Countess Alexandra of Frederiksborg, along with her husband, Martin Jorgensen, joined the Danish Royal Family to celebrate the jubilee of Queen Margrethe II. The Queen has been on the Danish throne for 40 years – a “ruby” jubilee.

Resplendent jewels and gowns glimmered brightly during the gala performance at the Concert Hall in honor of Margrethe last Saturday (1-14) evening. Alexandra arrived in brilliant red, topped off by her Alexandrine Diamond Drop Tiara (Queen Margrethe gave the tiara to her then-daughter-in-law as a wedding present. Alexandra kept the tiara after her divorce from Prince Joachim).

Members of the family in attendance for the concert included:

  • Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary
  • Prince Joachim and his sons Nikolai and Felix (Marie remained at home with little Henrik)
  • The Queen’s sisters, Princess Benedikte (w/ husband Prince Richard of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg) and Queen Anne-Marie (w/ husband the former King Constantine)
  • The Queen’s  nieces and nephews from the Berleberg family and Greek royal family
  • The Rosenborgs, cousins of the Queen

Other dignitaries included Danish government officials and the heads of state for the Scandinavian countries: the President of Finland, King Harald and Queen Sonja of Norway, King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden, and Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway (see the full list).
