Congratulations to TRH Prince Joachim and Princess Marie of Denmark. The princess gave birth to a girl, the first for the couple.
Edited to add: The baby girl is 6.4 pounds and 19 inches long. From the official DRF website.
Prince Joachim of Denmark and his wife, Princess Marie, have christened their new son Henrik.
Joachim’s father is also named Prince Henrik. The former Henri de Laborde de Monpezat, a French-born count, married Queen Margrethe II of Denmark in 1967. Princess Marie also hails from France.
The baby’s full name, Henrik Carl Joachim Alain, is in honor of the men of his family: Prince Henrik; Carl (Marie’s brother Charles); Prince Joachim; and Alain, Marie’s father.
Many congratulations to the Danish royals and many best wishes for one of the cutest royal babies in Europe!

Congratulations to Prince Joachim and Princess Marie of Denmark. The Princess gave birth earlier today to a six pound, 11 ounce boy.
The royal grandparents, Queen Margrethe and Prince Henrik, visited Marie in the hospital and both mother and son are said to be well.
This child is the third son for Joachim. His previous marriage to the former Princess Alexandra of Denmark produced sons Prince Nikolai, 9, and Prince Felix, 7.
