On the occasion of Danish Crown Princess Mary's 50th birthday on 5 February 2022, new official gala portraits of Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary are published. The portraits were taken by photographer Hasse Nielsen in The Crown Prince Couple's home Frederik VIII's Palace at Amalienborg.
They make a lovely couple anyway but look so regal here. Just love this beautiful dress. I wonder if CP Frederik will make an emotional speech on the birthday as CP Mary did on his. Hope we are going to keep on getting photos all through the week!
ReplyDeleteYes, I was just thinking about the speech too!
DeleteI remember when Mary teased Frederik in the speech and that he was middle aged, 50+ etc. - I don't think that sort of teasing is allowed in his speech to her.
DeleteWhat a beautiful couple! To me Crown Princess Mary is even more beautiful with time and her Dashing husband isn't bad on the eyes either. Her Ruby and Diamond Parure does not get lost on her sequin gown as sometimes jewelry does.....Keep bringing us more and more on Mary and Frederick. Frederick has chosen the perfect Crown Princess to be his Queen one day!
ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh, wordless...
ReplyDeleteLadied and gentlemen, here comes... a marvellous Queen to be!!
What a gorgeous couple👏👏👏👏
Happy Birthday, Mary!!!
These are gorgeous & Mary carries her outfit well. So elegant & delightful, these photos capture a loving couple. These photos take my breath away. Mary
ReplyDelete@Mary I have noticed how much you admire Crown Princess Mary as much as I do!
DeleteFrederick has fought in a lot of wars:))
ReplyDeleteMary gives Frederick the - you belong to me gesture-:)), very loving and giving.
I like the dress a lot, magnificent coloring and suits very good with the brown hair, jewelry. My only thought will be don't drop if you take a step... -A-
Stunning!!! The CP couple look fabulous here--so regal. Mary looks beautiful--her gown is gorgeous. Frederik is so handsome. Can't wait for more everything celebrating Mary's birthday this week.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning photos! Love CP Mary’s dress - color, fabric and style!
ReplyDeleteWow Mary's dress is stunning ;so beautiful and sparkly, such a lovely colour, it matches Fredericks sash beautifully. I don't particularly like the head band tiara ,I do like the earrings .Well Frederick has an array of medals; his uniform is striking. Frederick is such a lovely person ;I don't think his role comes easily to him, I wish him strength and contentment for the years ahead. We all think; wouldn't it be great to live in a drafty old castle, with the eyes of the world watching every thing you do and say and quick to comment, I don't think so; Princess Mary is the stabilising influence in the marriage. I wish them well.
ReplyDeleteI find the gown excellent, and the colours icy blue, sparkly crystals and mauve beads a fabulous combination with the sash and the ruby-diamond jewellery. Absolutely fabulous combination with gown of a simple style to give full credit to the colours and accessories. - Ellie
ReplyDeleteSimply stunning - both of them.
ReplyDeleteMary's gown is beautiful and she looks fab.

The Crown Princess looks very regal and majestic. Beautiful photos, I particularly love the side profile photo of her, she has wonderful, classic features, never takes a bad photo. Her gown is feminine, and rich in eye-catching sparkles, stunning shade of blue. I do love her hair styled in this way to accommodate her tiara, well coiffured. The tiny red rubies within the tiara are offset well by the blue of the gown. The diamond and ruby drop earrings are splendid, the design is subtle and shaped well, but the diamond and ruby brooch is sensational, I love this. The Crown Prince looks fabulous with a very commanding aura. He looks handsome in uniform. They are a wonderful couple.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great surprise to see these new official photos and wonderful to see that they dressed up in their finest gear for these photos.
ReplyDeleteI adore this gown on Mary.
It fits her perfectly. The material looks interesting and this style looks fantastic with her still very good figure. Her hairstyle, makeup and jewellery...all add to this very regal look.
In the last picture she has funny expression on her face. Like she's thinking "Oh, am I really goinging to be 50???!!!! Where the time has gone?"
Happy 50th Birthday, to our lovely Crown Princess Mary.

Quel beau couple, ils forment ; magnifique robe dont la couleur est parfaite avec les bijoux ; d'ici samedi, nous aurons certainement de nouvelles photos !
ReplyDeleteA strinkingly beautiful dress and it fits like a glove. Mary is lucky to have perfect body porportions and I guess she trains hard, almost all the clothes suits her.
ReplyDeleteFrederick looks handsome although I find these Danish uniforms a bit funny looking. - Siri

ReplyDeleteWunderschön - perfekt!

Da kann man Ihnen nur beipflichten, Lisa!
DeleteLisa und Coralie
DeleteDie beide sind wirklich wunderschoen!!
Would have preferred the midnight tiara with this beautiful gown.
ReplyDeleteC.
Exactly my thought. CC
DeleteMy eyes stopped at tiara too and I thougt the same, this tiara isn't best match with this wonderful dress for me.
DeleteMary looks great but is that a wax figure she's posing with?
ReplyDeleteNo, a tin soldier! (Just a joke)
DeleteThe model of the dress and colour ( especially in combination with the ruby jewelry ) are fantastic. It's a lovely couple. I am sorry to say that Frederik looks a bit dressed up like an actor in a comedy. Too much medals ( for what?) and other "bling bling"
ReplyDeleteNow THESE photos are portraits, not the ones of casual Mary the other day.
ReplyDeleteHandsome Fred and lovely Mary in a beautiful gown. Fred does need to cut down on his collecting medals, I know he like all little boys like their toys, but he looks too over done with this... Just kidding! lol
The dress is beautiful and perfectly matches his and hers sashes and jewellry. Sometimes we see an awful clash of the sashes with the dresses and fabrics , and this is a lesson on how to do it.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I always find the Danish uniforms a bit over the top. Mary looks wonderful though.
ReplyDeleteI think the medals he is wearing are home and foreign honours as well as military grades.
ReplyDeleteIt is the same with other royal men even though they have never fought in wars.
Btw Frederick had also a long military training and still performs military related duties at a very high level (just as Prince Joachim does).
They both look so wonderful. Mary’s gown is absolutely AMAZING- all that beadwork, perfect tailoring and those lovely colors that go so well in echoing her Crown Princess presence-the tones pointing to the blue of the Order of the Elephant and the Danish Ruby Parure. My one quibble is that I will just imagine no flesh tone above her stomach- it gives the top coloring a chevron of fabric that moves towards figure skater costume, especially in pic 4. Everything else is just so lovely- hair, make-up and jewels- in both color and black/white.
ReplyDeleteCP Fred looks so handsome, as usual, no wind, perfectly turned out in uniform.
These are great official pics.

That dress is sooooo pretty!! Winner winner chicken dinner for sure!!
ReplyDeleteMary looks phenomenal! The cool shade of the dress, has me wishing she had access to the royal vaults ! I would love to have seen her in the Floral Aigrette Tiara !
ReplyDeleteAnachronistic images... And the military grades he shows? What battles did he fight in?
ReplyDelete/W. W.
Anachronistic? I think the Danish (and not only them) see it as traditional. Times have always been changing, so it is important not to forget your traditions.
DeleteLovely dress, but it is not her colour. Everything looks to coordinated and staged, like she is performing, but Frederik looks very dapper. Janey
ReplyDeleteOf course it is staged, it is a formal portrait for an official occasion.
DeleteBeautiful photos. Mary looks beautiful. Magnificent gown.
