From June 29 to July 6, 2024, King Frederik X and Queen Mary of Denmark are making an official visit to Greenland. King Frederik and Queen Mary, together with Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine, started the second day of their visit to Greenland with a boat trip at Qeqertarsuaq in Disko Bay. Qeqertarsuaq is home to the research station Arctic Station.
Afterwards, King Frederik and Queen Mary arrived by the Royal Yacht Dannebrog at the King's Bridge in Qeqertarsuaq, where they were welcomed by Mayor Ane Hansen and members of the municipal council. In Qeqertarsuaq, the King and Queen met with citizens on the town's football field. From the football field, the King also initiated the Qeqertarsuaq Race, Family Mile, which is a race for all the island's residents.
It must be very cold, they are all well rugged up. I love what they are wearing, lovely jackets and coats. The twins have really grown, its lovely to see them on this trip.
ReplyDeleteJ'adore les photos de cette visite officielle ; les jumeaux sont de plus en plus mignons !
ReplyDeleteLovely family - all dressed appropriately for the Greenland weather
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures of the Danish Royal family. All dressed appropriately for the milder weather in Greenland
ReplyDeleteVincent and Josephine have Greenlandish middle names. The King has always taken a great interest in Greenland.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that! That's wonderful.
DeleteJosephines name Ivalo is also a place in Lapland Finland.
DeleteYep; Josephine Sophia *Ivalo* Mathilda, and Vincent Frederik *Minik* Alexander.
DeleteIts freezing!
ReplyDeleteMust be a bit cool.The family look good it might have been nice if they wore brighter coloured clothes as that is cheey.I like all the Icelandic bright jumpers;the people are so hearty.I saw a few icebergs (Tara)
ReplyDeleteThey are not having Icelandic sweaters but Greenlandic, and yes they are very beautiful. The royal family is in Greenland in the Arctic Circle. Greenland belongs to Denmark so they are visiting their own country and people. (Elina)
DeletePeople don't realize the Danish royal family is staying in the arctic circle. Of course it is cold there.
ReplyDeleteLove their outfits. I just put my winter clothes definitely away until next Fall. But first I would like to have 2 months of summer and sunshine and maybe an Indian summer in September in exchange for spring I didn't had in my country this year.
Purtroppo la primavera non esiste più, si passa da un inverno che “sembra” primavera ad un’estate infuocata.
DeleteA Roma (Italy) è stato freddo fino a metà giugno e ora ci sono 40 gradi, mentre il nord è flagellato dalle alluvioni.
Rossella 🖤
I'm living above the Arctic circle, and we have summer with warm weather, so not all of Arctic is cold. Also Greenland can have 20-25°C in the summer.
DeleteAnonyme 6 : 21, en septembre c'est encore l'été tout simplement ! Et c'est l'été jusqu'à l'équinoxe, vers le 20-21 septembre. "L'été indien" n'a jamais existé en septembre : c'est une très bête erreur des journalistes qui veulent faire les malins mais qui ne sont pas assez curieux pour vérifier leurs textes. Et ensuite tout le monde répète ça sans chercher plus loin. L' été indien est en novembre quand toute la nature est flamboyante de couleurs : comme les amérindiens donc ! Regardez les explications au sujet de l'été indien dans Google. Paloma.
DeleteDa quando Mary è regina mi sembra più calorosa ed accogliente, semplice nei modi e atteggiamenti, vicina anche fisicamente alle persone.
ReplyDeleteRiguardo all’abbigliamento mi sembra ovvio siano ben vestiti per la visita tra i ghiacci.
Rossella 🖤
Apres tout le Roi est d'origine francaise et cette visited lui plait enormement. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteJe ne comprends pas ce que vous voulez dire. Le papa du roi Frederik etait Henri de Montpezat, mais à part des vacances dans leur chateau en France, les enfants ont été élevés au Danemark. La reine Mary, quand elle était encore princesse, disait toujours que son mari était un vrai viking.
DeleteWhy does Mary buy her children so expensive clothes?! All danes are so angry!
ReplyDeleteSo you have spoken to all danes?
DeleteReally!?
Delete@ Anon 10:48
DeleteHope you’re O.K. We haven’t had one of your questions or comments for a week or so.
You know, you don’t need a nickname/s as your questions and comments are a dead giveaway to your identity.
Do you have a link to share of those angry danes? Nothing I have heard of.
DeleteAnon10:48. Is that so? Have you been appointed speaker of all Danes?Maybe the shirt you're probably refering to, came from his father's closet? Whenever the girls wear items from their mother's wardrobe, the Queen is getting critized for not buying them their own clothing. Would it make anybody happy if they bought their stuff from LIDL? They can't win, at least not with people like you.
DeleteSo you speak for all the Danish? Had to take a while...
DeleteI think they do not exaggerate. In the past I saw Princess Isabella with clothes of her mother. If I remember well, on the day of her confirmation she wore a white pant suit which belonged to her mother. The same for Princess Josephine she wore coats which belonged to her sister or her mother.
DeleteI thought it was just in Spain that the Royal family has to watch out with what they are buying.
Are you privy to the cost of their clothes, please do share with us.
DeleteReally? And why would the danes be angry? The family have their own money they can spend as they choose on themselves or their children. Is this not the same for all royal families to dress appropriately to visit.
DeleteI don’t think you are right that ALL danes are angry. A few are perhaps, but most of us don’t mind at all. We know that the two daughters borrow their mother’s clothes - why is it not a possibility that the boys do the same?
DeleteNonsense!
DeleteReally why would they be angry?
DeleteThe story of how expensive Prince Christian's graduation outfit had been is yet another sensationalised report of the press and some self-proclaimed "royal experts". Almost all European Royal Families (add that of Jordan to it as well) buy designer brands, have outfits custom made on occasion, and are expected to live up to a certain level of sophistication and style. While a "mix-and-match" (expensive mixed with cheaper labels) approach is certainly appreciated and oftentimes done by some of the royals (like CP Victoria wearing H&M, Princess of Wales wearing Zara), wearing designer brands still is not out of the ordinary in such circles. Queen Mary ever so often rewears, recycles, and repurposes her clothes, something she's really good at, so that one special day for Prince Christian wearing new designer pieces shall not weigh too heavily on the Danish taxpayers - I hope.
DeleteYes, the royal family has its own money but doesn’t that money come from the Danish taxpayers? Not trying to start anything just curious…and if the Danes are fine with it then that’s their business?
DeleteOh it's you again... don't speak for all the Danes, you are not even one of them. You can speak in your mother tongue, which is mine as well. Au revoir!

Re: Anon 10:48.
DeletePlease ignore the comments from this blogger.
She/he is a troll. It's provocation.
Their aim is to destabilise a topic.
Well, I'm Danish, and I'm not offended. QM is very good at rewear and also reinvent/redesign older items of clothing. And she gives her daugthers access to her extensive wardrobe. We've seen that many times.
DeleteTabloids like 'Billedbladet' and 'Ekstrabladet' took issue with Crown Prince Christian's 1500 Euro Prada shirt, 11.300 Euro Rolex watch, and 550 Euro Lanvin sneakers. And Princess Isabella wearing Dulong jewellery in excess of 3000 Euro.
And it is excessive, yes, but there are far more important issues to be mad about in the world we live in.

Clothes sharing is very common amongst the ladies of the royal families of Luxembourg, Belgium and Liechtenstein. It is nothing new. We've even seen in the past the men share ties.
DeleteWe do the same in my family, buy high quality clothing that you can offord and share it with family members - this is a way to keep away of being sustainable in fashion. It is the same with jewelery

My dear@ Anonymous at 10:48,
DeleteI work in Denmark and am based in the country for a part of the week.
I often like to spend my summer holiday in the Scandinavian countries as well.
I' ve never seen or heard of any Dane being angry or worried about the kids' expensive clothes , as you wrote.
You feign names and nationalities you know nothing about.
It has been clear to anybody for quite a long time now that you enjoy spending your time trolling and talking nonsense from some sort of lonely place you live in.
You may have access to the gutter press of course and you buy it all just because you do not seem to possess any valuable insight abilities and relevant opinions about life, people, clothing and any other topic whatsoever.
You just do not seem to have any grip on reality as such.
Many, many times have I highlighted your issues and you' re still here stirring the pot and cutting increasingly poor and hilarious figures.
Why don't you shut down your activity/ job as a troll once and for all?
Oh, don't call me aggressive, please!
Just look at how aggressive and senseless you sound in any of your pointless commentaries, no matter the language and the signature you use (if ever).
@Anonymous at 0;1:11 starring as Karen
Please dear,
don't you think it's time to say goodbye everybody and be gone?
You are no Dane, come on.
You know nothing of the northernmost countries including Greenland either.
Please, spare me your usual fake comments in Danish or any other Scandinavian language you want to select on your trusted translator.
Your show at all times and in whatever language you like to express your platitudes must end here and now.
Enough .
Bye
DNC Victoria and H&M is not a good argument since most of her H&M outfits are bespoken. So not budget. She also own stock in that company. So that one is a little sensitive.

DeleteLove the colourful sweaters, but especially the beautiful white boots. Talented people who can create such lovely wearable works of art
ReplyDeleteI read that King Frederick's book "the Kings word" sold 25 books a minute when it first came so I am sure he got a big advance and royalties from the sale of the book. It has been said that he is very good at investing so I am sure he has no problem paying for his families needs and clothes in addition to the royal allowance they receive!
ReplyDeleteNice visit to Greenland the family looks good. What happened to Josephine's lip? css
ReplyDeleteThe people of Greenland must be happy to see their new King and Queen paying them a visit. Fashion wise, warmth must be more important than style/trends. They must have a rugged life in playing their part in the Danish economy (fishing).
DeleteI read, perhaps Wikipedia, can’t remember, that they have one of the highest suicide rates in the world and a big problem with alcoholism.
Their tourism industry is growing but for the moment, it’s not on my “must-do’ list.
Princess Josephine is such a beautiful young lady.
ReplyDeleteT
what if they wear cheap clothes?,so they will also degrade or look down on Danish country?, coz their family always represents and attends in other countries, they should be modest and an representatative of the country that will look appealing and impressive!, and they are working for the country too!!
