On August 3, 2024, Queen Mary and Princess Benedikte of Denmark watched the Dressage Team Grand Prix Special at the Chateau de Versailles on the eighth day of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games in France. Queen Mary congratulated the Danish dressage riders Daniel Bachmann Andersen, Nanna Skodborg Merrald, and Cathrine Laudrup-Dufour on winning the silver medal in the team final.
King Frederik of Denmark is back in Paris to follow the Olympics. On August 2, King Frederik and Queen Mary attended the Men's Tennis Semifinal match between Carlos Alcaraz of Spain and Felix Auger Aliassime of Canada on the seventh day of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games at Roland-Garros Stadium in Paris.
The Danish Athletes have great supporters. King Queen and Pss. Mary always in style. I love her outfits. css
ReplyDeleteLove seeing then all in their national team outfits. Disappointed we've not seen more of the British Royals. Perhaps the York Princesses, the Tindalls or Lady Louise could have attended.
ReplyDeleteWho is the Tindalls and Louise?
DeleteThe Duchess of Edinburgh is at the Olympics in support of her patronages in cycling and hockey. Diane L.

DeleteZara : fille de la princesse Anne, et épouse de Mike Tindall. Tous les deux sont sportifs, c'est effectivement étonnant qu'ils ne soient pas là .
Lady Louise : fille de Sophie, duchesse d'Edimbourg, et du prince Edward. Elle aimerait sûrement suivre les compétitions d'équitation et dressage. Paloma.
Tindall is Zara Phillips married name. She and her husband often attend racing and athletic events. Lady Louise is the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh. They are King Charles’ nieces.

I just love the three ladies' hats (photo #3). All of them are wearing their individual styles so elegantly. Princess Benedikte can never put a foot wrong fashion-wise. Even at a sports event, her crimson outfit is summery and stylish (and patriotic, given the colour and her T-shirt). I also like Mary's crimson (linen?) jacket.

Princess Benedikte's belt over a T-shirt, so original.
DeletePrincess Benedikte is 80 years old and still looking 💯amazing
ReplyDelete@ Anon. 09:44
DeleteYes she is. Today she dresses sporty and young and looks younger then a lot of princesses in Europe who are much younger than she is. Love it.
Agree. She looks great and remarkably youthful
DeleteAnnieM
Oh, yes, she may be 80 but she look youthful, elegant and attentive.
DeleteI feel sorry for younger women who fret when they get 30 or 40 thinking now they are old and their life is over. No, they are not and no, their life is not over!
And Princess Benedikte shows that age is just a number and you can look great and active at any age!

Everyone is looking very average except for Benedikte. She stands out with her statement outfit.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see Princess Benedikte wearing a pantsuit.
DeleteThat would give a boost to the ladies in the over 80's club.
J'ai de suite remarqué la princesse Benedikte toute vêtue de rouge ainsi que son chapeau estival avec la touche originale bleue qui a été rajoutée avec goût comme d'habitude !
ReplyDeletelol, it looks like whatever the king is selling Q Mary is not buying. Rem
ReplyDeleteHa! True…!
DeleteI think, from a non-expert lip reader that I am, he's telling Queen Mary that he wants to go to the bathroom (toilet).
DeleteBehind those dark glasses, Queen Mary is rolling her eyes and thinking "OH, not again" 😎
Did some of their children go with them to Paris?
ReplyDeleteYes I think the youngest ones were there in the begining.
DeleteAs far as I know, none of the Royal Danish children have attended the games so far, with or without their parents. I commented on another post that this was strange since they are all a very sporting family. To my knowledge, we've only seen the parents and P. Benedikte at the games to date. I hope they attend.

Hello Anon 9:13
DeleteYes but this is a very difficult time of the year to arrange a family programme. Start and finish of school year/s, summer holidays, visits to families etc.
I hope the Noreigans and the Finnish are able to get there before the end of the games (Sun Aug.11)
The Danish Athletes had great support from the royal ladies, well done to them.
