Danish Monarchy: Articles from 2008

[Lillianna]

Thanks! :flower:

Comment: Frederik looks good. Mary: a complete switch again (she was doing so well last week). This week: oh God, no, no, no. No. That coat is all wrong with the ensemble, among other things. Too many details. Everything clashes. The stylist must be on a break. But I like the way she has her hair.

Dronning Margrethe has the right approach. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the link!

It's funny, during his bachelor days he was more known for attending fashion events showcasing female wear, and was sometimes photographed surrounded by models after the shows. It's rare to see him at a male fashion event! :laugh:

He looks hot!  ANd so do his friends.

Is it just me, or does she look like a prettier and blonde version of JK Rowling in that picture?

OMG!  ???

I feel sooo stupid right now, because Im from Mexico, and I have no idea that the Queen Margrete was here  :blink:

But then again, this kind of news never or rarely hit the main news, because for the mayority of the mexican people is a little more interesting another kind of news. Thats a really shame!!  :cry: I hope someday that could change  :notamused:

11-03-2008 Basic Crown Princess Mary has finished her basic training in the Danish Home Guard 'Hjemmevaernet'

After announcing the couple's engagement last year, a press officer for the Danish Royal Family claimed the future princess had a bachelor degree in Marketing and Information Technology from New York's Marymount Manhattan College.

The officer also revealed Marie had studied business at Boston's Babson College for two years.

However, Danish gossip magazine Se og Hor has now discovered the 32-year-old does not have either of those qualifications, and only worked as an intern when she was in New York.

:hmm: Strange. Didn't CP Haakon recommend that Mette-Marit continue her education? Surely Prince Joachim would have done the same if they had just told the truth the first time around. (That's if this article is even true.)

[Berlin]

The DRF, Joachim, or Marie never said anything about her education. 

[Lillianna]

^^That's what I recall as well. The most I heard was that she had worked in her father's companies in Switzerland and France, or something to that effect. That's the press for you. They concocted a whole lot of stuff about Mary's qualifications and work experiences as well, above and beyond the embellishments that were already evident. It just goes to show, you can't believe everything you read! :)
