That doesn’t sound like a fairy tale at all, but like a modern dream: Contrary to all common clichés, Queen Margrethe and daughter-in-law Princess Mary do not have a tense relationship. On the contrary: According to experts, the monarch should see the wife of her eldest Prince Frederik as her strongest trump card.
Queen Margrethe, 81, seems to have found her greatest support in Princess Mary, 49. At least that’s what royal family expert Sören Jakobsen currently suspects in the Danish magazine “Se og Hör”. There is no doubt that the royal family relies entirely on the wife of Prince Frederik, 53, he claims. She has risen to the “boss” in her husband’s environment because she works incessantly. Frederik, on the other hand, likes things a little more casual.
Queen Margrethe entrusts Princess Mary with responsible tasks
As a marketer, Mary obviously knows how to sell. Her eloquence seems to impress her mother-in-law in particular. It was not for nothing that she was last sent by the monarch to the celebrations marking the important 100th anniversary of diplomatic relations with Lithuania. And the fact that Mary was made ruler even though she was not born royally underscores her importance. To understand: Your late father-in-law Prince Henrik, † 83, never achieved this status.

With Mary, Frederik has a “six in the lottery”
Princess Mary is the Queen of Hearts of the Danes. She is incredibly popular and enjoys the trust a future queen should have among her people. “This is also due to the fact that, unlike her husband, Mary is a perfectionist. Where he tends to show the attitude that it will work, she prepares herself thoroughly for the tasks. He relies on his popularity among the people, while she had to learn everything very hard at first. I find her more royal than the royal, “says Jakobsen.
But how does the heir to the throne react to the popularity of his wife, which is overwhelming almost everything? The royal house expert believes that this would not cause him any sleepless nights. Frederik simply won a six in the lottery with his loved one. And “Se og Hör” presumably logically assumes that not only Margrethe and the Danes agree on this, but above all Mary’s husband himself.
