Queen Margrethe has two beautiful celebrations coming up in a few weeks: her birthday and Easter. Easter means family time for the monarch, but will she finally be able to celebrate it again this time with Prince Joachim and Princess Marie?
Queen Margrethe celebrates her 82nd birthday on April 16, 2022. This year, the monarch can again celebrate her day of honor extensively. The traditional parade will also take place, as the Danish palace announced. Just one day later is Easter Sunday, a day the Danish queen prefers to spend with her family. But a joint Easter egg hunt with her youngest son Prince Joachim, 52, his wife Princess Marie, 46, and the children has been canceled in recent years. Is there a reunion now?
Queen Margrethe: Does she celebrate Easter with her two sons?
Last year, the Danish palace delighted royal fans with footage of Queen Margrethe’s Easter celebrations. At Marselisborg Palace, she happily painted Easter eggs with Crown Prince Frederik, 53, Crown Princess Mary, 50, and their children Prince Christian, 16, Princess Isabella, 14, and the twins Princess Josephine and Prince Vincent, 11. But Prince Joachim stayed with his family in his adopted home of Paris.
In addition to the corona pandemic, one reason could have been that Frederik and Joachim had a tense relationship. In the spring of 2021, Prince Joachim publicly expressed his displeasure at his role as number two in line to the throne. He and his brother had a “complicated” relationship, Joachim said at the time. But in the meantime the waves should have calmed down again. After all, Joachim and Marie took part in Princess Mary’s birthday party in February 2022 in a good mood.
So it doesn’t seem completely outlandish that this time Queen Margrethe is going on a hunt for Easter eggs with her whole family in the beautiful garden of Marselisborg Palace. That would certainly make the monarch happy.
