"It is with deep regret that Her Majesty The Queen has asked the Lord Chamberlain to announce:

Following a longer course of investigation, and most recently, a series of examinations conducted during late summer, a team of specialists at Rigshospitalet has now concluded that His Royal Highness Prince Henrik suffers from dementia.

 

The diagnosis implies a decline in The Prince’s cognitive functional level. The extent of the cognitive failure is, according to Rigshospitalet, greater than expected considering the age of The Prince, and can be accompanied by changes in behaviour, reaction patterns, judgement and emotional life and may therefore also affect the interaction with the outside world.

 

As a consequence of the diagnosis, The Prince will further downgrade his future activities, just as patronages and honorary memberships will be considered.

 

It is the wish of The Queen and the Royal Family that The Prince will have the peace and quiet as required by the situation."

Prince Henrik's brother: Yes, he has a problem

 

"We can see that he has problems," says Etienne de Monpezat.
 
He tells how the French part of the family has experienced that Prince Henrik alternates between being completely sharp to be mentally absent.
 
"In one moment he is not present, if you want, but the second moment he is quite normal," says Etienne de Monpezat, to Ekstra Bladet."

"After a very long flight from South Korea, Crown Prince Frederik landed shortly after 9 pm on Friday evening in Denmark and headed straight to the

hospital to visit his father, Prince Henrik.

 

"The Crown Prince went straight from the airport together with the Crown Princess to the Rigshospitalet, where they met with the queen and together visited

Prince Henrik, informs the royal office communications manager Lene Balleby to the Billed Bladet.

 

Friday evening at 8:30 pm the Queen drove from Fredensborg Palace, where she is in residence, to Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen to meet with her son and

daughter-in-law so that they could be together at Prince Henrik's side."

My thoughts are with him and his family... I do not really know much about him, has not followed his life and activity, but I have always liked how he behaved with his grandchildren. I believe he is a funny and caring grandpa.

BT is quoting Ekstra Bladet: Prince Henrik's sister Catherine de Monpezat has visited her brother.
"- She has arrived in Denmark. I can confirm that the prince's sister has visited him, says communications manager Lene Balleby."
 
Catherine de Monpezat is a nun in the Sister Order of Notre Dame de Calvaire in Toulouse.

Added: I think the Queen is there as well and possibly others. There was a pic of a Bentley parked outside the hospital and another car.

1 hour ago, commoner said:

Notice that Christian gives the guy that receives them a little matey hug:-) 

I think the guy has been Prince Henrik's chauffeur/assistant (something)  for some time now.

 

 

Christian (and Isabella) have started to notice the photographers

QM visited, J&M also and two of PH's brothers are on their way to Denmark.

I think it's slightly odd, that this brother Étienne is in constant contact with EB and BT.
