mls Posted January 14 Author Report Share Posted January 14 So nervous at the beginning 🥹 It's very odd to feel so emotional of something happening in an other country. It would have been so nice to be there. I really like Copenhagen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandra Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 What a historic, fantastic, and emotional day! I've been following the events and news of the Danish royal family with the wedding of Prince Joachim and Miss Alexandra Manley (now the Countess of Frederiksborg). I remember when the news broke that Anna Johannsson from Billed Bladet discovered Mary out in front of her office in Sydney. When Mary and Frederik attended the wedding of Baron Otto Reedtz-Thott, when Mary and Frederik kissed on the dock in Hobart in front of photographers, their engagement, wedding, births, baptisms... the list goes on. It's incredible to see this wonderful couple become The King and Queen of Denmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cph Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 https://www.kongehuset.dk/en/news/hm-the-king-appointed-as-admiral-and-general On the occasion of his accession to the throne, HM The King has been appointed to the highest military rank in the Army, the Navy and the Air Force respectively. As admiral and general, His Majesty is now of the same rank as the Chief of Defence. https://www.kongehuset.dk/en/news/hm-the-king’s-full-dress-uniform HM The King was, for the first time, attired in the Navy’s full-dress uniform with four stars on the epaulettes (shoulder insignia) when The King was proclaimed from the balcony at Christiansborg Palace on 14 January 2024.

Izzieq Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 I noticed that too. It is weird. Frederik as King should be first. Then Mary and so on. Mathe they are still working on revising things. I'm surprised that Mary's photo was not updated. I assume photos of her were taken on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzieq Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 From the DRF Instagram. Wow the photo if the crowds is incredible and the the view of the carriage in that sea of people. https://www.instagram.com/p/C2HHmYoN-m1/?igsh=MzY1NDJmNzMyNQ== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mls Posted January 15 Author Report Share Posted January 15 https://www.kongehuset.dk/en/news/change-in-the-royal-life-guard’s-ceremony-at-amalienborg-palace-square The King’s Guard is the largest of The Life Guard’s duties at Amalienborg and the only watch duty for which a ceremony with flags is carried out. The guard coming on duty marches to the residence palace and carries out a march to the front, after which the incoming watch’s flag is collected. During the King’s Guard ceremony, the personnel involved always go to the monarch’s palace, and, therefore, from now on, the parade will go to Frederik VIII’s Palace, where HM The King resides. The flags were transferred to The King’s palace after the proclamation yesterday. The special feature of the new King’s Guard is that it now marches up with the front march before Frederik VIII’s Palace, from where the sentry command’s flag must be collected. Afterwards, the command marches across the square to the departing sentry command standing in front of Christian VII’s Palace, where the relief of the watch itself begins. The new sentries relieve the sentries who have been on duty the past 24 hours. When the departing sentry command has to march away, the ceremony concludes with a march to the front of Frederik VIII’s Palace, where the flag is delivered. Afterwards, the King’s Guard returns to The Life Guard Barracks in Copenhagen, where the personnel stay between the changes of the watches. On the occasion of the first King’s Guard for The King on 15 January 2024, The Royal Life Guard will be in the red full-dress uniform.

mls Posted January 15 Author Report Share Posted January 15 https://www.billedbladet.dk/kongelige/danmark/kaempe-nyhed-dronning-marys-soeskende-udsender-ord-efter-tronskifte Can't link to the original article in The Mercury, unfortunately. "Queen Mary's three siblings have issued touching words about their little sister in a statement to Tasmanian newspaper The Mercury." "Throughout the last twenty years, we have seen up close our sister and her husband create a beautiful family and a loving home. Their rock-solid dedication to their duties, both in Denmark and outside the country's borders, is truly admirable. We know our sister will continue to show the same strength, kindness and grace in her new role at her husband, King Frederik X's side." "Today, Denmark is her home and the love and support that the Danish people have shown her is proof of her character and we are deeply grateful for that."

Queen Margrethe has had residence. As a result of the change of throne, the Royal Guard changes. The Royal Guard is the largest of the Lifeguard's guards at Amalienborg, and the only guard where a ceremonial display of the flags is carried out. The incoming guard marches to the residence palace and completes a front march, after which the incoming guard's banner is collected. The Royal Guard always goes to the monarch's palace, and the parade will therefore go to Frederik VIII's Palace, where H.M. The king has a residence. The banners were transferred to the King's Palace following the proclamation yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
