Yes, very interesting and wonderful to see the three generations together again. (If only Frederik would find a new tailor.Love the photo of the three! Present, former, and future monarchs of Denmark.
Great to read the information behind the shield

From the pictures you can spot that "Crown Prince Christian's elephant knight's shield hangs between his parents' and just above Prince Joachim's and Princess Marie's."

Ukorrekt titel springer i øjnene på kronprins Christians skjold: Her er forklaringen
Kronprins Christians elefantridderskjold hænger nu i Ridderkapellet i Slotskirken på Frederiksborg Slot, men titlen på siden af skjoldet stemmer ikke overens med hans nuværende.www.billedbladet.dk
Also explains why it says Prince of Denmark instead of Crown Prince, that was his title in October 2023 when it was awarded.
That was my thought as well… Maybe she is at CayxDoes anyone think it odd that Queen Margrethe didn't attend?
Depends on whether she has attended other such funerals in the past. The late Queen Elizabeth never attended funerals of her courtiers.Does anyone think it odd that Queen Margrethe didn't attend?
Mary's been an avid rider since being a kid in Tasmania doing competitions. Even at the Olympics recently she could not resist going into the stables and visiting the horses.At today's funeral Mary had a small bandage on her face. "the royal house's communications department informs that it is a skin abrasion she got in connection with riding. Queen Mary has a great interest in horses and equestrian sports and is an active show rider herself."

Kongehuset forklarer: Derfor bærer dronning Mary plaster på hagen
Dronning Mary bar torsdag eftermiddag ved Per Thornits bisættelse et plaster på hagen. Kongehuset oplyser overfor BILLED-BLADET, hvorfor hun havde det på.www.billedbladet.dk
Queen Mary looks elegant and always. She has seamlessly assumed her role as Queen even with all the added responsibility. The day of Per Thornit's funeral must have been very emotional for her. He was instrumental in guiding her when she first got to Denmark and for many years after as the CPCs chief of court.At today's funeral Mary had a small bandage on her face.

She was at a funeral for someone who's been integral to her integration into the royal family... I would be concerned if she didn't look uncomfortable.Her face has a strange look about it, uncomfortable or stiff sometimes. Quite unusual looking. There must be pressure in this new role as she has looked strained ever since she got new title but she would know it would happen.
An interesting observation. I seem to recall her looking very relaxed and smiling her head off during the recent visit to Greenland. She also appeared to look very enthusiastic while at the Olympics and if my mind is not failing me I also remember a moment during an official event where she shared a tender glance with her husband.Her face has a strange look about it, uncomfortable or stiff sometimes. Quite unusual looking. There must be pressure in this new role as she has looked strained ever since she got new title but she would know it would happen.
