I was hoping she was announcing that she would resolve the monarchy entirely. 😢
what a genuinely beautiful energy 💜

Theres no queen of Denmark lol
Nothing but love here for Denmark from NY ☮.. but this whole Kings, Queens, Princesses, and Princes sounds like dungeons & dragons madness from a thousand years ago. It's like hearing the Pharaoh is stepping down for the next leader of ancient Egypt.

Who cares?
