Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim’s relationship will ‘take a while to heal’

News.com.au Royal Reporter Bronte Coy says there is “probably still some hurt” in Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim’s relationship, which will “take a while to heal”. Prince Joachim will reportedly attend the abdication of his mother without his wife and children. A Palace spokesperson said he will attend, but the children need to go to school. There have been suggestions of tension before 2022, but they publicly came to a head amid the fallout from Queen Margrethe’s decision to strip Joachim’s four children of their titles. “By all current reports, it looks like they won’t be there, which is, of course, drawing some parallels to some other royals that we know with recent Coronations,” Ms Coy told Sky News Australia host Caroline Di Russo. “The statement even sort of echoes to what Meghan and Harry had put out last year when Meghan and the kids didn’t attend that Coronation. “It’s a really significant family occasion and a historic occasion, so you do wonder whether that is playing a role. “While things have been smoothed over to a point, and they all spent Christmas together in Denmark, there is probably still some hurt there as they move on past this. “I think that will take a while to heal, there’s certainly some wounds there, and that may be playing a role in why he’s chosen to attend, and the rest of the family will stay back home.”
