‘No suggestion’ Prince Joachim’s children will attend Crown Prince Frederik’s Coronation

Royal commentator Angela Mollard says there is “no suggestion” Crown Prince Frederik’s brother Prince Joachim’s children will attend the Coronation. Reports suggest Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim’s relationship is so strained Prince Joachim is attending his brother’s coronation alone. 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. “This, of course, stemmed from when the Queen stripped Prince Joachim’s children of their titles – the four of them in late 2022 [were] Princes and Princesses, they were made Count and Countesses,” Ms Mollard told Sky News Australia host Caroline Di Russo. “At the time, of course, they didn’t know this was about to happen, even though it was apparently discussed, she came in quickly with this decision, and it caused a split in the family. “Mary even stood up for the Queen at that time, saying that these decisions do hurt, but, of course, the family have spent time together subsequent to that split, but the younger brother and his family have moved to Washington now, so they’re not that close. “We think that the younger brother is going to come to the proclamation, but as for his wife and the four children, there’s no suggestion that they are going to be there.”
