Danish royalty, the son of Queen Margrethe II and Prince Henrik of Denmark. As Frederik X he will most definitely be a modern monarch. He runs marathons, has worked among the homeless in Boston where he spent a year at Harvard, and has been caught on film by the paparazzi diving nude into the swimming pool to cavort with his beautiful pop-singer playmate. At 27, using the nom de guerre “Pingo,” he took part in a military drill to become a member of the Danish Navy’s elite Frogmen Corps, roughly comparable to the US Navy Seals.
He is quoted as saying, “I will not be given things on a plate or be shut in a castle. I want to try myself out and find myself. I will be a human being.”
On his serious side, he will be the first Danish king to have a University degree (from Aarhus).
He married Australian Mary Donaldson on May 14, 2004 in a ceremony scheduled for 4:00 PM in Copenhagen. First one and then the other of the royal couple said “I Do” beginning at 4:46 PM according to the Danish press.
The Crown Prince and his wife, Crown Princess Mary, welcomed their first child at 1:57 AM on October 15, 2005 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Their son is named Christian. Their daughter, initially unnamed was born on Copenhagen University Hospital where the new Princess of Denmark (as yet unnamed) was born on April 21, 2007 at 4.02 PM local time at Copenhagen University Hospital, (55 N 43 19; 12 East 29 33). On January 8, 2011 he and his wife welcomed twins, a boy and a girl, born in Copenhagen. The boy was born first at about 10:30 and 10:56 according to news reports.
