Europa Press, en.edatv.news Frederik and Mary confirm the most controversial decision and Denmark erupts
An unexpected turn in the Danish royal family sparks criticism and causes confusion in the country
Frederik and Mary of Denmark are once again at the center of controversy, as they are facing growing criticism. Although this isn't the first time their decisions have been questioned, this new turn in their official agenda has sparked a wave of reactions. The recent decisions by the Royal House have put the Danish monarchy under more intense scrutiny than ever before.
The Scandinavian country has closely watched how members of the royal family conduct themselves. Public opinion and the criticism their members have faced seem to be increasing. With Frederik's reign marked by certain challenges, doubts about his leadership are now intensifying.
Frederik and Mary of Denmark's decision that surprises
Frederik and Mary began their vacation on July 6, and Prince Christian was designated to serve as regent. This temporary regency would have allowed him to show his worth and commitment to the Danish people as a future monarch.
The surprise came when it was confirmed that Queen Margrethe would assume the role of regent instead of her grandson, Prince Christian. According to the article published by Billed Bladet, the decision was made due to a personal trip by the heir, although no details were provided about the reasons. The lack of information has caused concern among Danes, who are questioning the direction Denmark's leadership is taking.
Queen Margrethe officially abdicated in January 2024 after a 52-year reign and has been absent from leadership since her departure. Although a statement from the Royal House assured that her health was fine, speculation increased in May due to her hospitalization for a severe cold. The visit from her son, Frederik, fueled more rumors about her health, although the Royal House clarified that these were only precautionary measures.
Prince Christian's future: military training and new challenges
Despite the controversy surrounding his absence, Prince Christian's future seems clear regarding his career. Recently, it was confirmed that the young heir would begin his training in the Armed Forces, following in the footsteps of his father and other royal heirs. After a period in Tanzania, he began his training at the Guard Hussar Regiment in Slagelse.
The prince has given up the benefits he would receive during his training, such as his monthly salary of 9,000 kroner and a meal allowance. Just like Leonor of Spain, who declined to receive compensation during her training, Christian has decided to complete his military service without accepting payment. This gesture could have an impact on his future, as it shows his commitment to the service and discipline of the Armed Forces.
