Queen Margrethe of Denmark may have abdicated the throne in 2024, but she is still calling the shots in the Danish Royal Family. King Frederik and Queen Mary are the current reigning monarch and consort, but even they bow down to Margrethe’s expectations. The former Queen of the Danes had to give the current Queen Mary an etiquette reminder in front of the crowds during a royal event.
Queen Margrethe marked her 86th birthday on April 16, and celebrated with her son, King Frederik, and daughter-in-law, Queen Mary. They enjoyed a concert from the Royal Life Guards Music Corps outside Fredensborg Palace to mark the occasion. Queen Margrethe’s dog, Tilia, a dachshund, trotted up the steps and received a warm welcome from her owner. When Queen Mary bent down to pet her mother-in-law’s dog, she received a firm correction.

Who is Queen Margrethe II of Denmark? The pioneering former monarch, set designer and illustrator who shocked the world when she stripped her grandchildren of their titles
Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, an icon of the international stage, celebrates her 86th birthday on 16 April
Branded the ‘Ashtray Queen’ thanks to her smoking habit and known as ‘Aunt Daisy’ by the European royals to whom she is related (there are many), Queen Margrethe II of Denmark is an international icon, no matter what you call her.
Queen Margrethe II spent decades on the global stage as Denmark's longest-reigning monarch, ruling for 52 years until her shock abdication in January 2024. Her eldest son, King Frederik, is now on the throne alongside his popular, Australian-born wife, Queen Mary.
In 2022, Margrethe made headlines around the world when she made the explosive decision to strip four of her grandchildren – the offspring of her younger son – of their royal titles, almost immediately demoting them from Princes and a Princess to Counts and a Countess.
