Mary of Denmark and Frederik prepare to deliver the saddest news
The Danish monarchs, Frederik X and Mary, announce something important for their country that moves everyone
The recent hospitalization of Queen Margrethe has caused concern in Denmark. The emeritus monarch, 85 years old, was urgently taken to Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen on Thursday, May 8. According to the Royal House, the decision was made as a preventive measure after a severe cold forced her to suspend her official agenda and require specialized medical attention.
Uncertainty in Denmark over the health of the emeritus queen
The official announcement sought to bring calm amid the commotion. "It has been decided that Queen Margrethe be admitted to Rigshospitalet as a precautionary measure," they indicated from the palace. Despite the initial impact, the authorities clarified that her condition was not serious but required continuous monitoring given her age.

Hours after the admission, King Frederik went to the hospital to visit Queen Margrethe. His departure from the medical center was captured by the press, and his calm demeanor sent a message of reassurance. Even so, the country remains alert to every update on the health status of one of the most beloved figures in the country.
Good news from the hospital
This Friday, the Royal House issued a new update with a more hopeful tone. According to the statement, the queen is responding positively to the treatment and is in good spirits. "Queen Margrethe is expected to be allowed to leave Rigshospitalet and return to Fredensborg Palace over the weekend.

Her Majesty is recovering and in good humor," was the message they spread to calm the spirits. The news was received with relief by the citizens, who continue to closely follow every detail of the medical evolution of the mother of the current monarch. At 85 years old, Margrethe has been a central figure in Denmark's recent history and keeps a strong emotional connection with the people.
Meanwhile, her official agenda has been put on hold. She had already canceled her attendance at the 125th anniversary celebration of the St. Luke Foundation, and her presence at an upcoming reception to honor the 2025 award winner of the Bible Society is also in doubt.

Recovery at home and uncertain future
If everything continues as it has so far, Queen Margrethe will soon be able to return to Fredensborg, where she will continue her recovery in a more comfortable environment. Although the situation has stabilized, the palace has not confirmed when she will resume her public activities. Everything will depend on how she progresses in the coming days.
Queen Margrethe, mother of King Frederik and mother-in-law of Mary of Denmark, left the throne at the beginning of 2024 but continues to be a key figure in the Danish monarchy. Her recent hospitalization put the celebrations on hold but also highlighted the affection and respect she continues to inspire among the Danes.
