Prince Joachim (51) and Princess Marie (45) will not attend Prince Christian’s (15) confirmation on Saturday 15 May.
This is stated by the Danish royal family, according to BT.
Prince Christian is the eldest child of Crown Prince Frederik (52) and Crown Princess Mary (49), and will one day inherit the Danish throne. Prince Joachim was the godfather’s sponsor in 2006, so it is enough with a heavy heart that they will not be able to participate when the baptism is to be confirmed on Saturday next week.
