It happened at the service after the proclamation: King Frederik's loving gesture for Queen Mary was not intended for the public.
Copenhagen - When Frederik
However, for doubters of the royal couple's love, a silent gesture in the darkness of Aarhus Cathedral was of far greater significance.
The kiss between Queen Mary and King Frederik did not convince all royal fans
Even if the abdication of Queen Margrethe II (83) and the proclamation of Frederik as king had been a major distraction, there was still Frederik's alleged affair, which had shaken the Danish kingdom at the end of the year.

According to
Gala.de,
pictures came to light via the Danish broadcaster DR1, which may have convinced the last critic of the authenticity of the love between Mary and Frederik.

The mother of four's hand remained there for a while before she continued.
Already on the way into the cathedral it became clear, and was documented several times on video, how clearly Frederik's attention was on his happily beaming wife, which even prompted
