I will never get over how a young AM looks so much like her great-great aunt, dagmar (future empress of russia as maria feodorovna), around the same age.

what's stranger is that her mother, ingrid of sweden, in my opinion, also resembles dagmar, yet anne-marie is principally (i mean they're all related) related to dagmar through her father, not ingrid.

Royal Godparents to Royal Godchildren

I did this list back in 2012, and got some great responses. I've updated and edited parts of the list. Again, any corrections and/or adds, message me! Thanks in advance!

When choosing godparents for their children, the parents often chose friends or other relatives. Often in royal circles, royals also pick other royals. Here’s a partial list. (Yes, I know some lists are incompelte as some of these royals’s godchildren are not royals themselves.) If you have any additions, please feel free to message me!

The Danish Royal Court has posted a video showing a new tiara being made!

Queen Mary has decided to use the rose cut diamond belt to create a new bandeau tiara. Changes have been made to the crown jewels in the past and this one is not permanent.

Goldsmith, Matias Hasbo Dinesen, made the new tiara so that all of the settings have been left intact.

The rose cut diamond set is part of the crown jewels and consists of a belt and large brooch that belonged to Princess Charlotte Amalie, sister of King Christian VI. It's not used very often so this change is very smart.

The Danish Crown Jewels are on display at Rosenborg Castle when not in use, can not be taken outside of Denmark, and are only worn by the queen. It includes four sets of jewelry; the emerald set (including the tiara), the pearl and ruby set, the brilliant diamond set, and the rose cut diamond set.

Do you think we will see Queen Mary wear her new tiara for the state banquet later this week?
