Jessica Mauboy meets Princess Mary

Aussie singer Jess Mauboy couldn’t contain her star struck excitement when she met Crown Princess Mary of Denmark backstage at the Eurovision concert in Copenhagen.

The former Australian Idol contestant from Alice Springs was completely surprised when she ran into fellow Aussie, Princess Mary, and her gorgeous children Prince Christian, 8, and Princess Isabella, 6 just moments before beginning rehearsals.

Dressed in a striking red coat, the much-loved Tasmanian-born Princess shook hands with 24-year-old Jess who gracefully curtseyed before engaging in a quick chat with her royal highness.

“Meeting Princess Mary was absolutely divine,” a very excited Jess told SBS.
