Princess Mary: Just another Aussie mum

Back home in Tassie for a short holiday, Mary shows she’s a mum first and future queen second

She might be used to the royal treatment in Denmark, but Princess Mary showed no airs or graces during her family visit to Hobart — looking like any other Aussie mum as she took in a day at the markets.

Ditching designer gowns and tiaras for jeans and runners, Mary looked relaxed as she showed Prince Christian, 3 next month, and Princess Isabella, 16 months, around her home town.

After dashing from official duties in Beijing to Denmark to pick up the kids, Mary flew into Hobart on a budget Jetstar flight, with many of her fellow passengers completely unaware of the royal cargo.

“We had no idea she was even on board until we landed in Hobart and noticed the cars, and she was allowed to get off before the rest of us,” fellow passenger Lloyd Fox told Melbourne’s Herald Sun newspaper.
