Though Nikolai is a royal, the seventh in line to the Danish throne will be allowed to shape his own path.

His father shared, “He must not be forced into anything.”

Explaining to *Billed-Bladet, Prince Joachim said, “Nikolai’s life must take place entirely after his own plan.”

“I want to help him on my way and try to inspire him.”
