Mary first met her Prince at Sydney CBD pub the Slip Inn during the 2000 Olympics. Back then, the 28-year-old had no idea she’d just met a Danish royal.
“The first time we met we shook hands,” Mary has previously revealed about their first meeting.
“I didn’t know he was the prince of Denmark. Half an hour later someone came up to me and said, ‘Do you know who these people are?'”
The first year of their romance was a long-distance relationship, with Frederik making secret trips to Australia. In 2001, Mary moved to Denmark and their story rocketed into international folklore.

“It just worked perfectly. Not just because I wanted to go down on my knee but I did, it’s the right way to do it. And then I just said, ‘You cannot say no, you must not say no, you’ll have to say yes.’ And then she said yes and it was beautiful and happy. We were happy and just the two of us.”
Now the couple have four children, Prince Christian, Princess Isabella and twins Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine.
