  • Queen Margrethe recently stripped the royal titles of her four grandchildren from son Prince Joachim, but not Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary’s kids
  • Remaining heirs include Isabella and her three siblings: Prince Christian, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine – so how’s Isabella’s fashion sense shaping up?

Queen Margrethe of Denmark, 82, recently stripped the royal titles of her four grandchildren – the children of her youngest son Prince Joachim, 53 – in a pronouncement that shocked many.

In her slimmed-down monarchy, only the kids of her eldest son, 54-year-old Crown Prince Frederik, will remain princes and princesses of Denmark.
