Crown Princess Mary brought her
youngest children to her latest royal engagement on Wednesday.
The Danish royal was joined by her 11-year-old twins, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine, as they visited Copenhagen Zoo.
Crown Princess Mary looked elegant in a navy checked coat from British
retailer, Hobbs, and a high neck burgundy jumper for her outing, accessorizing
with a fedora-style hat. Meanwhile, royal siblings Prince Vincent and Princess
Josephine wrapped up against the February chill in puffer jackets and beanie
hats.
The royals were pictured feeding the penguins and viewing the kangaroo
enclosure at the zoo. Crown Princess Mary made the visit to a new facility
dedicated to Australian animals, named in her honour and in celebration of her
50th birthday on Saturday.
Their outing comes the day after the royal visited the Koldinghus to
open the exhibition “Mary and the Crown Princesses”.

The Danish royal court has also shared some stunning new portraits of Crown
Princess Mary with her husband, Crown Prince Frederik, ahead of her milestone birthday.
The photographs show the royal wearing an ice blue embellished gown by
Lasse Spangenberg Copenhagen, with the glittering Ruby Parure tiara and its
matching earrings, bracelet, a brooch and a ring.

Mary, who was born in Hobart, Tasmania in 1972, married Crown Prince
Frederik in May 2004. As well as twins Vincent and Josephine, the couple also
share two elder children, Prince Christian, 16, and Princess Isabella, 14.
A gala dinner to mark the crown princess’ 50th birthday had been due to
take place at Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen on 4 February, but this has been
postponed amid the current health situation with the pandemic.
The palace has said that Crown Princess Mary will spend her special day
on Saturday privately.
