Members of the Danish Royal Family have been touring the country on the Royal Yacht Dannebrog every summer for the past 100 years.
This is the first time Frederik and Mary are participating in a summer tour as reigning monarchs - following the King's ascension to the throne in January. Last year, it was Frederik's mother, Queen Margarethe, 84, who completed the boat tour. In December 2023, Queen Margrethe shocked the nation and many royal watchers around the world when she used her annual New Year's Eve speech to announce live on television that she was stepping down as Queen after 52 years.
This made Margrethe the first monarch to abdicate the Danish throne in 900 years and lead to speculation that the royal had made this decision to keep her daughter-in-law, who is extremely popular with the public, on side. The announcement came just weeks after Frederik hit the headlines when he was pictured on a night out in Madrid with a Mexican socialite, sparking rumours of an alleged 'affair'. The former monarch signed her historic abdication papers with her son and grandson Prince Christian, 18, present in Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen.
The Queen's last words before leaving the Council of State were: 'God save the King.' King Frederik X and Queen Mary on a city walk in the city of Assens Australian-born Mary and Frederik's 23-year romance was often dubbed a 'real-life fairytale' after they met in a Sydney pub. But pictures emerged of the monarch having an evening out with Mexican socialite Genoveva Casanova - the former daughter-in-law of the billionaire Duchess of Alba - in November last year.
The pair were seen walking through Madrid before heading to her apartment building, changing clothes and heading out again for the evening. The Danish Palace refused to comment on rumours of an affair between Frederik and Genoveva, however the socialite strenuously denied any suggestion of a romantic relationship. The Royal Yacht Dannebrog has served as the Danish Royal Family's cruise ship since May 1932 and has travelled over 800,000 miles.
The luxury yacht hosts the Royal Family on both their private holidays and during official overseas engagements. The yacht's royal compartment still contains furniture and fittings dating back to 1879 that that was on board the family's previous yacht.
