COPENHAGEN, Sept 24 (Reuters) - Danish Crown Prince Frederik will marry Australian-born Mary Elizabeth Donaldson, the royal palace announced on Wednesday.
Denmark's Queen Margrethe will officially approve the marriage between her 35-year-old heir and his law graduate girlfriend on October 8, the palace said in a statement. The couple will officially announce their engagement then.
Most guys are worried about asking her father for the hand in marriage. In this case the bride-to-be has to ask the mother of the guy. What a place.
"I can't give a firm date for the marriage yet, but it will take place next year," the crown prince's private secratary Per Thornit told Reuters.
Donaldson is a 31-year old former real estate agent from the island state of Tasmania. Her mother died young and her father, a university mathematician, later remarried author Susan Moody. She met Frederik during the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
And you thought the Sydney Olympics was a sporting event. It is part of Australia's plot to colonise the world. Buwhahahaha.
