King Frederik X's relationship with Queen Mary of Denmark started out like a rom-com. The couple first met at a bar during the Sydney Olympics in 2000 with Mary blissfully unaware who she was chatting to. "It was perhaps half an hour or so later that someone came up to me and said, 'Do you know who these people are?'" Mary later recalled in an interview with 60 Minutes Australia . Despite Frederik's status and their physical distance, the duo's instant connection couldn't be shaken. "From the very first moment that we started talking, we never really stopped talking," Mary shared. Soon, she was moving to Denmark, learning the language, and eventually tying the knot with a future king in 2004.
Since then, the couple has welcomed four children, including their youngest, Princess Josephin
