This year is started off with big changes in the Danish royal family. After Queen Margrethe abdicated the throne on January 14, her son became King Frederik X, her daughter-in-law became Queen Mary, and her eldest grandson, Prince Christian, became Crown Prince. Frederik and Mary's roles will definitely change as the new King and Queen of Denmark, and their four children will be more in the spotlight than ever before. Here, meet Frederik and Mary's kids.
