  • She sounds Australian to me. Think of Nichole Kidman. She speaks very well.

  • i wish they translated the danish!

  • she doesnt sound australian. i mean she does, but she sounds like a danish born person who came to australian at a young age. it just shows how well she is with the danish language that she forgot her natural accent.

  • They never let go of each other's hands throughout the video :')

  • GOOD LOOKING COUPLE!!!!!

  • she sounds stupid

  • Mary is my baby; she is such a nice, beautiful Scottish - Australian warmth-hearted women, that there are allllllll tooooooooooo FEW OF in the world...Mary and I have Scottish ancestors....Donaldsson and Lockhard....ed

    w w w eddy nu

    Only if it was possible to clone her; but it is not; the soul cannot and will never be possible, to clone

  • these two are the simply great! way better than Wills 'n Kate ...

  • People have to stop assuming that people are indiscrimately jealous, I disapprove Mary for a reason, she is cold, stiff, pretentious, extravagant and not very caring for others.

    On the contrary, Princess Marie is all warm and sweet, I will always remember her saying at her engagement interview "yes, he did get on his knees" ,so sweet and natural, no false accent at all. I love her so much, can you still say that I am jealous????

  • @astridbelge Oh right, when did you meet Mary then, and how well do you know her? I presume you DO know her?

  • I like them better then kate and will

  • @houstonmami08 I think I agree with you about liking Mary & Frederick better than Will & Kate. Mary & Frederick seem so down to earth and naturally friendly. This couple reminds me of another royal couple that being CP Victoria & Prince Daniel of Sweden.

  • @20031200 - the problem is that the British monarchy is incredibly well known and dissected that Will & Kate can never really totally let go. Most Americans don't even know that Denmark is a monarchy!! Denmark is a little jewel on this earth. Ive always loved the Scandinavian countries, & the fact that they could so readily & lovingly except a foreign "commoner" into the royal ranks says much of these splendid people.

  • Bet they’re more beautiful in person~~

  • They have a lot of sexual chemistry...you can see it in their body language here. Not to be disrespectful, but you can tell by the way he's sitting, and he's holding her hand near his crotch.

    AGAIN-this isn't to be disrespectful-I've studied body language so I know what I'm talking about...he seems to genuinely love her and also is tremendously sexually attracted to her-can't say this was a loveless marriage of convenience...no wonder they're still making babies!

  • Who are these people??

  • @chanctonbury63 It's the danish Crown Prince and Crown Princess :)

  • Aww he keeps holding on to her hand the whole time!!!!!! He's like "Don't worry i got you"^^

  • @JoshuaJamesFlinn exactly!!

  • He's sooooooooooo sweet!<3

  • I guess I'd better go for the first guy I see before my younger sister gets married. *sobs* i'm so jealous.........

  • i love this royal story.. it restores my faith in fairytales coming to life!

  • Than god, there is the sweet and kind Princess Marie, can't describe how I like her, and her differences from this one :)

  • @astridbelge I always that Marie had that pretentiousness in her manner and way of talking, actually.

  • I have never exaggerated anything about her, who can deny her extravgance? if that's exaggeration, then different people have different standards of judgment. all the figures I provided are from official reports, go blame them if they are indeed exaggerating.

    regards to all for your constructive feedback

  • @astridbelge She doesn't spend any more, in fact, she spends less than most of the Crown Princesses out there. So of course it's different standard of judgement from you when it comes to CP Mary because I don't see you commenting about the extravaganze and the money other CPs spend on high end fashion labels. Mary has more reason than anyone to wear fashionable clothing anyway, she is after all a patron of the fashion industry in Denmark. Your hatred of Mary is making you a complete hypocrite.

  • The Crown Princess Mary is absolutely a gorgeous lady

  • How good is she at Danish?

  • I'm danish, but I have to admit, that interviewer is seriously annoying!

  • @CrackSnackfish SO freaking annoying.

  • In another documentary, her father said that her English had taken a 'Danish' lilt as she was concentrating on learning Danish at that time. She doesn't sound like this now.

  • it seems like he loves her more than she lloves him

  • @iiGnut maybe, but we can't know that

  • @iiGnut I think she always seems to nervous and composed to be affectionate. When the cameras aren't in her face she seems far happier

  • mabye shes been taught to speak different

  • she doesnt sound australian

  • @totallyinvogue yeah I remember when I saw the interview with Andrew Denton at this time thinking that and being a bit upset (I'm Australian) but now that I've spent some time working in Germany I've found myself speaking in much the same way. It sort of happens unintentionally, you end up speaking the way the people around you speak - I think so they understand you better.

  • @zehnterapril It's called FREEDOM OF SPEECH...if you don't like what you see then DON"T FUCKING READ IT.

    Nobody's forcing you to read this! People like you make me laugh...if you don't want to get so easily upset, then watch the videos but don't read the comments just like a child. GROW UP-this is the real world!

    GET OVER IT!!!

  • @viera1963

    oh..but you are grown up? I see...

    btw..wonderful language..you must have been raised in a lovely environment and be well educated...

    looks like you're the one who cannot get over it... :-)

    ..oh..and one more thing...freedom of speech is for everyone..you don't have to read my comment or reply to it... :-))

  • @zehnterapril People like you are so quick to talk about how people were raised. You don't know how I was raised, o.k. asshole and I'll use what language I like. It's a shame YOU were raised to be such a close-minded moron.

    You have missed my point. YOU are the one who said people should be banned for their views-THAT is the part I have a problem with. People can say what they like here! THAT is what I have an issue with but you clearly don't have the brains to comprehend that, do you moron?

  • I wonder when Mary goes around to meet the plainly, sometimes even poorly dressed danish people, is she ever feeling uneasy and ashamed?

  • what happened to her english?

  • @stanstanstanstan

    I don't know - but I can tell you she's trying to sound "royal" by using this semi like British accent.

    But her accent sounds like South African English to me.

  • @NeoFalcon69 It's also possible she's using her real voice instead of faking any accent. You know, because she's from AUSTRALIA.

  • @artfreak317

    I know she's Australian and BELIEVE me her accent? Maybe it's a Tassie thing but damn that is some weird accent.

  • I really do like this couple! They seem happy after more then six years of marriage two kids and twins on the way!!! For a couple living in the spotlight, Dang thats good!!

  • How can a person who was born in Australia and grew up there, has no more the Aussies accent? I bet she doesn't proud to be an Aussie, such a shame...

  • @FrustratedCelebrity Very easily, when you learn a new language and use it as much as she does you eventually lose it. I haven't come across any Australian that isn't proud to be one so I don't think she is any different.

  • @Lerlialen1 Firstly, I used to live in Denmark for 3 years, and during my stay I forced my self to speak Danish fluently and learned intensively to have the accent. The result is..? Too bad, I speak fluently Danish with my original accent! Secondly, based on the research, someone will have some country accent if only they moved in to that country before the age of 12 y.o. After that age you wont have their accent.

  • @FrustratedCelebrity that may be true but if your taking etiquette lessons when it comes to speech you learn to pronounce letters, syllables and words in a more 'English' way, or what many may consider as 'proper' English.

  • @FrustratedCelebrity not true because i immigrated to America ta age 8 and i still have an accent

  • I guder du er en heldig mand Frede!!! :-)

  • Mary is gorgeous and so is Frederik!

  • Is Mary high, or just very nervous? This interview is so stilted compared to Joachim and Marie!

  • I don't know how long she had been in Denmark when this was taped, but the Danish accent is overtaking her Australian accent rather quickly. I lived in the UK for 3 years and it was at the 2 year mark where I noticed a little English accent replacing my Canadian one, just with certain words or phrases. There is something about her that doesn't fit - hard to explain.

  • @brousseaua I think she was intentionally talking like that.

    The 'something' that you can't put your finger is on that's she very FAKE.

  • @viera1963 because you would know since you know her so well personally. Can you tell me if the strands on her hair are fake or not as well please?

    Oh, could you also confirm for me, if reports about her taking extensive etiquette lessons in becoming a princess and her loss of her accent is due to her tireless effort in trying to speak fluently in the Danish language so she can understand her own husband and people who's country she was going to live in is true or not as well? Please ask her.

  • @Lerlialen1 People like you are unbelievably pathetic. You're being all sarcastic yet you're defending a woman YOU don't even know and who doesn't give a flying fuck about you. She expects commoners like you to bow & scrape to her-forgetting she used to be a commoner herself. You're getting an attitude and defending a woman you don't even know! Why the fuck should YOU care what people say about her? How do YOU know about her 'tireless efforts'?

    No wonder the poster is ignoring you-dumbass...

  • @MyMustsee Why the fuck would YOU care about what I say about someone I admire? It's idiots like you that claim you don't give a fuck about royals and people who actually like what they represent that are pathetic. And such a fucken hypocrite while your at it, accusing me of having an attitude while you kick up a stink about my post replying to someone else. Your a fucken laugh aren't ya you keyboard fucken warrior. STFU hypocrite.

  • @Lerlialen1 I stand by what I say, pathetic loser. You obviously don't have a life if you have time to stick your empty head so far up 'Princess' Mary's ass you can see what she had for dinner last night. You made a reply to someone who wasn't talking to your dumb ass yet have a problem with me replying to you? People like you live your lives through other people...you probably daydream that your skank ass is a princess, too huh? You probably got an orgasm watching this video wishing it was you>

  • @Lerlialen1 I bet you spend time on here obssessing about royalty. Again-they don't give a fuck about your dumb ass. You're the expert on all things royalty, accents, speech, etc. huh?

    How old are you dumb ass? It's 'fucking' or 'fuckin'-wtf is 'fucken'? You are obviously mentally retarded on top of everything else.

    Don't bother replying, stupid FUCKING bitch whore. Stop obssessing over Prince Frederik-he doesn't want your stank ass. CP Mary says to fuck off, nutjob and stop stalking her.

  • @MyMustsee For someone who claims they don't give a shit, you sure have plenty to say about it don't you? lol

    Look at you going off your rocket over what someone else like's to watch! Hold on a sec, who's getting touchy with an attitude again? :)

    Go throw stones or something.

    It's this simple thing of, if you don't like them then simply don't watch. But judging by your agitated and over the top aggression, you really care about what people say about them don't you? Awwww...how cute.

  • @MyMustsee Oooo...your so tough. Seriously, is that the best you can do? Throw insults about my mother?

    Like I said, go throw stones, I can reply to whoever I want. How does that make you feel eh keyboard warrior? How does blowing your rocket over something that you don't care about feel? Do you feel tough after writing that? Ooo..I better watch out now, nothing badder than a keyboard warrior and their lame ass threats right?

    Your so funny. Thanks for the laugh douche.

  • lovely couple

  • Gosh, they are both so lovely and I don't understand danish! I'm from sweden so I get some parts but not very much.. They are my favorite cuple in the whole world and it's hard to not know what they are saying..

  • someone should have practiced the questions with her before the interview

  • she has always struck me as hypocritical and false, when it is obvious that she loves fashion for personal pleasure and indulgence, and buys tons of extravagant foreign brands, she tries hard to make the argument in public that she is supporting Danish economy and its fashion industry, and how admirable and selfless she is by doing so.

  • @Snuzzlemus

    if she can, why she chooses to use english so often?

  • @astridbelge Also-I had to laugh...during the wedding speech when Prince Frederik was speaking in the native language she looked really annoyed, irritated and impatient! You could see she wasn't happy about it at all but had to pretend otherwise! You are right-she is a fake!!!

  • @astridbelge Look at the wedding speech at around 6:05...she started falling apart and getting really nervous because she didn't know what the hell he was talking about and was put on the spot...she porbably only understood about five wrods of the whole speech...she didn't know at that moment what to do and it showed! How much has she learned since then I wonder???

  • @viera1963

    she pretends to understand, she always pretends, look at her hard expression she always assumes in public

  • @Snuzzlemus

    all her public speeches I have seen (all of them in denmark) such as fashion show, charity, are given in English.

  • @astridbelge What happened to her learning the language-did she give up? I've tried to find footage of her speaking Danish and can't really find any-only very short clips. I agree-i don't think she speaks the language that fluently!

  • @viera1963 she dos speak danish. and very well

  • @Snuzzlemus

    why does she make almost all public speeches in English?

  • @astridbelge In fact, she doesn't :)

    BUT, in private the royal family mostly speak french and english.

  • there is only one word to describe Mary= fake

    there are only two words to describe Princess Marie= natural and sweet

    just contrast their engagement interview

  • @astridbelge quit judging people based off one little interview.

  • @elinheartstristin

    you are wrong, I have judged them based on many sources.

  • @astridbelge ok

  • shame on her, she still can't speak Danish well.

  • try to speak danish if you want to impress the danes

    which you still fail to do so

  • you fail everything

  • @astridbelge You dont know what you are talking about, so shut up.

    Who are you to judge.

  • I pity the danes, had to pay such high taxes, and watch their money so frivolously spent on their "classy and stylish" royals

  • @astridbelge I pity Canadians for living in the cold and dark.

  • @PeleusofDenmark obviously you don't know what you are talking about, most canadians live along the US border, with the great lakes to moderate temperature, my place is no more colder than Denmark :)

  • @astridbelge I was not referring to the climate.

  • @astridbelge you're so right!the danes had to pay high taves to them for their palaces,gowns,jewelleries,gala­s,travels,balls,living etc,,,,,,,,,

    What a pity!

  • @513alexandra Thats not why we pay high taxes. In fact, their "paycheck" is the world's smallest compared to other royal countries.

    The Danish Royals are both the poorest and oldest in the world.

  • @PeleusofDenmark

    poorest in the world????? what a joke, what a lie!!! they are among the highest money recipients in europe, everyone knows that!do not attempt to tell such blatant lies!!

  • @PeleusofDenmark I believe the royal family of Norway is the poorest in the world...I'm pretty certain that the Danish royal family has lots of money, property, etc.!

    Also-remember their idea of 'poor' is not our idea of poor!!!!

  • @viera1963 what gave you that idea???please reply love to know

  • Comment removed

  • @Bonulo who cares.. U got to love our royals (im a swede). Dont eva fuck with the king^^

  • she was freaking nervous of was more worried to have an english accent to impresse everybody.......she was 1 year and a half and she couldn't talk danish at all ?

    if she wanted to make a good impression she would have at least spoken one phrase in danish!!!

  • She did when they had a press conference!

  • Love this couple!

  • she is incredibly, jaw-droppingly extravagant

    she wants 28 milllions to renovate palace and have 20 washrooms installed

    not to say the millions of deficit she suffer year after year

    if this is true, mary =the new madame deficit, but I can't blame her, because extravagance is stamped deep in a woman's nature.

  • @astridbelge Please astrid, stop quoting gossip and lies from the I-hate-Mary- forums as fact. 20 washrooms? Pull that figure out of your butt?

    How is she suffering every year? I have read a few 'official' reports of her expenses (I decided to look it up for myself after noticing that you are like most of the other troll-haters on her videos...your not about fact but about a personal agenda (what reason, who knows) to smear her name. How can you justify such HATE by your constant lies?

  • @astridbelge CP Frederick allowance as of 2009 is 17, 873,004 DKK ($3,204,052.78UUSD) per year. It covers staff and his personal expenditure. 10% of that is allowance for Mary of $320,405.27USD per year. So how extravagant is this exactly? There was a deficit from 2004 of $167K due to the wedding but Frederick has paid it back. They will likely go overbudget for rennovations due to her ever expanding family and making it more homely to comply with their needs and their children.

  • @astridbelge So you work it out brainiac. $320,405.27 to buy clothes, self-maintenance, child maintenance, travel expenses, food etc and while we all like to think they should buy cheap clothes like everyone else, it's ridiculous to expect them to do so. The people are paying them to represent them out in the world and in public at all times.

    And why do you seem to think that Mary is the only member of the CPs house? Frederick, Queen Margaret are the ones who have the final say in things.

  • @astridbelge So I do not understand why you always insist that Mary has the overpowering authority over what money is being spent. And there's no way Mary was the one who decided to do the extreme renovations. It's a palace of the Royal Family of Denmark and owned by the government. The Queen will always have the final say on what major rennovations are appropriate. If what your quoting is true(highly doubt it) then it was not Mary's decision but the HM Queen Margaret herself. Any other lies?

  • @astridbelge One more thing, maybe I should take this opportunity to thank you. If it wasn't for your dedication and a few others of your friends exaggerating stories about her, I would never have been curious to find out more about the Danish Royal family. Now my fascination of Monarchies has risen and I'm very keen to read and hear more about them, especially Denmark's Royal family.

    There's no doubt I'll be seeing you around here though. I mean, how many replies has this been to you now?

  • @girlgossipshow

    thank you for your reports too,

  • Is that an australian accent

    or a contrived high class accent?

  • well as a child she lived in America, i know she went to school in texas, so her accent is probably mixed.

  • @astridbelge Mary is from Tasmania, Australia.

  • @queensword

    yes I know, I never said she is not. :) 

  • @astridbelge I am Australian as well, I don't think her accent was contrived or high class. She had been taking intensive lessons in Danish and the sentence structuring is quite different to English so switching between languages can be a bit tricky when being interviewed. Also, I think she was really nervous so was trying to choose her words carefully. 

  • i think Joachim really loves her...

  • Of course you saw something special....he was a Prince! ;-)

  • gorgeous couple

  • theirs is the real fairy tale not like charles and diana which was an arranged marriage.

    mary and frederik are real friends and lovers. together, they are adorable to watch.

  • she sounds really danish sometimes..haha

  • This couple are like something out of a fairytale! Mary was extremely lucky to have found him, and with the fact that he's kinda, handsome AND a prince! XD And she's so beautiful herself.

    I envy her. But i adore them both!

  • do u know how she met him? how was their encounter?

  • Well it was ages since it was on the news but, i think (and don't quote me on this), i remember hearing that he came to the cafe she worked at, she basically fell in love with him at first sight but didn't know he was a prince, which made him love her even more because he knew she loved him regardless of being wealthy etc. And basically that's all i remember. Again, it's been ages since i saw that on the news so don't quote me anyone. =)

  • They met at the Slip Inn bar is Sydney Australia.

  • Gosh - why is she acting like English is a second language! Thought it was her only language! lol

  • That's kind of what happens when you live in a country long enough - English starts to sound foreign and you take on that country's accent. It's funny XD

  • Mary isn't, or rather wasn't particularyly articulate, but I guess that's understandable since she was new to the limelight at the time. Her Aussie accentl isn't as harsh as Aussie neingbor in Chicago, a guy, and he's married to a Dutch woman, she has a much more pleasant sounding speech than he does.

  • Does anyone have this on dvd

  • They are gorgeous- I like the way he spoke to her and said to dare is to lose a moment but not to dare is to lose oneself for life- people who love each other belong together- nice to see this happiness around them!!!

  • Actually he was just quoting Søren Kierkegaard - the Danish philosopher...

  • who's that?

  • I like Princess Mary and Prince Frederick how they talk in this video they seem to be a lucky couple.

  • VERY GOOD COMMEN. I think with you.

  • Their are a perfect match. I love Mary's humility, there was lots of respect for the Danes in her eyes during this interview.

    Martiandoll, I think that if Joachim has a pretty great english accent it makes him more articulate than his brother "in english" yes, but it does not necessarily mean that it makes him much more intelligent, because Frederik is no dummie and anyone who has heard at least one of his speeches translated in english would realize how articulate he actually is.

  • What a lovely couple!

  • Some of these questions are ridiculous e.g. "What would you like to change?"

    I get the feeling they weren't briefed beforehand. Frederik seems quite a shy guy - which is lovely.

  • Mary is a beautiful woman. Denmark is lucky. Just wish she would stop wearing fur.

  • I love Mary

  • I Love Mary and Princess Mary is the more beautiful Princess of thr WORLD.

  • Are you all blind not to see that this girl was totally scared? You can see the panic in her eyes at 1:38 she almost couldn't speak.

    And why do you make a fuss about her accent? It sounds lovely, classy even if it doesn't sound aussie for you. What is aussiness with accent? Mary's parents were born and raised in Scotland, her dad feels more Scot than Aussie. She was in total immersion with the danish language and accent at the time, and a barely audible little switch was to be expected.

  • one of the most stupid posts I've ever read

  • thanks levanavit - took the words right out of my mouth.

  • I'd like to see one of you negative morons give an interview in front of a whole country...Let me guess, you would all be oh so perfect? Give her a damn break, it was her first ever interview and she was nervous!

  • She struggles speaking English let alone Danish! She is so fake!

  • Give her a break. First proper interview and so nerves got in her way.

  • Exactly!!!

    She had to be so nervous!

  • let's see you present yourself to your new country for approval & then we'll see how clearly you are speaking! the woman was marrying the future king - in a country that loves their royal family. as the future queen, she had a lot on her shoulders... and she wasn't groomed for this life growing up. when you're born royal, it's what you expect & are prepared for... this girl was a regular "commoner" until she fell in love with him. plenty of reason to stumble over words!

  • Overvej hvor meget en åndsforladt præsident ville koste os!

  • helt enig...

  • Overvej, hvor mange penge disse mennesker koster os.

  • Yeah, her accent has definitely been affected by learning danish, coz it;s a whole new world to learn a new language for an adult. when i was living with my german friends, and picked up a lot of german from them via osmosis, it seems i picked up a german accent too and my background is chinese. how strange.

  • I hope they will always be in love with each other as on their wedding day.

  • Do she speaks english like australians generally or is that somekind of Tasmanian dialect? I just mean that Russell Crowe and ac/dc guys speaks somehow differently, i think...

    She is very lovely in any case :)

  • she started schooling as a child in the united states... and her father's scottish... so i think she has a little bit of everything.

  • Russell Crowe is from New Zealand. But also she was nervous so that probaly affected how she spoke.

  • Tasmania

  • Where is Mary from???

  • i love them she is so graceful and beautiful! the class of princess grace and the beauty of a young elizabeth taylor/audrey hepburn!! and he is so in love and a real gentlemen!!

  • Crown Prince Fredrick is probably the HOTTEST Royal in Europe...together they make the Hottest Royal couple....from Europe's oldest Monarchy...

  • Agreed. Crown Prince Frederik is the hottest prince.

  • @royalfan1992 He's handsome!

  • @royalfan1992 i disagree, i think Prince Haakon of Norway is the hottest and then carlos of spain

  • I think Fred's cousin Prince Haakon of Norway, and Prince Felipe of Spain can give him a run for his money. :D

    Mary is beautiful and they are a lovely couple, though. Mary seems to be doing a wonderful job in Denmark.

  • Well, ALL IS OKEY BUT Prince Filipe of Spain.......NO. I don´t LIKE and NO MONEY. ONLY THE COUNTRY.......SPAIN IS A REPUBLIQUE......After dead Franco 35 Years ago, He call Juan Carlos that lived in Portugal with the money the frends..........I am portuguese, I know this story, BAD story..........Read the big scandalous in Spain !!!!!!!!!!

  • What are you talking about... learn some English first will you?

  • What the fuck is peoples problem? Mary is like extremely beautiful, I have seen her live, and she`s so outstanding and stunning that you just have to like her... And her accent here, try to speak danish, you have to learn a totally new way to speak, and of course doing this all the time for almost two years do something to the way you talk in every way.. You are just jealous!!

  • She was nervous

  • Seems her speeching skill is poor.

  • She's beautiful, he's beautiful, he's heir to a throne, they love each other.

    Full stop. You guys are morons.
