The new King and Queen of Denmark engaged in their first royal duty today with a trip to parliament alongside Prince Joachim, suggesting the royal feud is quashed.
Queen Mary and her husband were joined by their son, Prince Christian, 18, and the King’s mother, Queen Margrethe who stepped down from her position on Sunday.
Also joining the royals was Frederik’s brother, Joachim, 54, who attended with his wife, Princess Marie, and Margrethe’s sister, Princess Benedikte.
Outside parliament, Joachim and Frederik warmly greeted each other suggesting that any feud between the pair is resolved.

The song, which is referred to as the new national anthem of Denmark, is reportedly a favourite of Queen Mary’s who looked emotional during the performance.
In 2017, the Queen said: 'It's more than a song. It is a declaration of love for Denmark, for history, for the language, for the culture, for the landscape.
“A love song that even I, even though I was not born in Denmark, can feel deep in my heart. And I know that you don't have to be born in a country to feel at home.”
Prince Joachim reportedly fell out with Mary after his children lost their Prince and Princess titles but stood alongside his mother today wearing a blue tie with red elephants.
