Crown Princess Mary and Crown Prince Frederik have shared a wholesome insight into their family Christmas.  

In a sweet video posted to the Danish royal family Instagram account, the entire family gathered together in  the family’s official residence, Amalienborg in Copenhagen, to celebrate the festive  season and decorate their  Christmas tree.  

In  the video,  Crown Princess Mary and Crown Prince Frederik are joined by their children,  Christian, Isabella, and twins Vincent and Josephine to decorate the tree.  

Prince Frederik climbs a ladder to adorn the massive tree, as Princess Mary passed ornaments to her eldest son Prince Christian.

Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine, 12, are seen holding red candles and Princess Isabella, 16, also adds some of the candles to the tree.

The family are joined by their border collie dogs, who bring a charming chaos to the  decorating process.  

The video ends with a close up of a very  special Christmas tree ornament: a detailed  ceramic  replica of the impressive  royal  residence.  

The video, which has been shared on all the Danish royal family’s social media accounts, is accompanied by the following words which have been translated into English.

“Christmas greetings from the Crown Prince family, who recently decorated the family Christmas tree in the Hall of Knights in Frederik VIII’s Palace at Amalienborg.”

The Danish royals are taking some time out over the holidays following what has been a busy and somewhat tumultuous year.
