The Daily Mirror's Royal Editor Russell Myers says there is a “split” dividing the Danish Royal Family ahead of the coronation on Sunday.
“This sort of comes from Queen Margarethe's decision to have a slimmed-down monarchy, and we’ve heard the previously ourselves, haven’t we," Mr Myers told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“But Queen Margarethe took the decision to strip the titles away from her younger son’s children.
"And she said this wasn’t just for the country, it wasn’t just for a money-saving exercise, but it was actually for them, and it would actually support them in their life moving forward and try to give them an opportunity to stand on their own two feet."
Mr Myers said Prince Joachim's children will not be going to the coronation or taking part in any of the festivities.
"And you can see this sort of split dividing the Royal Family before our very, very eyes, and it will be interesting to see how it exists when Prince Frederik and Princess Mary take the throne."
