In another photo shared to Instagram, Mary and Frederik, who were married in 2004, posed alone together, with Mary laying her arm around her husband’s shoulder. 

Beaming, and with sunglasses covering her eyes, the princess looked casually chic in a grey jumper and white maxi skirt featuring a bright, holiday-appropriate print. 

She appeared to be wearing only minimal makeup, her natural complexion glowing, and wore her dark hair down and straight.

Frederik meanwhile also opted for trendy round sunglasses, and wore a pale green shirt and khakis with sneakers.
