The Danish royal heir, Crown Prince Frederik, has married Tasmania's Mary Donaldson in a fairy-tale prince-and-commoner wedding that delighted pro-monarchy Danes and Australian republicans alike.
Danes lined the streets on Friday to cheer as their prince married a foreigner without a drop of blue blood, putting Donaldson in line to be the first Australian-born woman to become a queen.
The prince, popular for his common touch, cried as his princess walked up the aisle in a gown of white duchess satin with a veil of almost 100-year-old Irish lace,Donaldson's bearded father wore the kilt of his Scottish clan and Frederik wore his naval uniform.
