Queen Mary radiated elegance and warmth as she visited a children’s daycare institution in Greenland.
The 52-year-old royal’s visit to the sustainable Naasut institution in Nuuk, which fittingly translates to ‘flower’ in Greenlandic, was a heartwarming sight.
Queen Mary was all smiles as she interacted with the children, embodying grace and approachability.
The Naasut institution collaborates with the Mary Foundation’s anti-bullying program, ‘Free From Bullying,’ which has been successfully implemented in The Faroe Islands, Estonia, Iceland, Romania, France, and Greenland.
Dressed impeccably, Queen Mary looked every inch the royal in a crisp white pleated long-sleeved blouse tucked into black cigarette trousers.
Her glossy brunette tresses were styled in a wavy blow-dry, and she opted for natural makeup with a hint of eyeliner and mascara, highlighting her radiant features.

The children seemed captivated as a teacher held up a colourful book, capturing their attention with stories and illustrations.

The Queen’s visit to Greenland has been a family affair. She and her husband, King Frederik, 56, along with their children, Princess Josephine and Prince Vincent, arrived in Greenland last Saturday. The royal family is scheduled to depart tomorrow, wrapping up a memorable visit.

Earlier in the week, on Monday, Queen Mary and King Frederik appeared in high spirits as they visited Attu. The small community, with approximately 170 inhabitants, welcomed the royal couple warmly. The village council chairman, Per Ole Frederiksen, who grew up in the town, greeted them. Attu is located on a smaller island of the same name in the Qeqertalik municipality, and the visit highlighted the royal family’s commitment to connecting with even the most remote communities.

The future king, 18, graduated from high school at Ordrup Gymnasium. Proud parents Queen Mary and King Frederik were beaming with pride.
Queen Mary perfected her graduate-mum chic look in a crisp white ‘Brooket’ shirt from Bagutta, tucked into a ‘Edie’ floral A-line midi skirt from Zimmermann.
She accessorized with tan strappy heels from Gianvito Rossi, a beige ‘Canapa Stuoia Convertible Tote Bag’ from Prada, and oversized gold hoop earrings – the ‘Delphis Mega Gold’ style from Dulong.
