Crown Prince Frederik, his brother Prince Joachim and the Queen's sister, Princess Benedikte are the only other members of the family to hold this honour.

The Australian-born royal looked stunning in her dusky pink outfit.
Looking chic she paired her favourite Claes Iversen coat with a pillbox hat and shoes in the same shade.
As is tradition, Mary curtsied as she greeted Queen Margrethe on the steps of parliament and the queen then affectionately kissed her daughter-in-law on the cheek while Prince Frederik looked on.
Both royal women were given beautiful bouquets of bright seasonal blooms.
