Queen Margrethe makes official return after health break
Former Danish Queen Margrethe, 86, has made her first official appearance following a two-month health hiatus. On Tuesday, she attended an event at Fredensborg Palace, north of Copenhagen, to serve as patron for the Ebbe-Munck Memorial Foundation.
During the ceremony, she presented the 2026 Ebbe-Munck Prize to Masaana Egede, the director and editor-in-chief of the Greenlandic media outlet Sermitsiaq. The jury honored Egede for his independent and critical journalistic reporting for the Greenlandic population, specifically noting his handling of sensitive topics regarding US interest in Greenland.
The appearance follows a period of medical treatment after the former monarch suffered a collapse in September. While she had attended a concert on October 7, this prize presentation marks her first official engagement since her hospital stay.
