A prince whose four royal children have been stripped of their titles as part of a bid to slim down a monarchy has hit back at the move and says they've been 'harmed' by the situation.
The Danish Royal Family announced that four grandchildren of Queen Margrethe will lose their prince and princess titles and highness styles from January 1, 2023 - and says it is in line with "other royal houses". The move affects the children of the Queen's second son Prince Joachim - Prince Nikolai, 23, Prince Felix, 20, Prince Henrik, 13, and 10-year-old Princess Athena. Instead, they will have to use titles of count or countess and be referred to as their excellencies from next year.
