The Danish Royal Court has released new photographs to mark Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine’s 7th birthday on Monday, 8 January 2018.

The twins were born at Rigshospitalet (Copenhagen University Hospital) in Copenhagen on 8 January 2011. Prince Vincent was born at 10.30 am with Princess Josephine born 26 minutes later at 10:56 am (local time).

They are the youngest children of Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary and are fourth and fifth in the line of succession to the Danish throne.

At noon, 21-gun salutes were fired from the Sixtus Battery at Holmen Naval Base in Copenhagen and at Kronborg Castle in North Zealand to mark the birth of a royal child.

The twins were christened Prince Vincent Frederik Minik Alexander and Princess Josephine Sophia Ivalo Mathilda at Holmen’s Church in Copenhagen on Thursday, 14 April 2011.

Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine started Grade 0 (Kindergarten) at Tranegård School in Hellerup on 15 August 2017. Their older siblings, Prince Christian and Princess Isabella, are also students at the same school.

Two photos were taken during the Crown Prince Family’s recent holiday to Australia in December 2017.
