Prince Joachim and Princess Marie share two delightful new photos to mark their daughter Princess Athena’s 7th birthday on Thursday, 24 January 2019.

Princess Athena is rugged up against the winter chills in front of a log cabin in one photo and on the coast, holding during a holiday break with the family dog, in the second.

Athena Marguerite Françoise Marie, the youngest child and only daughter of Prince Joachim and his second wife Princess Marie, was born at 8.27 am on 24 January 2012 at Rigshospitalet (Copenhagen University Hospital) in Copenhagen.

The little princess was 49 cm (about 19 inches) in length and weighed in at 2.930 kg (about 6 pounds 7 ounces).

Her proud father Prince Joachim was present throughout the birth.

Her Highness Princess Athena is currently tenth in the line of succession to the Danish throne.

Princess Athena currently attends St Joseph Sisteren’s School in Ordrup, which is close to her home in Copenhagen.
