Incredible moment Queen Mary's teenager daughter walks up to Amalienborg Palace and rings the doorbell to be let in
The youngest daughter of Queen Mary and King Frederik X of Denmark delighted royal fans by casually entering her home like it was any other abode and not a royal residence.
Instagram account @copenhagenfrow, which spots famous faces in and around the Danish city, shared the clip to its profile with the caption, 'The princess got FROWED! casually walking into the palace.'
The 14-year-old, accompanied by a friend, strolled by the royal guard who was standing outside her home before entering a pin in the door and going through the gate.
Josephine cut a chic figure in a pair of oversized blue denim jeans, a white jumper, and a quirky black-and-white striped bag.
The original clip quickly gained over 200,000 views. It wasn't long before it was reshared on TikTok.
After an account shared the footage on TikTok, viewers took to the comment section to share their thoughts.
One said, 'The way they just casually open the door like opening an apartment door. I find it so adorable.'
Another thought similarly, adding, 'Ringing the doorbell like it's just any apartment building.'
'To you it's a palace, but to her it's just home,' said a third user in the comment section.
A fourth wrote, 'People say she doesn't act like a princess [and] she's just down to earth.'
It comes after Denmark's royal household released Princess Isabella's first official gala portraits to mark her 18th birthday last month.
The eldest daughter of Queen Mary and King Frederik X of Denmark, who enjoyed multiple events in honour of her birthday, posed for the photographs at Knight's Hall of Frederick VIII's Palace in Amalienborg.
Isabella put on a dashing display in a vibrant orange ballgown, which was adorned with the Order of the Elephant and a miniature portrait of her father.
The 18-year-old, who opted for a glowing makeup look, added a pair of turquoise and diamond earrings and a matching tiara.
The caption read: '18 years ago today Her Royal Highness Princess Isabella was born.'
'The birthday itself is marked with the publication of the Princess's first official gala portraits.
'The princess is photographed in the Knight's Hall of Frederick VIII's Palace in Amalienborg, and on the portraits Her Royal Highness wears the Order of the Elephant with a star chest... and a miniature Order portrait of her father, His Majesty the King.'
One day before Isabella's birthday, the Danish Royal Family shared a scrapbook of adorable intimate family pictures.
To mark her milestone birthday, the proud parents posted an array of childhood snaps of Isabella and her family throughout various stages of her life.
The royal family's Instagram caption read: 'Little glimpses from childhood to 18 years old.
'On the occasion of Her Royal Highness Princess Isabella's 18th birthday on Monday, Their Majesties the King and Queen share here a selection of memories.'
These included an adorable snap of Queen Margrethe - who abdicated the Danish throne in January last year - holding her newborn granddaughter shortly after she was born.
The former monarch was seen smiling as she looked down at Isabella while cradling her in her arms.

Another sweet black and white image also showed a young Isabella smiling as she clutched onto her mother's back.
A second endearing photograph showed older sister Isabella touching Mary's baby bump when she was pregnant with twins Josephine and Vincent in 2010.
The couple also chose a picture of Isabella - who is called Bella for short in some of the scrapbook captions - and her late grandfather, Prince Henrik of Denmark, who passed away in 2018.
The monochrome image showed the Princess wrapping her arms around Henrik, giving him a huge hug.
The extensive post also included snaps of Isabella with her Australian Scottish grandparents on Mary's side.
Mary's parents are Scottish, but they emigrated to Hobart, Tasmania, where she was born in 1972.
Her mother, Henrietta Clark Donaldson, sadly passed in 1997 following complications from a heart surgery when Mary was just 25 years old.
Her father, John Dalgleish Donaldson, remarried a British crime writer Susan Horwood, who writes under the name Susan Moody.
Elsewhere, another picture showed a young Isabella swimming and spending quality time with her father, King Frederik.

Other images showed Isabella from when was around five years old on family trips in Tisvilde, a seaside town in Denmark, and her feeding a horse - along with more recent snaps of her with the family border collie, Grace.
Princess Isabella reportedly enjoyied a private birthday celebration with family and loved ones to mark the occasion.
From this year onwards, Princess Isabella will also have her birthday added into the rotation of annual flag days, which are the official dates when the national flag is traditionally flown.
In addition to celebrating at the lavish Royal Theatre's Old Stage in Copenhagen last Tuesday, Isabella also had an earlier party on April 11, which, according to Hello, cost a staggering £32,542.

Princes Harry and William's close pal Duke of Westminster is in a 'delicate dilemma' after the birth of his first child - and 'is still considering whether to ask both brothers to be godfathers'
The Duke of Westminster is said to be in a 'delicate dilemma' after considering whether to ask both Prince Harry and Prince William to be his daughter's godfathers. Billionaire aristocrat Hugh Grosvenor, 34, and his wife Olivia, 32, welcomed their first child, Cosima Florence Grosvenor, last month, a year after the pair had a lavish wedding, in which the Prince of Wales was an usher. Grosvenor, who is King Charles 's godson and known as Hughie to his friends, is close to both Harry and William and is thought to be the only one of their friends who was chosen to be a godparent to both of their sons, Prince George, 12, and Prince Archie, six. Friends of the Duke and Duchess of Westminster say they haven't made a final decision on who will be Cosima's godparents, but it is understood that William, 43, will be a godfather, according to the Sunday Times. However, it was reported that the new father is still considering whether to also ask Prince Harry, amid ongoing tensions between him and the Royal Family since the Sussexes upped sticks to California, leaving their position as senior royals in 2020. It is believed that both brothers sent their congratulations to the couple after their daughter was born on July 27. A date has not currently been set for the christening. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex did not attend Grosvenor's wedding at Chester Cathedral or his opulent reception bash at Eaton Hall last June, while William was invited to be a part of the big day, greeting guests and guiding them to their seats before the ceremony. It was later revealed by the newspaper that the Duke of Westminster had planned to invite Harry and his wife, but was conscious that the rift between the brothers might cause further tension and overshadow the couple's nuptials. At the time, a friend of the brothers told the Times: 'It's incredibly sad it has come to this. Hugh is one of very few close friends of William and Harry's who has maintained strong bonds and a line of communication with both. 'He wishes they could put their heads together and patch things up, but realises it's unlikely to happen before the wedding. 'He wanted to avoid anything overshadowing the day, especially for Olivia, and doesn't want any awkwardness.' It was later reported that sources close to the Sussexes suggested Harry and Meghan had received a 'save the date' card for the June wedding, but they had decided not to attend because it would be 'too awkward'. It is understood that the brothers have not spoken to each other since Queen Elizabeth's death in September 2022, where they were seen putting their conflict behind them and acting in a civil way towards each other. The occasion marked Meghan's last time visiting the UK - with Harry returning sporadically on his own. The rift between the Sussexes and the rest of the Firm has only grown as the couple publicly chastised the Firm. In his tell-all memoir Spare, Harry described how his position left him seemingly bubbling with resentment, writing: 'I was the shadow, the support, the Plan B. I was brought into the world in case something happened to Willy. 'I was summoned to provide back-up, distraction, diversion and if necessary, a spare part. Kidney, perhaps. Blood transfusion. Speck of bone marrow.' The Duke of Sussex has not seen his father, King Charles, since February last year, when he travelled to London from the US after Buckingham Palace announced the monarch's cancer diagnosis. The father-of-two is expected to travel to the UK again next month to attend the WellChild awards, a charity which supports ill children, however it is not known whether he will meet up with the King. In an interview with the BBC in May, Harry said: 'There is no point continuing to fight any more. Of course, some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book. Of course, they will never forgive lots of things. But I would love a reconciliation.' He then added: 'I don't know how much longer my father has. He won't speak to me.' The Daily Mail contacted a spokesperson for the Duke of Westminster for comment. Once considered one of the country's most eligible bachelors, Hugh became an instant billionaire when he inherited his title and control of the historic Grosvenor Estate aged just 25, after his father died from a heart attack in 2016. His property company, Grosvenor Group, owns hundreds of acres of land in Mayfair and Belgravia, as well as major city centre developments such as Liverpool's One shopping centre. The duke donated £12.5 million to the UK's Covid relief effort in 2020, including funds for NHS Charities Together and for medical research and development. In April, the Duke and Duchess of Westminster joined Prince William and Prince George to cheer on Aston Villa in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League against Paris St Germain. It was their first public appearance after announcing they were expecting a baby. Hugh and Olivia showed their support, each wearing matching burgundy scarves with Aston Villa emblazoned in white across the length of the neckwear. Earlier this year, a spokesman for the pair said: 'The Duchess is expecting a baby in the summer. The couple are delighted with the news and are very much looking forward to starting a family together.' Last month, the happy couple also revealed their daughter had been named Cosima Florence Grosvenor. A spokesperson for the pair said: 'The Duke and Duchess of Westminster are thrilled to announce the birth of their baby daughter. Both the duchess and Cosima are doing well. The Duke and Duchess now look forward to spending this special time together as a family.' The pair announced their engagement in April 2023, after being together for two years. They decided to marry at Chester Cathedral, before inviting around 400 guests including Princess Eugenie and TV producer Phil Redmond, to go to a lavish reception at the Grosvenor family seat, Eaton Hall, just outside Chester. The Duke paid for free ice cream, gelato and sorbet for Cheshire locals from three local independent cafes so they could join in the celebration. And a staggering 100,000 flowers - all paid for by the Duke - were planted throughout the city and donated to charity following the ceremony. No expense was spared as Olivia arrived at the Cathedral in a vintage 1930 8-litre Bentley owned by the Grosvenor estate. The bride's veil was designed by Emma Victoria Payne and featuring an embroidery design which incorporated floral motifs from her great-great-grandmother's veil from around 1880. Her dress was made by the same designer and she accessorised with blue shoes and the Faberge Myrtle Leaf Tiara made for Grosvenor brides to wear on their wedding day, which has been in the family since 1906.

Nineties pop sensation Whigfield, 55, revives her heyday hairdo with retro buns as she showcases her age-defying looks in stunning selfie
Nineties pop sensation Whigfield showed off her age-defying good looks while rocking a throwback style in a new Instagram post. Whigfield, 55, took things back to her heyday as she wore her hair in Princess Leia-inspired plaited buns - in a perfect nod to Nineties style. The Saturday Night hitmaker, real name Sannie Charlotte Carlson, looked radiant as she posed for the selfie alongside a slew of other youthful snaps. Whigfield became a household name thanks to her hit single Saturday night, a UK number one for the singer following its release in 1994. It proved to be the Danish singer's biggest success on British shores and even earned its own dance routine, which became a staple at primary school discos and family parties up and down the country. Whigfield battled breast cancer over a decade ago and previously posted a snap of her inflamed right breast online and added that she was lucky to have left the hospital following the health ordeal. She explained in her post to raise awareness for breast cancer: 'Fighting breast cancer was a strange thing. 'One moment I was living my best life making new music in London, the next I was stuck in a bubble of numbness. 'Even though the operations and radiation therapies were tough, I got so much strength from seeing so many other patients including kids fighting this horrible disease, and many never left the San Raffaele hospital in Milan again.' She added: 'I hope this pic (taken during radiation therapy) Doesn't offend anyone but helps to get checked once in while even though you're feeling amazing. Wish you all a healthy and happy life.' Fans thanked the singer for raising awareness of breast cancer and told her she was a brave woman. Appearing on Lorraine in 2019, the singer admitted a healthy lifestyle has helped her maintain a youthful complexion. She said: 'The secret is do everything different to what you did in the 90s. I sleep every night at 10, I eat healthy and I exercise everyday. I'm not a naughty girl anymore.' Whigfield displayed her incredibly smooth complexion and full pout during an appearance on Lorraine in 2019 (L) and pictured in 1993 (R) Reflecting on life away from the spotlight, Whigfield also revealed she lives on the outskirts of Milan, in the Italian countryside. She said: 'In the old days I was just so busy. I was sometimes promoting three singles at the same time. It was mad. Now I stop and smell the roses.' The singer admitted she has turned her back on mainstream music over recent years, opting instead to focus on the vibrant international club scene. She added: 'I've been doing house music for the past three years. I've been writing music for other DJS.' Whigfield previously said she was 'really honoured' that Saturday Night became so popular, but wishes she'd have been more prepared for her sudden rise to fame. 'I wish someone would have prepared you for these things, because you're kind of just pushed out into the whole thing,' she told 9Honey. 'You need a strong personality and I think you have to be sure of what you're doing. 'Because I love being on stage - I really enjoy it sincerely and I love the audience.'
