Shocking moment Queen Mary winces in pain and begins limping before being rushed indoors - cutting short official appearance in Denmark
Queen Mary has been rushed indoors after being struck by a painful ailment in the middle of an official appearance. The Australian-born royal was accompanied by her husband, King Frederik, 57, their daughter Princess Isabella, 18, and son Prince Vincent, 14, at an event in Gråsten, Denmark on Monday. While greeting her admirers, Mary, 53, who was carrying a bouquet of flowers given to her by one of her fans, suddenly winced and grabbed at her leg. She began limping and rubbing her thigh, seemingly in pain, and appeared distressed as her husband and children rushed to check on her. Mary attempted to carry on, but was soon whisked away to a nearby hotel, cutting short the outing. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The queen was bitten by a wasp, reports later claimed, and while she was unable to proceed, she insisted her family stay behind to finish the engagement. 'The queen certainly did not seem to be badly affected by the encounter with the stinging wasp, and she, together with the king, Isabella and Vincent, made sure to greet the many citizens who had gathered in the square,' Danish publication Billed-Bladet reported. Once she recovered from the sting, Queen Mary joined her family at Gråsten Palace, where the family will spend their summer holidays over the next few weeks. Mary and her husband recently embarked on a European summer getaway. The Danish royal couple - joined by their 14-year-old twins Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine - have spent much of this past month enjoying some R&R at the royal-owned Château de Cayx in Cahors, France. Danish publications reported that in early July they jetted to Cahors, located in the Midi-Pyrenees region, an area famous for its Malbec wine. And it appears they were having such a fantastic time there that they decided to extend their stay – twice. Danish publication BILLED-BLADET reported that Frederik and Mary originally planned to return to their duties in Denmark by July 13, but later updated their plans, announcing they would stay a few extra days. This date was then extended further, with the royal family's official return to Gråsten Castle slated for July 28. In the King and Queen's absence, the role as regent would fall to the next in line to the throne - their teenage son Crown Prince Christian - but he was initially unavailable. The lack of royal family members to pick up the baton meant there was no other option but to bring Queen Margrethe out of retirement. As Mary and Fred extended their vacation for a second time, the former monarch - who abdicated the throne following a 52-year reign in 2024 - was left to run the show from July 9 to July 15. When he was available, Crown Prince Christian then stepped up, with the 19-year-old holding down the fort until July 20.
