Queen Mary's eldest daughter Princess Isabella raises eyebrows with unconventional festival outfit
Queen Mary and King Frederik's eldest daughter has done something 'no other princess would dare' do, according to a Danish royal commentator. Princess Isabella, 18, was photographed with some friends at popular local music festival Smukfest, in Skanderborg on Thursday. Her older brother Prince Christian, 19, was also at the event, but it was Isabella's black band tee that's attracted the attention of some commentators in Denmark. The princess was seen wearing a yellow bucket hat and a T-shirt whose slogan translates to 'F**ked him yesterday'. Crown Prince Christian and Princess Isabella are attending the Smukfest in Skanderborg. ðŸ'¸Dan Mariegaard — ChristinZ (@ChristinsQueens) August 6, 2025 The top is merch from Danish hip hop group, Suspekt - whose music is so dark it's often described as horrorcore - and is a variation their song titled 'F**ked her yesterday'. The choice has ruffled some feathers, with Danish political commentator Jarl Cordua, reminding the teen that there are limits to appropriate royal behaviour. 'I'm in favour of the royals letting loose a little. They always have. They should definitely be allowed to. BUT. There are limits,' he said. 'Isn't that exactly what their [the royal family's] job is? To maintain a certain standard? To show some kind of style? Dignity? I doubt that everyone thinks that's the case when a royal celebrates promiscuity on a shirt. 'We'll probably live with that shirt, but I wouldn't recommend making it a habit. Being royal is an obligation. And it's probably time for someone to tell her [Isabella] that.' Meanwhile Danish TV presenter Jim Lyngvild said he was taken aback by the outfit at first and thought 'Oh, you can't do that,' but he's since come around to it and actually thinks it's great PR for the royal family. 'It shows that there is a new king who has, in many ways, an ordinary family that represents today's values,' he said. 'The time of the ladies in the hat is over, Princess Isabella is in. 'I LOVE that our royal youngsters also have personality and courage – and don't follow the neat pleated flow. 'There are no other princesses in the world who would dare to do that.' Isabella recently celebrated her 18th birthday with the release of official photos in an amber ballgown. She and her brother are expected to remain at Smukfest until the festival ends on Sunday.

Disney princess REFUSES to take picture with theme park guest for shocking reason
A former Disney princess has revealed the shocking moment she refused to take a picture with a theme park guest after he proudly showed off a highly-sexualized tattoo of her character. Katrina, who portrayed Princess Rapunzel during her Disney College Program, took to TikTok to detail the unsettling encounter inside the Town Square Theater. She explained that the male adult guest approached her during a quiet period. 'I was 19 years old,' the content creator began. 'A man came in during our fireworks set... he was the only guest in the room. So it's just this man, the princesses, the photographers and the attendant.' Katrina said the man approached her and asked to show her a tattoo - but, at first, she thought nothing of it. 'A lot of people get Disney tattoos and they want to show you. Totally fine,' she shared. But what he then revealed was anything but innocent. 'He shows me the tattoo on his arm… and it is a risqué - to say the least - photo of Rapunzel,' she said. 'With only her hair covering her bits. And some suggestive adult things going on.' But the Disney princess quickly realized that it was not just the one wild design he had inked on his body. 'This guy's whole body is covered in tattoos like that of the princesses,' she detailed. Next, he asked her for a hug, to which Katrina declined. 'And then he said, "Well, can we take a picture?" And I said, "No. No. None of us are gonna take a picture with you,"' she shared. It was at this point that she broke character and explained the situation to the character attendant. 'I'm like, "You need to get a manager. This guy needs to cover up. None of us need to see photos like that of our character. Or give him a hug. Or don't need the character taking a picture next to that kind of a tattoo,"' Katrina detailed. She described how she felt in the moment: 'Red flag, red flag, sirens going off.' Eventually, a manager at Disney came in to intervene - offering the guest a voucher for clothes to cover up his body art. But he became increasingly disgruntled. 'He was not understanding why we were not so psyched to see him or falling all over him,' Katrina shared. 'I don't know what he thought would happen. I genuinely do not.' Dozens of people in the comments were just as horrified by Katrina's encounter. 'Immediately no. He knew what he was doing, going to the meet and greet when no one else would be there…' a user wrote. 'And in Disneyland, surrounded by children,' someone simply stated. 'Love that there are these rules. Happy he was told the issue. Hate how someone like him didn't see an issue,' another shared. 'Who even agreed to tattoo those, too?! Unbelievable,' a user questioned. 'I would be uncomfortable too, you are correct,' a person affirmed.

Book Review: Louis Sachar's debut adult novel is a zany adventure of science and magic
Anatole isn't just any magician. He's the magician of Tiger Castle, whom the king of Esquaveta once declared to be the greatest magician in all the land. 'The Magician of Tiger Castle' is Anatole's chance to set the record straight. Not about his greatness — he fully accepts the title the king bestowed on him — but about what really happened in 1523 with the princess of Esquaveta, the apprentice scribe she fell in love with, the prince she was betrothed to, and the prisoner who was kept in the dungeon for 100 years. It's the debut adult novel from Louis Sachar, author of the Newbery Medal-winning middle-grade novel, 'Holes,' and the 'Wayside School' series of memorably wacky vignettes. 'The Magician of Tiger Castle,' out Tuesday from Ace Hardcover, is every bit as creative and endearing as Sachar's dozens of children's and young adult books that enamoured kids and teachers alike for decades. The novel is told like a memoir, first-person from the magician himself. Only, he's never been a true magician; we quickly see that he's more of a misunderstood pioneer of medicine and modern science. Calling attention to the thin, hazy line between science and magic, Anatole also dips into miniature medical history lessons. So, while you're following the story of this bald magician, hypersmart scribe and headstrong princess, you're also learning about why old-timey physicians wore beaked masks or how leeches are still sometimes used in medicine today. Though it's classified as an adult novel, 'The Magician of Tiger Castle' is fairly clean, with only one or two curse words, a handful of innuendoes and some light violence, but nothing explicit. You can read the surface-level story and have a great time, but Sachar also brings literary elements to the modern fantasy-adventure table. Chess games reveal the protagonists' strengths while mirroring their evolving relationships, as well as their increasingly complicated schemes. 'The Magician' is self-aware and fourth-wall breaking, stepping outside the narrative to explain a word choice or cultural context for the fictional kingdom set somewhere near modern France. The plot is like a zany Dungeons & Dragons campaign played with friends; the storyline is meandering but with a definite aim and purpose, and the characters are lovably boisterous (or hateful, in the case of the antagonists). It's funny, surprising, smart and weird, and fully lives up to the high bar you'd expect from a great like Sachar. ___ AP book reviews:
