This year, the two descendants of the kings of the Two Sicilies met Prince Christian in Monaco. The future King of Denmark, grandson of Queen Margrethe II and heir to Crown Prince Frederik, also took advantage of this special atmosphere. The 17-year-old knows the two princesses well. His youngest sister, Princess Josephine, 12, is godfathered by the Duke of Castro, the father of Carolina and Chiara.
