Denmark: Queen Margrethe Hospitalized for the Third Time of the Year After a Malaise
Doctors are treating a blood clot and dehydration as the former Danish monarch remains under observation and misses King Harald V’s funeral.
- Queen Margrethe was admitted to Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen on Sunday, September 6, where doctors are treating her for a blood clot in her hip region and mild dehydration.
- In May, Margrethe underwent an angioplasty after seeking care for heart-related symptoms. Later that month, doctors treated her for significant bleeding in the hip area following a fall.
- The Danish Royal House confirmed the Queen is "in good spirits" and doing well given the circumstances. She will remain under observation for the coming week to undergo further examinations.
- Her hospitalization prevents Margrethe from attending the funeral of her close friend, Norwegian King Harald, in Oslo on Wednesday. The late monarch died August 28 after reigning 35 years.
- Margrethe abdicated in January 2024 after 52 years as Denmark's head of state, passing the crown to her son, King Frederik. His Australian-born wife, Mary, became the new queen.
