Queen Mary of Denmark has been living her best life as a monarch, along with her husband, King Frederik X.
The Australia-born queen has been a subject of fascination among Aussie royal enthusiasts.
However, her recent public appearance raised several questions about her well-being.
Queen Mary of Denmark made her first public appearance after a horse-riding accident which left her with visible injuries.
This incident came after another alarming event, where she got knocked to the ground by a scooter in Greenland.
The Queen's recent string of accidents has put her fortitude to the test.
As she attended the funeral of former Court Chief Per Thornit in Copenhagen, Queen Mary had a large bandage covering a graze along her jawline.
Despite the Band-Aid matching her natural skin tone, its rough texture was hard to miss and hinted at the injury.
The horse-riding accident occurred at her home while resting between royal tours.
The scooter incident happened during a visit to Greenland's capital, Nuuk.
Queen Mary was struck by a scooter driven by an elderly man, to which she fell in front of her youngest children, Prince Vincent and Princess Josephine, and the crowd.
Onlookers were horrified as the Queen cried out and fell.
Yet, in regal fashion, she quickly regained her composure and stood up.
Her security team intervened to prevent the scooter from moving further.
The scooter driver—more shaken than Queen Mary—expressed his confusion over the event.
He initially wanted to reach out to the Queen but inadvertently hit his scooter's accelerator.
Despite these back-to-back accidents, the palace media team confirmed that Queen Mary did not sustain major injuries and continued her scheduled engagements as usual.
However, Queen Mary concealing her injuries spoke volumes about her commitment to her royal duties, even in the face of pain.
Queen Mary's ability to maintain her poise and carry on with her responsibilities is a testament to her strength of character.
We can all learn something from Queen Mary's example.
Life can be unpredictable, and we may face a series of challenges that test our mettle.
