The Engagement

Mary’s dreams finally came true in Rome, when Frederik proposed marriage and she had to stop herself from jumping in the air and spiking a football while screaming, “Yes! Fucking finally! Bogan no more - I WILL BE SOMEBODY!!!”. Instead, she demurely accepted.


However, Mary still hadn’t bothered to learn more than a few words in Danish, and the engagement press conference had to be conducted in English.

Sadly, 4 years after the engagement and 7 years after she first met and hooked Frederik, Mary's Danish language skills are still embarrassing.

Mary was dressed in a shade of beige that was a hint as to what she would be wearing many, many times in public as a Princess. Her hairstyle was very dated and there was enough makeup to do the entire corps of the Buffalo Jills.


Mary and Frederik looking completely disconnected during their first public appearance proclaiming their love. She is trying to pose her body the best she can, and he has no desire to touch her.

It didn’t help matters that Frederik is a buffoon who can barely string two words together – when asked about Mary, he said “she is the person sitting next to me” – now, isn’t that a timeless declaration of love? Have more loving words ever been uttered?


Mary looking extremely uncomfortable and insecure, with an unflattering neckline, awful hairstyle, and overdone makeup. Frederik is looking at her like, "what kind of deranged freak have I just committed myself to?"

The next few days brought a lot of press coverage of the new Princess-to-be, who was already addicted to waving at her adoring public. To this day, Mary can be easily identified by the new royal watcher as she is the one who waves first, waves most, and waves last.

I see that the pursed lip in that godawful teal gown is in full force! Talk about being Über-bogan!

You are just fab, Royal Truths! Keep up the good work.
