Queen Margrethe of Denmark Has Been Hospitalized for the Second Time This Month
The palace said the former monarch is doing well under the circumstances and will stay at Rigshospitalet for several days after doctors found a large clot.
- On Monday, former Queen Margrethe, 86, was admitted to Copenhagen's Rigshospitalet after a fall caused bruising and a significant accumulation of blood in the hip area, the royal palace said.
- Margrethe's recent health challenges include angioplasty earlier this month and a major back operation in 2023 that prompted her to reconsider her long-held opposition to abdication.
- Scans revealed "a significant accumulation of blood in the hip area following a fall," while the former queen, a heavy smoker for much of her life, remains popular among Danes despite facing multiple recent health problems.
- Crown Prince Frederik, turning 58 on Tuesday, completed the Royal Run across Randers, Middelfart and Copenhagen—running 16 kilometres with the final 10 kilometres in about 56 minutes—and said he would likely visit his mother at Rigshospitalet.
- Margrethe's abdication two years ago, a reversal of her previous stance against stepping down, positioned King Frederik for expanded royal duties as the former queen continues managing ongoing health challenges.
