Calm, rest and canceled plans

The palace said she must remain calm, so her planned appearance at the Pantomime Theatre on May 23 was canceled. Officials described her as tired but in good spirits during her hospital stay.

Recent health history and family reaction

The 86-year-old renounced the throne in January 2024 citing health concerns. Earlier this year she underwent extensive back surgery in February and was hospitalized multiple times after a fall and a subsequent cold. Queen Mary said she visited and was pleased to see Margrethe doing better.
