Showing off her baby bump in a pretty purple dress and with her brunette tresses falling over her shoulders in soft waves, Marie was radiant. If she's feeling tired as her pregnancy draws to a close, the 35-year-old certainly wasn't showing it. Marie shared loving looks with her husband Prince Joachim, who held their two-year-old Prince Henrik. Completing the family lineup were Marie's stepsons Nikolai and Felix, Joachim's sons from his marriage to Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg.

An estimated 10,000 people had gathered for a chance to wish Queen Margrethe well. They were also rewarded with a glance at Princess Mary and Prince Frederik's little twins Jospehine and Vincent, who were attending their most high profile royal event to date. The adults attended a gala dinner in the evening to mark the Ruby Jubilee, though Marie wasn't in attendance.
