OVERWHELMING 'FAN'-FARE
The Danish and Spanish royals have been met with a passionate reception from the public – even signing autographs for legions of "fans" – often making them seem more like rock stars than royals. Mary was heard to exclaim "Wow!" when greeted by a sea of Australian and Danish flags at her first balcony appearance, calling it "a beautiful experience". And the Prince and Princess of Asturias experienced a genuine superstar welcome on their honeymoon tour of Spain, with bodyguards guiding them through a screaming 6,000-strong crowd during one stopover.
