Crown Prince Frederik rang in his 35th birthday on Monday by introducing a personal website containing information on everything from his expenses to his schedule. However, anyone expecting news about his longtime girlfriend Mary Donaldson would be disappointed – the royal internet endeavour contains no mention of the Australian estate agent.

Some had speculated that the new website might be used to announce a highly-anticipated engagement between the crown prince and his girlfriend of three years. As to whether the inauguration is linked to potential wedding news, the prince's private secretary Per Thornit insists: "The launch of the home page has nothing to do with that."

What can be found on the Danish language-only website, www.hkhkronprinsen.dk, however, are plenty of striking photos of the popular royal. Also included are his calendar, descriptions of his residences and a review of how much parliament allocates to his household annually.

And why did the 35-year-old prince decide to create a website? "Frederik uses the internet a lot to get information," explained Thornit. "So we thought it would be good if he had his own homepage."
