Princess Isabella will be confirmed in Fredensborg Palace Church by Bishop Henrik Wigh-Poulsen on 30 April. There will be a private celebration for friends and family after the confirmation ceremony.
This is the same church her older brother, Prince Christian, was confirmed in last year, and their father, Crown Prince Frederik, was confirmed in 1981.
Princess Isabella was christened in the church in 2007. Her godparents are Princess Alexia of Greece and Denmark (her father’s first cousin), Queen Mathilde of the Belgians, Nadine Johnston, Christian Buchwald, Peter Heering and Marie Louise Skeel.
