 Tillykke! Today is Prince Henrik of Denmark's 5th birthday! And to celebrate, the Royal Court has released three photos.
Prince Henrik was born at the Rigshospitalet weighing 3032 grams and 49 cm long. As with his brothers and cousins, his names were not revealed until his christening, which took place on 26 July 2009 at the MĆøgeltĆønder Church, where older brother Felix was also christened. At his christening he was named Henrik Carl Joachim Alain after his paternal grandfather; his father and his maternal grandfather. Henrik's second name, Carl, is possibly after his last surviving great-granduncle, Count Carl Johan Bernadotte, who attended his christening.
His godparents are Crown Princess Mary, Britt Davidsen Siesbye, Christian Scherfig and his maternal uncles Charles Cavallier and Benjamin Grandet.
