Crown Princess Mary and Crown Prince Frederik appear to have reunited in New Zealand holiday hotspot Queenstown for a family trip after their family was rocked by ‘affair’ rumours last month.
Mary, 51, was spotted touching down in a private jet alongside her youngest children, Princess Josephine and Prince Vincent, both 12.
Meanwhile her husband Frederik, 55, arrived with their second eldest child Princess Isabella, 16, following his attendance at the COP28 summit in Dubai.
The Crown Princess wore plain black slacks, a blue long-sleeve top and dark shades on the tarmac where she hopped into a black SUV.
She wore her hair neatly pulled back and clutched her $6,000 Ralph Lauren satchel bag.

The Crown Prince made a much louder entry with a tartan jacket, blue scarf which matched his wife’s shirt and some bold, highly reflective, polarised sun glasses.
He grinned as he saw photographers and appeared to punch the air as he headed to the hangar.
The Danish royals haven’t been spotted together yet – but appear to be having an early Christmas getaway.
The family holiday follows Princess Mary’s most low-key visit to Australia ever.
The popular royal, who is from Tasmania, usually makes a number of public appearances Down Under – or is spotted ‘running around town’ by the paparazzi.
But she has barely been seen since she landed in Sydney on December 6 – without her husband – leading many people to speculate she was hiding from the media the fallout over Prince Frederik’s night out with a Mexican socialite in Madrid last month.

Prince Christian, who recently turned 18, has not been spotted in New Zealand.
The family could miss out on Queen Margrethe’s annual Christmas party at Marselisborg Castle in Aarhus which begins on December 19.
The Danish royals were rocked by photos published in October that showed Prince Frederik out for the evening in Madrid with 47-year-old socialite Genoveva Casanova.
As Spanish magazine Lecturas published the photos and alleged the pair had spent the evening at a bodega in the Spanish capital where they watched flamenco dancing and dined into the early hours, Genoveva hit back at ‘malicious’ rumours she was romantically involved with the heir to the Danish throne.
Since the photos emerged Princess Mary has remained tight-lipped about her husband’s dinner with the socialite, and the pair have put on a united display in public appearances.
