Queen Margrethe II of Denmark was hospitalized again: she was diagnosed with a blood clot.
This was reported by the press service of the royal house.
Queen Margrethe is currently hospitalized at the Royal Hospital. She has already received medical treatment after a CT scan revealed a blood clot in her thigh, which was caused by a previous fall.
The Queen is expected to remain in hospital for several more days. Margrethe's previous hospitalisation ended on May 19.
Recall that on May 14, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark was hospitalized in Copenhagen after suffering a heart attack.
On May 15, the royal household announced that the queen had undergone coronary angioplasty (a minimally invasive surgery prescribed for narrowing or blockage of arteries and veins, — ed.) at Copenhagen's main hospital, Rigshospitalet.
On December 31, 2023, in her New Year's speech, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark announced that she would abdicate as of January 14, 2024. This occurred 52 years after she ascended the throne after her father, King Frederick IX.
On January 14, 2024, Prince Frederick X became king.
According to the decision of the Danish royal court, after the official transfer of the throne, Margrethe II retained the title of Queen for life. On April 16, 2026, she turned 86 years old.
