Wild allegations have surfaced, claiming that Prince Joachim has been harboring romantic feelings for his sister-in-law, Princess Mary.

This shocking revelation has escalated the feud between Prince Frederik and his younger brother to new heights.

According to a source who spoke to Spain’s Vanitatis el Confidencial magazine, Prince Joachim, in an apparent state of drunkenness, made an inappropriate attempt to kiss Princess Mary.

Despite her discomfort, Princess Mary managed to gracefully sidestep the situation, flashing an unfazed smile, while Joachim’s wife, Marie, witnessed the embarrassing incident.

The scandalous reports further suggest that Prince Joachim, 53, has been deeply in love with Princess Mary, 50, for quite some time.

The situation was not helped when Joachim announced his engagement to a French woman named Marie in 2007, who bore a striking physical resemblance to Princess Mary.

If these allegations hold true, they may provide insight into the underlying reasons behind the strained relationship between Princess Mary’s husband, future king Frederik, 54, and his brother.

The Danish royal family has been experiencing a significant rift ever since Queen Margaret, 82, stripped Joachim’s children of their royal titles last month.

Insiders speculate that the long-standing tensions between the two brothers may have been fueled by Joachim’s misguided emotions.

“Fred and Joachim haven’t been close in years, and this so-called Mary crush could very well be the cause,” revealed an insider to Women’s Day Exclusive.

This revelation also sheds light on the distant relationship between Princess Mary and Marie, despite being sisters-in-law.

According to Vanitatis El Confidential, the divide between the families of Frederik and Joachim became so apparent that Queen Margaret herself intervened, attempting to downplay any existing problems between the two women.

Insiders close to the situation reveal that Queen Margaret had tried for years to reconcile her sons’ feud, but ultimately, it reached a boiling point.

It is also speculated that Frederik’s anger towards his brother played a role in Queen Margaret’s public decision to strip Joachim’s children of their prince and princess titles.

Joachim, reportedly furious about the turn of events, blames Frederik’s vanity and their mother’s persuasive abilities for the family’s current predicament.

While he did not publicly address his alleged crush on Princess Mary, Joachim was forced to deny it in private.

He laments that his family has been cast aside due to petty family squabbles and baseless rumors.
