With a mass bath on his recent visit to the National Knowledge Center for Early Intervention and Family Research from Copenhagen, the Queen Mary of Denmark He evidenced that the small health bump that had led him to cancel his agenda last week has already overcome it. “His Majesty the Queen, like many others at the moment, has ill and, therefore, unfortunately cannot attend the awards ceremony of the Danish Association of the Heart,” the Danish press echoed the moment of the moment that the monarch was going through. Smiling in his reappearance, he made it clear that there was no gravity in his state of health.
But for international media, current concern does not fall on the possible conditions that monarchs may suffer, but in their own safety and integrity. Would be the internal problems of the team that protects Queen Mary and King Federico X. Those who would put the crown in check when they were directly harmed by what happens in the palace. If Federico’s reign has been the object of the criticism and discontent of the population during the last months, the latest revelations of the international press do not give truce to the Royal House to improve their image when they prepare to celebrate in the coming months the birthday of Princess Isabella and the summer cruise.
Being its members careful at all times by the soldiers who make up the Royal Guard of Life, a video to which he had access last week ‘Se Og Hør’ showed that the guards may not be fulfilling their functions with all their faculties. As seen in the test that the Nordic newspaper made public, a couple of bodyguards dressed in the real uniform consume narcotics on a saber inside the barracks. An image that, in addition to questioning its protective capacity of the monarchs, hides a more delicate hidden reality than it seems. This Wednesday, a documentary of the Nordic channel ‘TV 2’ shed light to the matter with which the royal family coexists.
«Behind the iconic uniforms hides a youth culture that has gone out of control. Fiestas, alcohol and euphoric drugs are a dangerous cocktail along with weapons. Endangers security? And how is something like this possible in such a prestigious institution?
On the one hand, one of them (Viktor Thomsen) Remember your time with feelings found. On the other, the second (Niklas Hladik) advoc that the crown safety equipment is examined more frequently to check if there is substance consumption. And although the high positions ensure in the documentary to be aware that there is no lack of control in those who protect the kings, they confirm it. “He was on service with someone who was not ready to start his turn,” says Thomsen. Of 151 exguards that were discussed for the realization of the format, 64% recognize the generalized consumption of drugs in loaded weapons. «The service can be very stressful. With other people, I snorted cocaine up to three times per week. Everyone knew that the companions were on duty and drugged, ”says another ex -manage.
“It is not very reassuring when people are under the effects of some substance during work,” warns one more. Of these, 110 confirm their fondness to leave several times a week abandoning security work, because they considered that they should do so to be part of “the community.” Many claim to have consumed harmful substances between one and three times a week while service in Amalienborg, and that it was even easy to go unnoticed as there was no control of the royal house. The documentary recalls the illegality of monitoring drugged palace and that since 2023 only in case of suspicion is subjected to the soldiers.
«The life of life does not recognize the image drawn in the documentary. ‘TV 2’ bases the documentary on interviews with 151 exguards that served in the 2018-2024 period. During the same period, around 7,000 completed their service. The documentary also addresses the problem of lack of controls without prior notice of alcohol and drugs. In 2024, tests have been carried out to 3,500 people and 13 cases have been registered, a figure that shows that only a very small proportion violates our standards. Each year, the lifeguard service receives a broad representative sample of a cohort of young people, and we know that some bring unfortunate habits. We implement a clear zero tolerance regarding influence during working hours. The infractions are managed immediately. The Royal Guard is a traditional institution with a great responsibility, and we took that responsibility very seriously, ”the institution replied to LinkedIn’s documentary before its broadcast making it clear that they are knowledgeable about the situation. The kings of Denmark, meanwhile, have not spoken about the matter that splashes them directly.
This is not the first time that it relates to a real European house with the uncontrolled attitudes. In 2020, three members of the Danish palace security began their work under the influence of alcohol and drugs, which meant a penalty of almost 500 euros of a fine and the prohibition of participating for a time in the official acts. Two years later, in the Norwegian royal house, 30 royal guards were prosecuted for drug use during a private party according to ‘Associated Press’. Almost at the same time, six soldiers of Queen Elizabeth II were arrested for drug trafficking and sections of the agenda by not tolerating the British army illegal behaviors; Years before, several royal guards ended up in the dungeon for going to an illegal party in possession of narcotics. The documentary only has a clear objective, expose a situation to prevent the problem instead of silencing it, a position that the crown itself has taken.
