How Princess Mary's teen son Christian's role is about to drastically change - despite him controversially 'delaying duties' when he turned 18

Daily Mail  

Crown Princess Mary of Denmark's eldest son Prince Christian will be given a very prominent role when Queen Margrethe abdicates, royal experts claim. Prince Frederik and Princess Mary's eldest son Christian, 18, will be given a new title and extra responsibilities after his father becomes king on January 14 'The change of throne is happening now, and therefore it is natural to imagine that Prince Christian will of course also have far more obligations.' After celebrating his 18th birthday back in October, the prince broke protocol by forgoing his royal allowance to focus on his education - but the study break won't last long Christian became part of the state Council when he turned 18, a role Sebastian is now 'cemented'. A statement to the Royal House's Instagram page said: 'Prince Christian's main priority in the coming year will be the completion of the Prince's upper secondary education.'
