Denmark’s Princess Marie opens up about Prince Joachim’s emergency surgery for the first time
April 12, 2021 - 11:41 BST Danielle Stacey Prince Joachim, 51, underwent emergency surgery for a blood clot on his brain in July 2020 Prince Joachim and Princess Marie of Denmark have opened up for the first time about the prince's stroke in 2020. In an interview with Hjernesagen's member magazine , Princess Marie, 45, said: "It was so close to a tragedy that could have changed our lives forever." Prince Joachim, 51, underwent emergency surgery for a blood clot on his brain at the University Hospital of Toulouse in France last July. READ: Princess Beatrice becomes emotional talking about her 'fabulous' grandfather - see unearthed video Prince Joachim started his new role at the Danish Embassy in Paris in September He told the magazine: "I have experienced how Marie immediately approached the situation and that with her resourceful interventions and actions, she was the one who led the way until I was handed over to the ambulance drivers in Cahors and sent on to Toulouse. She was amazing! She went into soldier mode ... I know that with Marie I have a resourceful, loving, caring and safe support." He added: "It's hard not to think about what could have happened, and I think we have learned that it is terrible for the person who is affected, but right next to it, there is someone else, and it is just as terrible for them. Never forget that... An organisation like Hjernesagen has a big role to play, and it is an important message to bring forward." The Danish royal palace shared a stunning photo of Prince Joachim and Princess Marie to mark their 12.5 year wedding anniversary in November, which was taken by their daughter, Princess Athena.

Frank Gallagher Met the Most
Photo: Paul Sarkis/SHOWTIME OBVIOUSLY, MAJOR SPOILERS TO FOLLOW. COVID-19 has done what a failing liver, alcoholism, drug abuse, dementia, being tossed in the Chicago River in the winter, and a suicide attempt could not do: kill Frank Gallagher. After 134 episodes, the Shameless series finale left troublemaking patriarch Frank Gallagher dying in a hospital from the virus he called a hoax in a previous episode. Perhaps showrunner John Wells had Miss Rona on his mind after she made a cameo on the Shameless set ? Speaking on Frank’s fate, Wells told Deadline that it felt wrong to let the man completely off the hook for the damage he has done to his body over the years. “So, we had to show that there were some consequences,” Wells said. “We tried to find some way to make it Frank-like and fun and let him hold on to who he always was in the last moments.” In his final scene , Frank floats over the city in his medical gown and gives his family some parting advice (though he can’t resist a few final insults first). “Time’s precious. Don’t fucking waste it,” he says, raising a beer. “Have a good time. I sure as hell did.” He and his barstool then float up into the sky, because we’re somehow expected to believe he is not headed down to join Lil Nas X . And, of course, the amount of alcohol in Frank’s corpse later causes a small explosion in the crematorium. Given that this is the finale of an 11-season show , the rest of the Shameless characters are afforded a pretty open ending. Tami might be pregnant, Carl and Arthur might turn Alibi into a cop bar, Lip might sell his house, Ian and Mickey might adopt a child together, and Debbie might move to Texas. If a spinoff is ever on the table, there are plenty of options to pick the story back up with anyone except Frank. At least that means William H. Macy will get a break . … [Read more...] about Frank Gallagher Met the Most
