List of Danish royal consorts

This list of Danish consorts includes each queen consort (wife of a reigning king) and each prince consort (husband of a reigning queen). Due to unions (personal and real), the queens of 1380–1814 (effectively from 1406) were also queens of Norway, and the queens of 1389–1521/23 (effectively from 1406) were also (though with interruptions) queens of Sweden. The Australian-born Mary, wife of King Frederik X, became queen consort on 14 January 2024, following the abdication of Margrethe II.

	Thyra Danebod	Thyra may have been the daughter of one of the regional Danish chiefs, probably from southern Jutland and some sagas claims that Thyra was a daughter of a duke named Klak-Harald. According to the Gesta Danorum Thyra was the daughter of Aethelred, King of England.[1] Presumably Ethelred of Wessex is intended: if Ethelred the Unready, then this is anachronistic.			9??
