Despite the family’s hopes for Denmark’s success, the team tied with Slovenia, which is 57th in the FIFA rankings.
Denmark’s next match will be the team’s game against England on Thursday, a match which the Prince of Wales is expected to attend.
“The Prince of Wales, President of the Football Association, will attend the UEFA Euro 2024 group stage match between England and Denmark at the Frankfurt Arena on Thursday 20 June,” the Palace said in a recent statement. .
Queen Mary of Denmark was absent from the family photograph, as well as the couple’s eldest children, Crown Prince Christian, 18, and Princess Elizabeth, 17.
Maria’s absence comes amid rumors of marital strife since the King was photographed enjoying an evening in Madrid with Mexican socialite Genoveva Casanova last year.
The publication of the photos prompted Genoveva, 47, to issue a statement denying a romantic relationship between her and royalty and criticizing the “malicious” rumors.

It comes after King Frederick X and Queen Mary of Denmark formed a united front as they commemorated the 175th anniversary of the Constitution in Copenhagen this month.
Mary arrived at Holmen Church looking typically elegant in a bright pink long-sleeved dress and a complimentary orange hat.
The Australian-born queen’s dress featured a gold clasp belt and voluminous puff sleeves. The royal, 52, styled her brunette hair into a sleek updo to reveal her sparkling flower earrings.
Meanwhile, the father of four donned a crisp navy suit with a maroon tie for the event, also known as Grundlovsdag, which celebrates the day Denmark’s Constitution was first signed in 1853.
Also joining the reigning couple for the occasion were Queen Margaret of Denmark, 84, who abdicated the throne in January, and her sister Princess Benedikte, 80.
Margrethe, who reigned over Denmark for 52 years, made a stylish display in an all-white ensemble, complete with a wide-brimmed hat not unlike her daughter-in-law’s.
Continuing the haute couture display, Princess Benedikte opted for a deep purple coat and an off-white mid-length dress with a floral print.
Accompanying senior members of the Danish royal family to the event was the Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, 46.
Once inside the church, the royal family took a front row seat for the service, celebrating Denmark’s Constitution, which outlines the country’s democratic values.
