Margrethe and Britain’s Queen Elizabeth could trace their lineage back to Queen Victoria. They were also friends, who called each other by their childhood nicknames, “Daisy” and “Lilibet.” Margrethe told ITV that she learned a lot from the British queen. “When I was growing up, my mother and father said to me, look at what they do in England, and I could see that it could be done, and it was worthwhile, and you could live a very full life with it, even with a heavy schedule and demanding job. Both she and I see it as a dedication, but also a job,” she said.
