Donaldson met Prince Frederik in the Slip Inn, a bar in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia at a private party to celebrate the 2000 Summer Olympics. There were several other royal princes there also. Before this she had been travelling in the United Kingdom for several months. She moved to Denmark in 2002 where she worked briefly for Microsoft. For seven years, in the 1990s, Donaldson was in a live-in relationship with Brent Annells, a Melbourne public relations executive.

2 Marriage

Her wedding to the Crown Prince of Denmark took place at the Copenhagen Cathedral.

The Danish Folketing (parliament) passed a special law giving her Danish citizenship (which normally takes years but is a must for a royal bride). She had previously been a citizen of Australia, but also held British citizenship as her father was born in Scotland. Crown Princess Mary also converted from Presbyterianism to Lutheranism.

She signed a prenuptial agreement waiving custody of any children in the event of divorce, and limiting any claim on the assets of her husband. The agreement was officially registered moments before the court registry closed at midday on Friday 14 May 2004, the day of the wedding.

The couple honeymooned in Tanzania and Zanzibar. Their official residence is the Amalienborg Palace in Copenhagen, but they also have a residence in Chancellery House, part of the Fredensborg Palace complex about 40 kilometers from Copenhagen.
