Mysterious French girl revealed

The French girl who was recently photographed on the steps of HRH Prince Joachim's estate Schakenborg in Denmark, has given an interview to Anna Johannesen, a reporter from the Danish magazine Billed-Bladet where the interview was exclusively published on March 16, regarding her relationship with the Danish prince.

The name of the girl is Marie Cavallier. Born and raised in Paris, she has both lived and studied abroad in the course of her 30 year long life. At the age of 13, her parents divorced and she and her mother moved to Switzerland. Today, she lives in Geneva and works in finance, but before that, she studied in Boston, USA, and worked in the computer business in New York. She has known Prince Joachim for two years, but has never met any other members of the Danish Royal Family than HH Prince Nikolai, whom she met during his skiing vacation in Val Torens with his father.

In the interview, Ms Cavallier states that: "Prince Joachim is a lovely human being. He is warm, sweet and very affectionate. He has gone through a very difficult time with a lot of hardships, but he is also a very patient and honest person. I love him very much". If things between the Prince and Ms. Cavallier are as serious as it would seem, maybe Denmark will have yet another Princess Marie from France!
