Count Christian of Rosenborg Count Christian of Rosenborg ("Christian Frederik Franz Knud Harald Carl Oluf Gustav Georg Erik"; 22 October 1942 – 21 May 2013) was a member of the Danish royal family. Born Prince Christian of Denmark, he was high in the line of succession until the constitution was changed in 1953 to allow females to inherit the crown, placing his branch of the dynasty behind that of his cousin Margrethe and her two younger sisters. He later gave up his princely rank and his rights to the throne in order to marry a commoner.
