If you thought royal family drama was so last century, buckle up, buttercup, because Princess Isabella of Denmark is shaking things up with her 18th birthday portraits.
The young royal, who is basically one step away from ruling the kingdom, decided to spice up her photo shoot by posing with her cell phone, giving the royal protocol a big ol’ slap in the face.
Royal fans were not having it, with some calling her the “ultimate modern royal,” while others questioned if this was a brave new world or just a sign of the impending apocalypse.
Despite the controversy, some people had Isabella’s back, praising her for adding a “modern touch” to the royal family’s stodgy image.
Her fashion choices didn’t escape scrutiny either, with some fans side-eyeing her choice of an off-the-shoulder ball gown paired with a sash and regalia that screamed “old world meets new world (and not necessarily in a good way).”
But hey, it’s her birthday and she can wear a dress made out of candy wrappers if she wants to, right?
And let’s not forget the icing on the cake — she accessorized her regal look with some bling from her grandma, Queen Margrethe, who passed down a tiara and some diamond earrings.
Not really sure why all this matters, but hey, it’s always fun to see the royals causing a ruckus, isn’t it?
