It was back to school again this week for Denmark's divorced royals Prince Joachim and Princess Alexandra. The couple, who last week accompanied elder son Nikolai on his first day back after the summer break, were fulfilling the same role for two-year-old Felix.

All smiles as they paused outside the youngster's kindergarden in the Copenhagen sunshine, the adults had obviously put past differences behind them to focus on their joint responsibilities as parents.

As Joachim boosted his younger son in his arms, Alexandra, who was in charge of the tot's rucksack, also reached out a supportive hand.

The Hong Kong-born mum-of-two was echoing the informal look she chose for Nikolai's return to school with another casual combo of light summer jacket and flip flops, rather than one of her usual elegant suits.

Alexandra, whose divorce from Queen Margrethe's younger son became final in April, is reportedly stepping out with a new beau. The Danish press says the 41-year-old has struck up a relationship with photographer Martin Jorgensen, whom she met when he was working on a documentary for her 40th birthday.
