In an unexpected encounter, Crown Princess Mary of Denmark and Liam Gallagher, former lead singer of the renowned English rock band Oasis, found common ground at Copenhagen's Fashion Fair. Despite their contrasting backgrounds, the European princess and the rock star seemed to connect during their meeting.

Liam, at the fair to promote his clothing line Pretty Green, appeared slightly awed in the presence of Princess Mary, a frequent attendee of this annual event. Demonstrating respect, the 37-year-old musician bowed and kissed her hand, soon engaging in a deep conversation with the elegant royal, who has recently announced her pregnancy.

Since his departure from Oasis, Liam has been actively shaping his identity in the fashion industry. He founded Pretty Green, designed its products, and initially marketed them online. He later opened a temporary pop-up shop on London's Carnaby Street. Currently, Pretty Green specializes in menswear, with Liam noting in a Sunday Times interview, "We're not like all those fashion designers. These clothes are just for lads on the street." However, he plans to expand into women's fashion due to the brand's success.

Liam's creative pursuits also continue in music with his new band, Beady Eye, comprised of former Oasis members. They are set to release their first single this year.

Meanwhile, Princess Mary is embarking on an exciting personal journey. The 38-year-old wife of Crown Prince Frederik and mother to four-year-old Prince Christian and three-year-old Princess Isabella, is expecting twins. The royal couple expressed their immense joy and surprise at the news. Mary, attending the Danish Navy's 500-year anniversary, shared, "My husband and I are incredibly happy. And I feel fine, although a little tired from time to time."
