Although related to the Danish Royal Family, under Danish law he is not in line to inherit the throne, as he is not a descendant of Christian X. He is however in line of succession to the British throne, being a descendant of George II of the United Kingdom, through his daughter Queen Louisa of Denmark and Norway.
