From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Birger Valdemar Georg Flemming Kai Axel von Rosenborg, Count of Rosenborg (b. 25 January 1950) is the son of Flemming, Count of Rosenborg. He is the great great grandson of both Christian IX of Denmark, and Oscar II of Sweden, and is also descended from George II of the United Kingdom.
He married Minna Benedicta Tillisch 19 October 1974 and they had one daughter:
He and Minna Tillisch were divorced in 1978, and he married Susanne on 28 November 1981. They had no children and were divorced in 1990. He married his current wife Lynne (nee Sharpe) in 2000.
Although related to the Danish Royal Family, under the Succession to the Throne Act 1953, he is not in line to succeed 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, through his daughter Queen Louisa of Denmark and Norway.
