Stripped of Royalty, Nikolai Dazzles at Fashion Week with Girlfriend

Nickolas of Monpezat regained attention during Australian Fashion Week on Wednesday, following the loss of his royal status earlier.

At the Aje show, located at Pier Pavilion in Barangaroo, a 25-year-old up-and-coming model, accompanied by his girlfriend Benedikte Thoustrup, took center stage in the front row.

Nikolai carried an air of refinement, donning a well-tailored tan coat along with a clean white dress shirt and a fashionable patterned necktie.

The man’s sleek, meticulously groomed jet-black hair made him look like a true style icon, fitting perfectly with his refined appearance at the front row of the fashion show.

Simultaneously, Benedikte, his captivating girlfriend who is 24 years old, dazzled in a vibrant purple frilled gown without straps, hailing from the same fashion brand.

The elegant gown hugged her figure before flaring out into a billowing skirt. 

The frill detailing added a touch of playfulness to the chic get-up.

The dress was accessorized with a sparkling diamond bracelet and shining gold earrings that caught the light, and her dark hair was pulled back into an elegant bun.

Nikolai’s self-assured walk suggests his successful entry into the world of fashion, a path he started on a year ago.

The couple appeared joyful, clearly delighted by the performance from their prized seating area, putting an end to earlier speculations about them splitting up.

In recent months, there had been whispers that the duo might have parted ways, as they hadn’t posted pictures of each other on their social media accounts for quite some time.

Benedikte, the founder of the Danish hair beauty company BénéSoie, shared a few stylish modeling photos on Instagram; however, Nikolai was missing in all of these images.

Yet, it was evident that everything was going smoothly, as the genetically fortunate pair snuggled affectionately during the most stylish Australian fashion event.

After a period of strife within the Danish Royal Family that began in late 2022, when Queen Margrethe removed the titles from her grandchildren Nikolai, Felix, Henrik, and Athena (including Nikolai) – a move that led to increased tension – it is now Nikolai who makes an appearance at Fashion Week.

At the time, Margrethe insisted the move would be ‘good for them in their future.’

She mentioned that this move would enable the children, who have retained their places in the line of succession, to independently chart their own life courses, free from the specific obligations and responsibilities associated with being part of the Danish Royal Family.

However, following his mother’s decision, Prince Joachim voiced his disagreement openly – asserting that the process had negatively affected his children.

Joachim, 55, hit out at her ‘punishment’ and claimed his four kids’ identity was being ‘removed’.

Since then, Nikolai has started his own Instagram account to boost his modeling career, which has led to less frequent appearances with his cousins and aunt.
