Queen Mary recently gave fans a rare glimpse into her private life by sharing a charming photo of her two Border Collies, Coco and Grace, during a walk in the woods. The Instagram post, titled "Autumn Colors," showcases a different side of her life away from the public eye, where she is typically seen in stunning outfits alongside her husband, King Frederik.
The reactions to the photo were overwhelmingly positive. Many praised not only the beautiful dogs but also the photography skills of the 52-year-old queen. One enthusiastic follower commented, "So beautiful! The queen takes great photos!" Another added, "Very nice, the two Border Collies are also my favorites. Compliments to the talented photographer, Queen Mary." Border Collies are known for their energetic, intelligent, and loyal nature, making them ideal companions in royal life.
The love for pets is common among royals. Recently, Princess Charlène of Monaco shared that she and Prince Albert II own Chihuahuas and a Rhodesian Ridgeback named Khan. The British royal family has also long embraced canine companions. During her 60-year reign, Queen Elizabeth II owned over 30 Corgis. Additionally, Prince William and Princess Kate are proud owners of a Cocker Spaniel named Orla, who has appeared in several official photos.
