There are a lot of celebrity kids who have entered the modeling industry over the years, but there’s another subset of famous faces who are also joining in on the fashion fun — the royals.
The 19-year-old Prince Felix of Denmark, who is the second grandchild of Queen Margrethe and eighth in line to the Danish throne, is the latest royal to step in front of the camera for a new campaign with Georg Jensen.
The jewelry and watch brand shared two images and a video on Instagram of its new “Reflect” collection starring Felix and model Fiona Reventlow-Grinling. In one pic, the royal teen strikes a strong pose wearing a black collared shirt with two silver chain necklaces.
In the second shot, the brand captured a black and white photo of Felix in a crewneck sweater modeling a chainlink silver necklace from the new collection, which launches Tuesday, February 15.
Felix is following in the footsteps of his older brother, Prince Nikolai, 22, who first made his runway debut in 2018 for Burberry, and has gone on to walk a number of high-profile shows.
He walked the Dior Homme Menswear Spring/Summer 2019 fashion show in Paris, modeling two looks, a white and blue double-breasted suit and a slightly oversized black suit with sneakers.
Last year, he also participated in the Dior Homme Menswear Fall/Winter 2020-2021 show wearing a shirt featuring the Dior logo, plus a croc belt bag.
In 2020, the two posed together for official royal portraits released by the royal family in celebration of Felix’s 18th birthday. In two shots, Felix posed for the photos solo, flashing a subtle smile to the camera. But in a third image, he was joined by older brother Nikolai, who presumably lent a few model tips Felix’s way.
The siblings may be creating the next modeling dynasty from royal European families, following in the footsteps of those like the Casiraghis. Both Charlotte and Pierre Casiraghi, who are the children of Princess Caroline of Monaco and grandchildren of American actress-turned-royal Grace Kelly, have landed high-profile campaigns before. Charlotte just made headlines by riding a horse down the Chanel Haute Couture runway earlier this month, while her brother Pierre joined Dior as a menswear ambassador in 2021.
