'''Ingrid of Sweden''' (Ingrid Victoria Sofia Louisa Margareta;<ref>{{cite web|title=Dronning Ingrid|url=https://www.kongehuset.dk/monarkiet-i-danmark/tidligere-dronninger/dronning-ingrid/|access-date=1 May 2024|archive-date=1 May 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240501161733/https://www.kongehuset.dk/monarkiet-i-danmark/tidligere-dronninger/dronning-ingrid/|url-status=live}}</ref> 28 March 1910 – 7 November 2000) was [[List of Danish consorts|Queen of Denmark]] from 20 April 1947 to 14 January 1972 as the wife of [[King Frederik&nbsp;IX]].

Ingrid was born into the [[House of Bernadotte]] as the only daughter of [[Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf of Sweden]] (later King Gustaf&nbsp;VI Adolf) and his first wife, [[Princess Margaret of Connaught]]. In 1935, she married Frederik, then [[Crown Prince of Denmark]]. The couple had three daughters: [[Margrethe II|Margrethe]], [[Princess Benedikte of Denmark|Benedikte]], and [[Queen Anne-Marie of Greece|Anne-Marie]].

In 1947, Frederik became king upon the death of his father, [[King Christian&nbsp;X]], and Ingrid became [[queen consort]]. As queen, Ingrid reformed the traditions of Danish court life, abolished many old-fashioned customs at court and created a more relaxed atmosphere at official receptions. In 1972, Frederik died and was succeeded by his and Ingrid's eldest daughter, Margrethe II. Ingrid died in 2000.

==Early life==
[[File:Crown Prince Gustav (VI) Adolf of Sweden w fam 07729v.jpg|thumb|left|Princess Ingrid (far right) with her father, mother and three brothers in 1912.]]
Ingrid was born on 28 March 1910, at the [[Stockholm Palace|Royal Palace]] in Stockholm as the third child and the only daughter of [[Gustaf VI Adolf of Sweden|Gustaf Adolf, Crown Prince of Sweden]] and his first wife, Princess [[Margaret of Connaught]]. Her mother was a daughter of [[Queen Victoria]]'s third son [[Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught and Strathearn]] by his wife [[Princess Louise Margaret of Prussia]].

She was baptised Ingrid Victoria Sofia Louisa Margareta in Slottskyrkan (the Royal Chapel) in Stockholm, Sweden on 5 May 1910. Her godparents were: the [[Gustaf V|King]] and [[Victoria of Baden|Queen of Sweden]] (her paternal grandparents); the [[Sophia of Nassau|Dowager Queen of Sweden]] (her paternal great-grandmother); the [[Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught and Strathearn|Duke]] and [[Princess Louise Margaret of Prussia|Duchess]] of Connaught and Strathearn (her maternal grandparents); the [[Princess Louise of Prussia|Dowager Grand Duchess of Baden]] (her paternal great-grandmother); the [[Alexandra Feodorovna (Alix of Hesse)|Empress of Russia]] (her mother's paternal first cousin); [[Princess Alexander of Teck]] (her mother's paternal first cousin); the [[George V|Prince of Wales]] (her mother's paternal first cousin); [[Prince Adalbert of Prussia (1884–1948)|Prince Adalbert of Prussia]] (her maternal second cousin); the [[Princess Hilda of Nassau|Grand Duchess of Baden]] (her grandaunt); and the [[Princess Therese of Saxe-Altenburg|Dowager Duchess of Dalarna]] (her great-grandaunt).<ref>Roger Lundgren, ''Ingrid, Prinsesse af Sverige, Dronning af Danmark'', ''People's Press'', 2010. Retrieved 15 August 2013.</ref>

Ingrid and her family lived in apartments in the Royal Palace in Stockholm, in a mansion at [[Ulriksdal]], near the capital, and in a summer residence, [[Sofiero Palace]] in [[Helsingborg Municipality|Helsingborg]], [[Scania]] in southern Sweden.{{Citation needed|date=November 2021}} Crown Princess Margaret founded a school for Ingrid with a small circle of Swedish noble girls. Ingrid was also given some domestic instruction as part of her education. As a child, she practiced cooking in her model cottage on the palace grounds and even washed the dishes after meals. In 1920, when Ingrid was just ten years old, her mother died from [[sepsis]] while in the eighth month of her sixth pregnancy.<ref name="timesobit">{{cite news |title=Crown Princess of Sweden – Death After Short Illness |work=The Times|page=15 |date=3 May 1920}}</ref><ref name="The Guardian">{{cite news|title=Ingrid, Queen Mother of Denmark|url=https://www.theguardian.com/news/2000/nov/08/guardianobituaries2|newspaper=The Guardian|access-date=28 September 2018|archive-date=28 September 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180928161342/https://www.theguardian.com/news/2000/nov/08/guardianobituaries2|url-status=live}}</ref> After her mother's death, Ingrid spent several months of each year in the United Kingdom in the care of her grandfather.{{Citation needed|date=November 2021}} Observers suggested that Ingrid's strong self-discipline was shaped as an effect of her mother's death.<ref name="The Guardian"/> Her father remarried [[Lady Louise Mountbatten]] three years later. Louise was a [[second cousin]] of Ingrid's. Only a [[stillborn]] daughter resulted from her father's second marriage. Ingrid felt betrayed by her father when he remarried, and she was unkind to Crown Princess Louise. Ingrid and her father would not reconcile until many years later.<ref>Roger Lundgren quoting close royal family members in ''Ingrid – prinsessa av Sverige, drottning av Danmark'' {{ISBN|978-91-85183-81-4}} pp. 17-20</ref>

Ingrid was taught [[history]], [[art history]], [[political science]], and learned several languages. Her knowledge of art and culture was extended by long stays in Paris and Rome. Along with her father, stepmother and brother [[Prince Bertil]], Ingrid took a five-month journey through the Middle East between 1934 and 1935.{{Citation needed|date=November 2021}} She was interested in sports, especially [[horse-riding]], [[skiing]] and [[tennis]].{{Citation needed|date=November 2021}} Ingrid made her debut at the opening of the [[Swedish Riksdag]] in 1928 when she was noted to be "smartly dressed". She was also noted to be an accomplished linguist, horsewoman, skier, skater and dancer. She often played tennis against her grandfather King [[Gustav V]]. During her young adulthood, Ingrid was often seen driving her two-seat car around Stockholm.{{Citation needed|date=November 2021}} Besides gaining a reputation as a stylish young woman, she was known as being quite attractive. After her visit to the United States in 1939, Americans described her as "tall and very slender" with a "nicely modeled mouth and exquisite teeth".{{Citation needed|date=November 2021}}

== Marriage ==
{{further|Wedding of Frederik, Crown Prince of Denmark, and Princess Ingrid of Sweden}}
[[File:The newly married royal couple running through the city.jpg|thumb|The newly married royal couple at their arrival in Copenhagen in 1935]]
The question of Ingrid's marriage was a hot topic of conversation in the 1920s. She was matched with various foreign royalties and was seen by some as a possible wife for the heir apparent to the British throne, the [[Edward VIII|Prince of Wales]], who was her second cousin.<ref name="dfat">{{cite web|url=http://www.info.dfat.gov.au/info/historical/HistDocs.nsf/(LookupVolNoNumber)/18~128|title=Historical documents – Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade|publisher=info.dfat.gov.au|access-date=15 September 2015|archive-date=5 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120205183909/http://www.info.dfat.gov.au/info/historical/HistDocs.nsf/(LookupVolNoNumber)/18~128|url-status=live}}</ref> Her mother, Margaret of Connaught, and the then-Prince of Wales' father, King George V, were first cousins, both being grandchildren of Queen Victoria. In 1928, Ingrid met the Prince of Wales in London. However, no engagement took place.<ref name="dfat2">{{cite web|url=http://www.info.dfat.gov.au/info/historical/HistDocs.nsf/(LookupVolNoNumber)/18~140|title=Historical documents – Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade|publisher=info.dfat.gov.au|access-date=15 September 2015|archive-date=5 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120205183917/http://www.info.dfat.gov.au/info/historical/HistDocs.nsf/(LookupVolNoNumber)/18~140|url-status=live}}</ref> She was also considered as a match for [[Prince George, Duke of Kent|Prince George of the United Kingdom]], the fourth son of King George V.

On 15 March 1935, shortly before her 25th birthday, her engagement to [[Frederik IX of Denmark|Frederik, the Crown Prince of Denmark and Iceland]], who was 11 years her senior, was announced. They had gotten engaged in private in the beginning of February.<ref>{{cite AV media |people=Mandal, Marcus (director) |date=1999 |title=Frederik – Konge til alle tider |type=Television production |language=Danish |url=https://www.dr.dk/drtv/se/frederik-_-konge-til-alle-tider_431914 |access-date=6 April 2024 |publisher=[[DR (broadcaster)|DR]]}}</ref> They were related in several ways. As descendants of [[Oscar I of Sweden]], they were third cousins. Through [[Leopold, Grand Duke of Baden]], they were third cousins. And finally through [[Paul I of Russia]], Frederik was a fourth cousin of Ingrid's mother.

The couple was married in [[Stockholm Cathedral]] on 24 May 1935 by the Archbishop of Uppsala, [[Erling Eidem]]. Ingrid wore the veil of Irish lace her late mother, [[Princess Margaret of Connaught]], had worn at her wedding 30 years earlier. The veil has since been worn by all of Ingrid's female descendants as well as her granddaughter-in-law [[Mary Donaldson]]. She wore a crown of [[Myrtus|myrtle]] from a shrub her mother had brought with her from [[Osborne House]] in England to [[Sofiero Palace]] in Sweden. Carrying a sprig of myrtle in the wedding bouquet is a tradition that maintains to this day in the Swedish royal family and, with Ingrid, has continued into the Danish royal family when she brought cuttings from the shrub at Sofiero to be planted at [[Fredensborg Palace]]. Ingrid's second cousins [[Princess Ragnhild, Mrs. Lorentzen|Princess Ragnhild]] and [[Princess Astrid of Norway]] served as bridesmaids while Count Gustaf Bernadotte of Wisborg, son of [[Folke Bernadotte]], was a page boy.

Among the guests at the wedding were Frederik's parents, [[King Christian X]] and [[Alexandrine of Mecklenburg-Schwerin|Queen Alexandrine of Denmark]]; Ingrid's father and stepmother, [[Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf]] and [[Louise Mountbatten|Crown Princess Louise of Sweden]]; and Ingrid's grandparents, [[King Gustaf V of Sweden]] and the [[Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught and Strathearn|Duke of Connaught and Stathearn]]; as well as [[Leopold III of Belgium|The King]] and [[Astrid of Sweden|Queen of the Belgians]] and [[Olav V of Norway|The Crown Prince]] and [[Märtha of Sweden|Crown Princess of Norway]].

The Swedish royal barge [[Vasaorden (barge)|Vasaorden]] transported the couple to [[HDMY Dannebrog (A540)|Dannebrog]], the Danish royal yacht, on 24 May. Two days later, they arrived in Copenhagen aboard the yacht before leaving for a honeymoon to Rome. Her wedding was one of the greatest media events of the day in Sweden in 1935, and received so much attention that the media were criticised for it. {{Citation needed|date=November 2012}} Ingrid also appeared on the radio in 1935 and read a poem, something that was also given much attention. {{Citation needed|date=November 2012}}

==Crown Princess==
[[File:May 9th 1945 (10536964834).jpg|thumb|Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Ingrid on 9 May 1945, leaving [[Christiansborg Palace]] in Copenhagen after the first [[State Opening of Parliament#Equivalents in other countries|opening]] of [[Rigsdagen|Parliament]] following the end of [[German occupation of Denmark|Nazi Germany's occupation of Denmark]].]]

While she was Crown Princess, she was the official patron of the [[Pigespejdernes Fællesråd Danmark|Girl Guides]] (1936), after having taken, and passed, the same tests all applicants were given. In 1940, before the occupation, she was the leader of the ''Danske Kvinders Beredskab'' (The Danish Women's war-effort society).<ref>Börge Outze & Aage Svendstorp (in Swedish): 5 år i bojor. Danmark under ockupationen 1940–1945 (5 years in chains. Denmark during the occupation) Aktiebolaget boktryck (1945) Hälsingborg</ref> During the German occupation of Denmark in [[World War II]], Ingrid, with her personal courage and integrity, influenced the Danish Royal House and its conduct in relation to the occupation forces, and won great popularity as a symbol of silent resistance and public patriotic moral. She showed solidarity toward the Danish population, and could often be seen on her bicycle or with her baby carriage on the streets of Copenhagen during the war. Her open defiance of the occupation forces made her grandfather, King Gustav of Sweden, worry about the risks, and in 1941, he sent a demand to her to be more discreet "for the sake of the dynasty" and its safety, but she reacted with anger and refused to obey, and she had the support of her spouse, who shared her views. One display of defiance shown by Ingrid was her positioning of the flags of Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom in the window of the nursery at [[Amalienborg]], the royal residence in the centre of Copenhagen.{{Citation needed|date=July 2010}}

==Queen consort==
[[File:Kongeparret.jpg|thumb|right|King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid in the 1950s]]

Upon her husband's accession to the throne on 20 April 1947, she became the Queen of Denmark. As such, she reformed the traditions of Danish court life, abolished many old-fashioned customs at court and created a more relaxed atmosphere at official receptions. She was interested in gardening and art, and renovated the [[Gråsten Slot]] according to her own historical research about the palace's original appearance.{{Citation needed|date=July 2021}}

==Widowed queen==

[[File:Ingrid of Sweden, Queen Consort of Denmark, greeting the crew of Regina Mærsk in 1983 (7312758256).jpg|thumb|left|Ingrid at a ship christening in 1983]]
In 1972, King Frederik IX died, and Ingrid was widowed at the age of 61. Her elder daughter, aged 31, became the new queen, and Ingrid now assumed a position as family matriarch. That same year, after having sworn to respect the Danish constitution, she was appointed ''Rigsforstander'' (formal regent) and representative of the monarch whenever her daughter (and later her grandsons) were absent, a task she performed on many occasions. This was exceptional; previously, only the Crown Prince had been allowed to act as regent in the absence of the monarch.

She was patron of a long line of social organizations, positions which, one after another, she eventually left to Princess Benedikte as years passed: ''Røde Kors'', ''Ældre Sagen'', ''Red Barnet'', ''Løgum Klosters Refugium'', and ''Fonden for Træer og Miljø''. She also founded the organizations ''Kong Frederik og Dronning Ingrids fond til humanitære og kulturelle formål, Ingridfondet'' for South Jutland, ''Det kgl. Grønlandsfond'', and ''Dronning Ingrids Romerske Fond til støtte af kulturelle og videnskabelige formål''. She was described as dutiful, well-prepared and energetic.

==Death==
[[File:FrederikIX-Gravsten.jpg|thumb|The grave of King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid at Roskilde]]
Queen Ingrid died on 7 November 2000 at [[Fredensborg Palace]], [[Fredensborg]], with her three daughters—[[Queen Margrethe II]], [[Princess Benedikte]] and [[Queen Anne-Marie of Greece]]—and ten grandchildren at her bedside. Thousands gathered outside [[Amalienborg Palace]], her official residence, after her death was announced; flowers were left, candles were lit and hymns were sung in her honour.<ref>{{citation|publisher=BBC|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/1011774.stm|title=Danish Queen Mother dies|date=7 November 2000|access-date=22 August 2013|archive-date=3 February 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140203043043/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/1011774.stm|url-status=live}}</ref> Her funeral took place on 14 November 2000, and Ingrid was interred next to her husband, King [[Frederik IX]], outside [[Roskilde Cathedral]] near Copenhagen. The funeral was attended by many crowned heads of Europe and other heads of state, among them [[King Carl XVI Gustaf]] and [[Queen Silvia of Sweden]], [[Queen Sofia of Spain]], [[Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands]], [[King Harald V]] and [[Queen Sonja of Norway]], [[Albert II of Belgium|King Albert II]] and [[Queen Paola of Belgium]], [[Grand Duke Jean]] and [[Grand Duchess Joséphine Charlotte of Luxembourg]], [[Charles, Prince of Wales]], [[Prince Albert II of Monaco]], President of Iceland [[Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson]] and former President of Finland [[Mauno Koivisto]].<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.news24.com/news24/denmark-buries-beloved-queen-mother-ingrid-20001115 |access-date=8 March 2022 |date=15 November 2000 |title=Denmark buries beloved Queen Mother Ingrid |archive-date=22 September 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230922184315/https://www.news24.com/news24/denmark-buries-beloved-queen-mother-ingrid-20001115 |url-status=live }}</ref>
