Denmark's palace said Prince Henrik, the French-born husband of Danish monarch Queen Margrethe, has died. He was 83. A statement on the royal house's website said Henrik died late Tuesday in his sleep at the palace and that the queen was at his side. Henrik was made prince consort when Margrethe acceded to the throne in 1972. The jovial prince was known for being frank and forthright. (Liselotte Sabroe/Ritzau Scanpix via AP)
