Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has proclaimed Frederik the new King of Denmark.
Ms Frederiksen proclaimed the King three times from the balacony at Christiansborg Palace.
It comes after Queen Margarethe abdicated the throne on New Year’s Eve.
On the first day of their reign, Mary and Frederik and the entire royal family will participate in the Danish Parliament’s formal celebration of the succession of the throne.
The new King and Queen will also be marked spiritually in a celebratory church service at Aarhus Cathedral on Sunday.
