Isn't this Princess Elisabeth the only one still considered a member of the royal family, besides Margrethe's immediate family?
KarlandZita:
Their respective parents, King Christian X and Prince Harald of Denmark being brothers, Knud and Caroline Mathilde were german cousins.

Yes, Elisabeth is the only one who is still a member of the RF and a dynast.
Count Ingolf is the highest ranking person in Denmark besides the RF.
He is also the only child of Prince Knud that has an income from the state, because of his former status as future king.
