Mary accompanied Frederik to the 10 kilometer men's ski biathlon where Fred, as an IOC member, got to hand out the medals.

 

On a TV interview for Go'Morgen Danmark Frederik and Mary were asked whether there was any rivalry between them in regards to the Danish and Australian contestants. Frederik admitted that there was some rivalry and pointed out that the Austrailian contestant came in right after the Danish. Mary on the other hand said that there was no rivalry at all between them. They were there to cheer the Danish contestant - Trying to be more professional and diplomatic in her role.
