In Luxembourg, Grand Duke Henri has announced his abdication, scheduled for October 3, 2025. After 24 years as sovereign, he will step down, with his son, Prince Guillaume, set to succeed him. This rare move mirrors Queen Margrethe of Denmark's earlier abdication.
Henri's trust in Guillaume and daughter-in-law, Princess Stephanie, is strong, hoping they bring wellbeing to the nation. A ceremony will mark the transition, followed by celebrations throughout Luxembourg. This event marks the beginning of a new chapter in Luxembourg's royal history.
