King Frederik and Queen Mary engaged in a rare PDA as the Danish royals enjoyed a romantic stroll along Oslo's harbour front on the final day of their state visit to Norway.
The engagement was a focus on the architecture where Frederik, 55, and Mary, 52, viewed a new sustainable urban development, but they exchanged loving looks and plenty of smiles as they walked along the waterfront.
The couple cut a stylish figure with Mary in an effortlessly chic ensemble comprising of a crisp white shirt, a navy midi skirt, a straw hat and Chanel pumps, while Frederik opted for a tan jacket and blue trousers.
Their outing came the day after they celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary on 14 May, which coincided with a gala dinner at the Royal Palace in Oslo.
Take a look at the sweetest photos from one of their final engagements...

At the gala dinner at the Royal Palace in Oslo, King Harald V of Norway raised a toast to Frederik and Mary's milestone anniversary, saying: "Dear Mary, you took on a big task when you went and fell in love with this sporty Dane. You gave up a lot that was safe and familiar. You made Denmark and the Danes your own heartland and heartland. I know that you have also been a great support for our beloved Queen Margrethe.
"Just today the two of you have been married for 20 years - surely that deserves a round of applause? We think it's very nice that you chose to celebrate your wedding anniversary here with us tonight!"
