Her son did not success to the Danish throne because that's not how the Danish success law worked, not (primarily at least) because of her questionable paternity. As I understand it, Denmark had semi-Salic succession among the descendants of Frederick III. That means you go to the next male line heir as long as there is one, and then if there aren't any you go to the nearest female line relation of the last king. So when Frederick VI dies, it passes to his cousin, Christian VIII as the male line heir, rather than to his sister. Christian VIII is succeeded by his son Frederick VII, and then when he dies we look to the closest relations of Frederick VII. So we go to his father's sister, Princess Charlotte, and her descendants. After Charlotte and her son and eldest surviving daughter renounced their claims, that left her third daughter, Princess Louise as heiress. In order to (attempt to) keep the Duchies with Denmark, Louise renounced in favor of her husband, Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, who was a distant descendant of the royal house in the male line (but whose claim to the Danish throne came from his wife). john k (talk) 12:31, 17 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
