Count of Monpezat

Count of Monpezat (Greve af Monpezat in Danish) is a Danish title of nobility granted on 30 April 2008 by the Queen of Denmark to her two sons and their legitimate patrilineal descendants of both sexes.

A count and his wife bear the title greve and grevinde, respectively. Their children are titled greve (sons) and komtesse (daughters). A woman cannot pass the title to her husband or elevate her husband's status.

Consequences
