Danish royal Count Felix of Montpezat's girlfriend, 23, says she's faced online 'hate' since it was revealed last year that she was dating Denmark's 'most eligible bachelor'

Count Felix of Montpezat's new girlfriend says she's been faced with severe online harassment from trolls since she began dating the Danish royal.  

Mie Sofia Elers, 23, a glamorous Chilean-Danish actress, first went public with Felix back in February, but says she's been facing online abuse for 'over a year'. 

Felix, the younger son of Prince Joachim from his first wife Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg, was stripped of his Prince title by his grandmother Queen Margrethe last year. 

Prior to finding love, he was known as Denmark's 'most eligible' bachelor, as his elder brother Count Nikolai is dating Benedikte Thoustrup.  

Mie Sofia has now told Danish paper BT that she has been facing 'ugly' and persistent abuse online, and has even filed a police report.

She told the news outlet: 'About a year ago, I started receiving hate messages on my social media accounts. I chose to ignore it until it escalated and these profiles started contacting my friends, family, and followers on social media.  

'Hate can be ignored to a certain extent, but harassment, photo manipulation, and spreading malicious lies are much more harmful.'

The abuse has continued despite Sofia setting her social media profiles to private - and now her friends and family are also being targeted. 

She added that fake profiles pretending to be her have used AI or Photoshop to manipulate her photos, such as showing her with men other than Felix, smoking and editing devil horns onto her head. 

The stunning actress reported it to the police and to Instagram last month - but says the social media giant is yet to take any action. 

She said: 'I understand that these kinds of incidents can happen when using social media, but that doesn't make the situation any less scary.'

FEMAIL has reached out to Instagram for comment.  

Mie Sofia was born in Pucón Chile, to a Chilean mother and Danish father, and studied at Copenhagen Film and Theatre School before moving to Madrid.

Felix, 21, is currently studying International Shipping and Trade education at Copenhagen Business School.

The couple are thought to have gone on holiday last week to Queen Margrethe's southern French wine castle Château de Cayx, joining his elder brother Count Nikolai and his girlfriend Benedikte Thoustrup. 

Like his heartthrob older brother Count Nikolai, Felix also models, fronting campaigns for Georg Jensen. 

In 2022, Queen Margrethe - who has now abdicated the throne in favour of her son King Frederick and his wife Queen Mary - shocked royal watchers as she sensationally announced Joachim's four children would lose their titles.

Nikolai, 24, Felix, 21, Henrik, 13, and Athena, 11, are now known as 'Count and Countess' and referred to as Their Excellencies, rather than Their Royal Highness. 

The Queen insisted the move would be 'good for them in their future' and allow the children - who have maintained their positions in the line of succession - to 'shape their own lives without being limited by the special considerations and duties' that a formal affiliation with the Danish Royal Family involves.

After the family were stripped of their titles in September 2022, Prince Joachim claimed that his mother's decision had 'harmed' his children.

Months later, the sixth-in-line to the throne admitted that 'communication was missing' within the Royal Family in the lead-up to the shock announcement.

Joachim told local news outlet B.T.: 'There is a lot to work on. Communication was what was missing. Now we have met and we are on the right track.'

He added that he had only been given five days' notice before the news was made public.

Following the Queen's announcement, Joachim spoke to Danish publication Ekstra Bladet outside the Danish Embassy in Paris, where he lived with his French-born wife Princess Marie and his two youngest children, and said his four children had been 'hurt' by their grandmother's decision.

'I was given five days' notice to tell them. In May, I was presented with a plan which, by and large, was that when the children each turned 25, it would happen. Now I had only five days to tell them. Athena turns 11 in January,' he clarified at the time.

Speaking to B.T., Joachim and his second wife Marie also admitted their relationship with Prince Frederik and Princess Mary is 'complicated'.

Meanwhile, Prince Joachim's ex-wife Alexandra said that her sons, Nikolai and Felix, had been left feeling 'ostracised' from the institution and the decision had come like a 'bolt out of the blue'.

The Royal Household released a further statement that the 'decision has been a long time coming'.

'We understand that there are many emotions at stake at the moment, but we hope that the Queen's wish to future-proof the Royal Household will be respected,' the statement added.
