I would have done it like this. The tiara will be i nherited by Queen Margrethe or the Family foundation and Queen Margrethe, Queen Anne-Marie and Princess Benedikte have live-long right to use it and Ingrid's granddaughters can use on their Wedding Days. I hope Queen Margrethe will not divide her Jewels among her sons. it would be fair but the historic Jewels in the Main-branch will become lesser with each generation.
