No. There was no requirement for Danish Jews to wear the Yellow Star and, as a result, King Christian X was never put in a position to wear one. However, he was reported by British Newspapers to have said that if the law were passed in Denmark, he would require all Danes, including himself, to wear one. His private diary confirms this view.
However, given King Christian X's consistent stance against the plight of Danish Jewry and his help in facilitating the escape of Denmark's Jews, there is more than enough to support the kind regard that both Jews and Danes have for his anti-Nazi activism without this false rumor.
