I had missed her at recent Royal events and it seems her health was why she could not attend.
She was last seen in public at Prince Henrik's funeral in February. Here is a picture from the Belgian state visit to Denmark in March 2017, which was the last time she attended a state banquet.
Such a wonderful woman and a great example for young Royals how to be both a Royal and modern.
From the obituary at kongehuset.dk:
As a member of the royal family, Princess Elisabeth through her life and work demonstrated exceptional loyalty to her lineage and the Royal Danish House. As a patron, Her Highness handled official duties for Denmark in parallel to her 45-year civil service career in the ministry of foreign affairs. There, Princess Elisabeth was employed as a head of section, and the Princess was posted abroad several times through the years. The first time was at the Danish embassy in Washington from 1973 to 1976 and again from 1981 to 1985, and the most recent was at the Danish UN Mission in Geneva from 1989 to 1993.
