Carl Juel (22 June 1706 – 1 September 1767), was a Danish statesman and court official, councillor, and diocesan governor.
He was the son of statesman and nobleman Knud Juel (1665–1709) and Christine Elisabeth Knuth (1675–1738).
[2][4] Juel is known to have had at least two sons with Amalie, the eldest of which was born on 7 April 1765 and either named Niels or Frederik.
They then moved back to Denmark where he and his wife were powerful central figures at the Danish royal court and their careers there took place in parallel: in 1742–43 they served as chamberlain and chief lady-in-waiting to Princess Louise of Denmark, and in 1743 they were appointed to the same position for the new crown princess, Louise of Great Britain.
[2] In 1754, the Juel couple were ousted from the royal court, reportedly because they were considered a threat by the powerful Johann Hartwig Ernst von Bernstorff.
