Royal love

A breath of fresh air for Sweden's monarchy

Love or reason of state - this question puts the Swedish monarchy to the test time and again.
Prince Carl Philip has just taken ex-model Sofia Hellqvist as his wife.
Sofia was controversial in Sweden for a long time because of her past, but Carl Philip stood by her.

Sweden's royals and their civil spouses - the next chapter in a royal success story.
King Carl Gustaf himself paved the way when he took the German Olympic hostess Silvia Sommerlath as his wife in 1976.
Crown Princess Victoria and Princess Madeleine's husbands, who were not in keeping with their status, have also become an integral part of the royal family.
Carl Philip has now also made his heart's desire a reality and found support from his family of all people.
His bride Sofia became a project on which the royal family and royal house worked together to prepare the young woman for being a princess and win the public's approval.
