Princess Madeleine of Sweden posted three new photographs to her Facebook page, with the caption, “My sister and I are blessed as mothers with two sweet little girls who adore each other!” The release coincides with the celebration of the Swedish Mother’s Day today.
Two of the photos shown are of her daughter, Princess Leonore with Princess Estelle, the daughter of Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel. In the pictures, the two Princesses are sitting together in a chair laughing and hugging. The royal cousins look adorable together and are clearly enjoying spending time with one another.
The third photo is of a smiling Madeleine holding her daughter. These were taken after the christening of Estelle’s little brother, Prince Oscar, Duke of Skåne on 27 May in the Royal Chapel of Stockholm Palace, where Madeleine was named one of Oscar’s five godparents.
His other godparents are Crown Prince Frederick of Denmark, Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway, Hans Astrom and Oscar Magnuson. The photos were taken by Anna-Lena Ahlström in the Royal Palace.
