While the world is focusing on the UK with the bombshell interview the Sussexes gave to Oprah, over in Sweden they are celebrating the third birthday of their youngest royal.

Princess Adrienne of Sweden, Duchess of Blekinge, turns three-years-old today and will mark the day privately with her family at their Florida home.

Princess Madeleine shared a new photo of her daughter on her social media today to celebrate the day. The Princess wrote: “Happy 3rd Birthday to our sweet little charmer! We love you Adrienne! ?”

Adrienne is the youngest of Princess Madeleine and Chris O’Neill’s three children. Her older siblings are Princess Leonore, 7, and Prince Nicolas, 5. At the moment, she is the youngest grandchild of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia.

Adrienne is tenth in line to the Swedish throne, but she will move down to 11th place once her cousin – the third child of her uncle and aunt Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia – is born in the next few weeks.

She held the style of Royal Highness until October of 2019 when her grandfather removed the Royal Highness status and position in the Royal House from his grandchildren through his son, Prince Carl Philip and his wife, Princess Sofia, as well as the children of Princess Madeleine and her husband, Chris.

Princess Adrienne’s cousins, Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar, retain their place in the Royal House and status as Royal Highnesses as they are the children of Crown Princess Victoria – the future queen.
