Swedish Royal Family Welcomes New Prince

Another prince has been born! The Swedish royal family welcomes a new heir. According to Vogue, at exactly 8.28 p.m. late Tuesday, Princess Victoria of Sweden, 38, and her husband Prince Daniel, 42, welcome their second child to the world, Prince Oscar Carl Olof. Crown Princess Victoria gave birth to a healthy baby boy weighing exactly 3,655 grams and measuring 52 centimeters at the Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, Sweden.

Prince Daniel, the father of two responded to the media: "Everyone is obviously very happy. I haven't had time to feel yet how it feels to be a father of two, but it obviously feels good." He also recently joked in an interview with The Local, quoting that he is very proud and impressed with his wife because the labor happened very quickly and very well. "You women are a primal force... He looks like his mother, which is pleasing." The proud dad dished that he had been present during his wife's labor and had cut his son's umbilical cord by himself.

Meanwhile, the press asked Price Daniel about how his daughter Princess Estelle feels about her new baby brother. The Prince told the Swedish media that Estelle was really enthusiastic and happy to become a big sister. He also said that Princess Estelle had made some artwork for her brother but was a little disappointed that the baby had his eyes closed because she wanted to show all the drawings she had drawn for him. The Princess went to visit his brother last Thursday morning when he was sleeping when she arrived.

According to Daily Mail, The Royal Court's press office confirmed that both mother and baby are in good health and declared that the royal family had checked out of the hospital just shortly after 9 a.m. and went back to the Haga Palace. They also announced as a tradition there will be, a Te Deum celebration held at a church in the next few days. Their newborn will be third in line to the throne after his mother and sister.
