Princess Sofia: Fourth pregnancy was a surprise
Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip of Sweden are expecting their fourth child. Shortly before her 40th birthday, Sofia reveals how her three sons reacted to the somewhat unexpected news.
The fourth pregnancy was a surprise for Princess Sofia (39) and Prince Carl Philip (45) of Sweden. “Maybe it wasn’t planned, but now we are very, very excited. Especially the children,” Sofia said in an interview with Vogue Scandinavia, which was quoted by the Swedish magazine Svensk Damtidning.
She and her husband actually thought three children was a good number because they each have two siblings, Sofia said, according to the magazine. They were therefore very happy with their sons Alexander (8), Gabriel (7) and Julian (3). Now she is happy about the “bonus” that is on the way, said the princess.
The Swedish royal family’s next baby is due to be born in February. It will be the ninth grandchild of King Carl XVI. Gustaf (78) and Queen Silvia (80).
This is how Princess Sofia spends her 40th birthday
Princess Sofia celebrates her 40th birthday on December 6th. Given her pregnancy, the big party will have to wait a while, Sofia said in an excerpt from the “Vogue” interview, which can be seen on YouTube. She will probably only celebrate with her closest friends and family, she said.
