The stork has been very busy on the Nordic side of the world lately.
Princess Madeleine of Sweden has announced that she is pregnant.
The royal mum, who is married to Chris O’Neill , shared the exciting news on her official Facebook page, penning, “Chris and I are thrilled to announce that I am expecting.”
“We look forward to four becoming five!”
The couple already share Princess Leonore and Prince Nicolas.
Madeleine’s banker husband recently alluded to their family expanding in an interview with Swedish newspaper, Expressen.
“We want to have more children. Both of us want a big family,” he said.
“One or two more in future, absolutely!”
The couple are already the proud parents to their two kids, Princess Leonore, three, and two-year-old Prince Nicolas.
The royals shared that they take parenting as their main priority, giving their children “100 percent of our attention.”
The Swedish royal met her husband in the Big Apple before marrying in 2013.
The 35-year-old Princess opened up to People about her hands-on approach to motherhood.
Speaking of her morning routine with her children, she mused,“It’s pretty much like a normal mum.”
“They wake me up and we fix breakfast together and the breakfast flies all over the place!” She said.
“And then we go out to the park and we swing, we try to do a lot of activities because my little Leonore, she has lots of energy, so we have to keep her stimulated and busy.”
We can imagine sweet Leonore keeping her parents on their toes.
The royal, who is sixth in line to the Swedish throne, also shared what her own upbringing was like.
“I think because my mum and father, of course, were so devoted to their work and as king and queen, they have lots of obligations, so they were away quite a bit when we were small,” she explained.
“But when they were home, they were very present and I feel that I want to give my children as much as I can,” she said.
It’s baby fever for the Swedes with Madeleine’s little brother Prince Carl Philip set to become a father for the second time any day now.
The royal children’s book author lives with her family between New York, London and Sweden.
The 35-year-old, who married her American beau in a lavish wedding in Stockholm in June 2013, recently announced that her eldest Princess Leonore will be attending preschool in Sweden.
“HRH Princess Madeleine and her family permanently reside in London. However, they regularly spend longer periods in Sweden,” the palace shared in a statement.
“The Princess feels that her children should have a strong connection with Sweden. She wants them to feel at home here just as she does.”
Madeleine is princess perfection.
It certainly is going to be a full house for the Swedish Royal Family.
Along with Madeleine’s impending arrival, her little brother,Prince Carl Philip, and his wife, Princess Sofia, are about welcome their second child any day now.
Meanwhile Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel, who will one day be King and Queen, are the proud parents to Princess Estelle, five, and one-year-old son Prince Oscar.
The Swedish Royal’s next generation just keeps getting bigger and bigger – congratulations again!
