New mum Princess Beatrice has rubbed shoulders with one of the best-looking royal couples in the world while in Sweden for an event close to her heart.

The 33-year-old royal Jetted to Sweden with husband Edoardo Mapelli-Mozzi to attend a world first charity event for people with dyslexia, a condition both royals live with.

They joined Sweden’s Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia, hosts of the World Dyslexia Assembly, who have been recognised around the world as one of the most attractive modern royal couples.

The glamorous pair looked as stunning as ever as they met with Beatrice and Edoardo and posed for photos together at the Swedish palace, sharing one to their official Instagram profile.

“The World Dyslexia Assembly will soon begin here at the Royal Palace. @prinsparetstiftelse in partnership with @madebydyslexia invites actors from all over society to work for a more inclusive society for dyslexics,” read the caption, originally in Swedish.

“A special thank you to Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice, a longtime activist for dyslexic minds, and to her husband Edoardo for joining us.”

As an ambassador for Made By Dyslexia, the charity behind the world first assembly, Beatrice was front and centre as the event kicked off on Wednesday.

Beatrice shared her own experiences with the learning disability.

She spoke about her own experiences with the learning disorder, which causes difficulty reading, after being diagnosed at age seven.

“It’s no secret that I struggled with my dyslexia as a child and often even wished it away,” the Princess of York confessed.

“But now I see it as a tremendous gift, and I want every dyslexic child to know that they too can tap into their dyslexic strengths.”

Sweden’s Prince Carl Philip, who is also dyslexic, shared similar experiences with the crowd.

“Through the Prince Couple’s Foundation, Princess Sofia and I wish to do our part to contribute to an inclusive society; a society that enables each individual to reach their full potential,” he said.

“Our wish is that the Assembly contributes to supporting every child and youth in being themselves.”

He and Sofia have three children, Prince Alexander, six, Prince Gabriel, four, and Prince Julian, one, all of whom could potentially inherit the condition from their father.

Likewise, Princess Beatrice’s young daughter Sienna Elizabeth, seven months, may one day be diagnosed with dyslexia like both of her parents.

Beatrice and Edoardo have considered the possibility, the princess previously telling Hello! Magazine: “My husband’s also dyslexic so we’ll see whether we’re having this conversation in a couple of months’ time with a new baby in the house, but I really see it as a gift.

“And I think life is a little bit about the moments that make you; it’s the challenges that make you.”

Beatrice is also stepmother to Edoardo’s son from a previous relationship, Christopher ‘Wolfie’.
