In news that might make you feel a touch older, brand new photos of the Swedish royal children have surfaced, and it would be safe to say they’re growing up way too quickly.
The Swedish royal family shared two brand new stunning family snaps of Crown Princess Victoria and Crown Prince Daniel, along with their two children, Princess Estelle, seven, and Prince Oscar, three.
The images were released just ahead of the young Princess’s eighth birthday, which falls on February 23.

The young Princess is seen smiling into the camera while wearing a navy blue bow with a matching dress.
Her hair is particularly long now, and it’s clear she’s growing up to be just as striking as her mum!

However, it appears the young royal is making a full recovery – we hope it’s speedy!
Princess Estelle, pictured with her mum Crown Princess Victoria in 2016, is now almost eight-years-old.

This will promote and help to set up more cultural-based activities in the Scandinavian country.
The Swedish royals are known for keeping things relatively low-key, but they continue to put their status to good use, with various initiatives to elevate their country on the world stage.
We can’t wait to see what more there is to come!
