Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel did not attend the memorial service. Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia took the Crown Princess couple's seats at the memorial service. Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel could not attend as they both tested positive for COVID-19 earlier in the day.

  2. Bad news for Victoria and Daniel : Victoria is a healthy and strong person but Daniel is likely to be vulnerable because of his situation of immuno-depression due to his kidney transplant. I wish them the best.

      I think it is rather surprising that Daniel didn't take extra precautions given his health status. Carl Gustaf spoke out against the way the country has handled the pandemic during his Christmas broadcast. I am sure he and Silvia are dismayed that a second child and spouse have now been infected. I hope both the King and Queen, as well as Estelle and Oscar remain healthy. May they have a speedy recovery. ~d

  4. A nice and thoughtful gest on behalf of the Royal family of Sweden.
    It's not a fashion parade but the outfits are correct for the occasion.
    I like Queen Silvia's blouse which gives a discreete touch of colour to her outfit.
    Nice to see Princess Christina again. I think she'll soon be 80 years old.
    If my memory is right, she is the youngest of King Carl's three sisters.
    My thoughts are for Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel.
    I wish them both a speedy recovery to good health.

    3. Thank you SAF. Yes, he has four sisters
      The Princess Margaretha
      The Princess Birgitta
      The Princess Désirée
      The princess Christina
      I've read that he is the youngest of the the five children.
      It appears that they are all still alive.
      A bit like Prince Philippe of England.
      From a family of 5 children. He is the last in the family and has four elder sisters.
      Opps, sorry, lets get back to fashion before the moderator starts banging on our computer screens.
      And again, my thoughts are for a speedy return to good health for Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel.
