Swedish Royals Welcome New Princess Ines Marie Lilian Silvia

Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip of Sweden welcomed their fourth child, a daughter named Ines Marie Lilian Silvia, on February 7, 2025. The newborn, who will be known as Princess Ines, is the couple's first girl and weighs 8 pounds. Her name honors royal traditions, including a tribute to her grandmother, Queen Silvia. While Princess Ines is eighth in line to the throne, she will not have the title of Royal Highness due to changes made by King Carl XVI Gustaf in 2019, which streamlined the royal family's titles. The royal family shared a photo of the newborn on Instagram, captivating admirers worldwide. The joyful event marked a significant moment for the Swedish monarchy, bringing the total number of King Carl and Queen Silvia's grandchildren to nine.
