Princess Sofia of Sweden celebrates her 37th birthday with a new portrait
Happy Birthday, Princess Sofia! Prince Carl Philip Sweden’s wife turned 37 on Monday 6 December. In honor of the Royal Mother of Three’s birthday, the Royal Court released a new portrait of Sofia.
“Today, December 6, HRH Princess Sofia turns 37 years old”, the court wrote next to the close-up, which was taken by Anna-Lena Ahlström.
Sofia married into the Swedish royal family in 2015. “I do not think I knew the magic of love before I met Sofia”, said Carl Philip in an interview with the Swedish channel TV4 before his royal wedding (via HEY!). “But ever since I met her, I’ve seen how love can change a person.”
“I completely agree,” Sofia added. “Carl Philip is definitely the right person for me. He’s my best friend.”
The prince and princess welcomed their first child, Prince Alexander, 2016, followed by Prince Gabriel in 2017 and Prince Julian in 2021. Sofia shared photos of her sons and husband after Julian’s birth earlier this year: “Life has given me not just one but four beautiful princes❤.”
