I checked the official website and it says the pictures can be freely published for editorial but not commercial use. The YouTube video isn't promoting anything, so it should be fine. Mind you, I'm definitely not an expert on copyrights so I may be wrong.

I was a little surprised by the name. But when I read that it was a family name and a longtime favourite of Victoria I imagined a teenage Victoria browsing the family tree for a beautiful name. And now I like it. And what an elegant lady she was named after: Google Vertaling
Brio (brand of Estelle's pram) congatulate Victoria and Daniel on their site:

The wedding also inspired Ikea:

and I also remember they sold a royal version this shopping bag in blue with yellow crowns on it: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50212684/

We were encouraged to get fresh air everyday, especially in the winter! (not extreme weather).
When I see the two of them with eyes glued to Estelle in the carriage, it reminded me of our first, and how we almost felt we needed to always watch to make sure he was always breathing

It's a clip from Euronews' official YouTube channel. I assume television stations have shown the pictures during their broadcasts? I've seen them on BBC.

According to Aftonbladet, 'a member of the Royal family' bought back a diamond and sapphire studded tiara that once belonged to Countess Estelle Bernadotte. This tiara was inherited by Folke Bernadotte. I wonder of this has anything to do with Princess Estelle's birth?

Nice! But perhaps it is a birth present for Princess Estelle's mother. Now wouldn't that be a treat, a second tiara for Victoria and one that has family history and that no one else in the family has worn.
Hmm, I will live in hope.

It obviously was an IKEA Family Product - do you look round this shop as well? For I don't, normally. But then I'm only into IKEA for a Hot Dog, a bit of icecream and to buy crabs and Scandinavian sill.. The crab especially while they don't have much crabmeat in them, make for a wonderful base for sauces and soups... And IKEA is the only store where I can get these deep-frozen crabs regularily. My family just adores the "IKEA-soup" as they call it...

Picture of Countess Estelle's Parure
I hope it is true that Countess Estelle's tiara has been purchased by the Swedish royal family.

I just read (and I apologize if this is repeated information) that Estelle will be called Stella by her close family. Does anyone know if this is true?

I am not one of the one's who dislikes the name Estelle, but if she is called Stella I would love that; Stella is such a beautiful name but I don't think it is one that any royal families are partial to. Using it as a nickname would be great.

I am partial to the name Stella - it was my mother's name and is my middle name. And who can forget Marlon Brando's anguished screaming of it in 'A Streetcar Named Desire'?  It winds up becoming the diminutive 'Stel' - which has a vague aspiration when spoken so ironically sounds like E-Stel.

I have absolutely no problem with the Princess being called Stella after all it's my name and my second name is Marie so it fits in with Estelle and Mary.
