This is the last photo I got of the prince, If I find some new I post them right away. And if you have some photos of the Prince please post them.
This is one of the last group-photos of the Haga-family in 1946.
From left: Princess Sibylla holding the couples little new born Prince Carl Gustaf (XVI), Princess Birgitta, Princess Christina, Princess Désirée, Princess Margareta and Prince Gustaf Adolf. A couple of months later the Prince died.
