Svensk Damtidning tells that Oscar and Emma Magnuson and their sons Henri and Albert moved two weeks ago to "the Queen's Pavilion" in Djurgården. It is built in 1820 and has ten rooms. Both queen Desideria and queen Sofia have used it. It is in Djurgården very close to Rosendal Palace. Oscar and Emma lived previously at court's house in Slottsbacken.
Svensk Damtidning writes that Carl Philip and Sofia got new neighbours, but Oscar and Emma live now about one kilometer away from Villa Solbacken. Oscar and Emma live now very close to Gustaf and Vicky Magnuson, less than 500 meters between their houses.
The house, like many houses in Djurgården, is managed by the Royal Djurgården Administration and it is the king who with his right of disposition decides who can move in.

:previous: Thank you for sharing that, LadyFinn. Djurgården looks like a beautiful place to live indeed, and it's nice to hear that they are living near to Sofia and Carl Philip. Alexander and his brother Gabriel in the near future too will have Henri and Albert as more little friends to play with!
 
Margareta Thorgren, the director of the press department, told to the media:
- Princess Christina wants to greet people by telling she is feeling well. The treatments that the princess has undergone have gone well and as planned. She is feeling well considering the circumstances.
People in the presence of Princess Christina testify that today she is much happier and sees a bright future ahead of her.
She still undergoes checks in connection with treatment - but on the whole her health condition is significantly better.

Princess Birgitta has given an interview to Svensk Damtidning and in it she speaks also about princess Christina. Christina feels better and has only one year left of treatment. She's tough!, says Birgitta with admiration in her voice.
Sisters Birgitta and Christina were last seen together with the other siblings at Sollidens Palace in Öland in July in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of Crown Princess Victoria.
And when they don't meet and hang out together, they keep in touch by phone, says Birgitta.
- I try to show that I exist and send over some thoughts from time to time. You can not do more.

Vicky Andrén Magnuson has posted for some time photos of her filming something in Skansen.
Now there are a lot of photos at Vicky's Instagram, and others. Obviously she is playing a "skogsrå" (forest spirit), hulder/huldra, who is a seductive forest creature found in Scandinavian folklore, for program "Folktro" in SVT.
"vickyandren you are an incredible actress, but I rather see you as a huldra than as a witch who scares the life out of me in the barn..."

Possibly Vicky has found already a new career, when her modelling jobs are getting fewer when she gets older.

Princess Christina delivers on 27th January, the Holocaust Memorial Day, the scholarship from the Micael Bindefeld Foundation in Memory of the Holocaust.
- It is an important scholarship that has been delivered previously by the Crown Princess, Prince Daniel and the Queen. This year, it is Princess Christina who delivers the scholarship, said Margareta Thorgren.
This has to mean that Princess Christina is significantly better after her illness?
- Absolutely. The princess is feeling better.
Every year there has been a member of royal family who handed over the scholarship. This year, it is Princess Christina.
The scholarship is SEK 300,000 and is distributed annually on the memorial day of the Holocaust to people or groups who "have a desire to communicate, provide information, with photos or otherwise convey knowledge to a broad Swedish audience with stories about the Holocaust".

Princess Christina presents today the scholarship from the Micael Bindefeld Foundation in Memory of the Holocaust at the Royal Dramatic Theatre.
Micael Bindefeld, well-known and respected organizer of professional events, founded in 2014 his Foundation in order to support those who have a desire to communicate, provide information on, photo insert, or otherwise disseminate knowledge to a wide Swedish audience with stories of the Holocaust. Bindefeld donated five million SEK to the foundation. Many of Bindefeld’s relatives were executed at Holocaust. Daniel delivered the first scholarships in 2015, Victoria in 2016 and queen Silvia in 2017.

This year's scholarship is delivered to fashion photographer Mikael Jansson. Foundation's motivation:
The 2018 scholarship is awarded to photographer Mikael Jansson, in support of his extensive portrait series "Witnesses" of survivors from the Holocaust. By depicting the last-generation survivors, Jansson contributes to an invaluable documentation whose mere existence becomes a living proof that makes it impossible for future generations to deny or diminish the Holocaust.
Mikael Jansson is one of the world's top elites of his profession and has for several decades portrayed artists, actors and models to the world's most prestigious magazines. Now he has taken on a completely different project.
During countless journeys through Sweden, Mikael Jansson has met, portrayed and collected testimonies from up to 100 survivors from the Holocaust. In black and white images, the last generation, who experienced the Holocaust, emerges as living witnesses to Nazi's extinction policy. Some of them have told their story earlier. Some of them have not even told their own children. Until now.
With the support of the Micael Bindefeld Foundation, Jansson is given the opportunity to carry out this important project.
- To accomplish this project, meet all these people and hear their stories has touched me much stronger than I could ever imagine. It is so extremely important that what has happened should not be forgotten. Therefore, it feels great to receive this generous scholarship so that I can document this for all future, through pictures as well as movies, says Mikael Jansson.
The project will be seen in an exhibition "Witnesses", displayed at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern from October 2018.
- Mikael has a great way to approach the people he is working with. He gives enormous confidence and then manages that trust. The result of his work therefore always brings images with an unusual deep and strong story. The foundation's board has been in agreement with the importance and value of financing this unique project so that the world can learn from what has happened, said Micael Bindefeld, chairman and initiator of the Foundation.
Jansson's project "Witnesses" receives 400,000 SEK.

Expressen writes about princess Christina delivering the scholarship from Micael Bindefeld Foundation in Memory of the Holocaust.
- I think it's very fine by Micael Bindefeld to have such a foundation and to award scholarship to those who want to and can remind about the Holocaust of different ways. Therefore, it is obvious to me to stand up, says Princess Christina, who awarded the scholarship at a ceremony at Dramaten.
Since 1999, January 27 is a memorial day in Sweden. In 2005, the UN declared the day as an International Memorial Day of the Victims of Holocaust. It was January 27, 1945, that the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau was freed.
- We must never forget. As simple as that. And we have it easy to forget, but it's all the more important that there are those who still can, want and have strength to tell, said Princess Christina.
Micael Bindefeld Foundation annually donates a scholarship to projects that convey stories about the Holocaust. The prize money is SEK 400,000.
- Bindefeld has created a fine and important opportunity for reminder of the Holocaust, and for Expressen - founded in the fight against Nazism - it is especially important to be here and mark against anti-Semitism, says Thomas Mattsson, chief executive editor of Expressen.

Svensk Damtidning had an article about the Magnuson brothers and mostly of their wives (and Maline Sommerlath). The article tells that Frida Magnuson, who worked previously as a purchaser at H&M, works now as interior designer at company Aschberg Magnuson. Emma Magnuson has worked some years as marketing director at Google.

Is she really in a remission? Good!
 
Princess Christina has today lost a friend. Kjerstin Dellert, Opera singer and former director of Confidencen Ulriksdal Palace Theatre passed away today at the age of 92 years.
In the fall 1976, Kjerstin Dellert entered the ruins of Palace Theatre Confidencen together with Princess Christina, and then began the construction work that became Kjerstin's life work.
Princess Christina is the chairwoman of the Board of Foundation Ulriksdal Palace Theatre Confidencen.

Princess Christina and her husband Tord Magnuson received the message of Kjerstin Dellert's death during the day.
- I was told a few hours ago, said the princess, continuing:
- An old person who has lived a long, happy and incredibly rich life dies. What should I say? That's life.
What has Kjerstin Dellert meant for the princess personally?
- For both my husband and me, she has meant very much. We have worked together with Confidencen, which I still do. It is certainly the enormous task in which she has been most important to us.

- Kjerstin was a wonderful person. We will remember her joy, radiance and creativity. She has meant a lot to many, including us. It is sad, but life has unfortunately always an end, says Tord Magnuson to Svensk Damtidning.
