But seriously, the swedish royals are the most open ones to the press by far! In my country (Netherlands) more then one royalty journalist showed his amazement that the swedish royals actualy talked to the press etc. as here the royals most of the time do NOT talk to any journalist at all. You in Sweden are so spoiled already (open and very attractive royals), so let Carl-Philip enjoy the VIP lounge.
No thatīs not what I meant. But in this particluar case, he was there as prince of Sweden (dont think a "normal" 25 year old with no skills would have been invited to join a race like this) and because of that I think he should have been "grateful". Ah, I canīt find the right words , but do you know what I mean?

I dont think its to much to ask for at all. Ofcourse he has the right to a private life and thats none of our buisness to "get involved in" but this isnīt what I would call a private event.
Its kind of an "both keep the cake and eat it", as we say in Sweden, situation
