Expressen's article about the king and queen's holiday

The king and Silvia's luxury holiday in France
King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia have holidays on the French Riviera - and enjoy on the motor boat "Polaris" and in the luxury villa Villa Mirage.
The rest of the royal family is, however, located elsewhere.
- The children of the royal couple are all adults and have their own families. However, the entire royal family is gathered and together on Öland, Solliden most of July, says Margareta Thorgren.

Although the royal family is on holiday, no one will attend at this evening's FIFA Women's World Cup match Sweden-The Netherlands
This time, however, no one in the royal family has the opportunity to cheer on blue-yellow in place.
But they still follow how it goes for the team.
- It is a great sporting event and exciting because the ladies have now gone to the semifinals, which means that the royal family follows this with interest. Unfortunately, they don't have the opportunity to attend this match, but there is a lot of interest and they are cheering on Sweden, says Margareta Thorgren.

The Crown Princess family has been in Fullerö / Storvreta (Uppsala) in the last week. They were seen at a local cafe.
 
The Crown Princess family has been in Fullerö / Storvreta (Uppsala) in the last week. They were seen at a local cafe.

Probably on their way from/to their other summer house in Acktjära, the family usually spends some days there with Daniel's parents after Midsummer.

Svensk Damtidning:
Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel have left the big city for their summer on Öland.
But instead of taking the flight from Bromma airport as usual, our environmentally conscious crown princess chose to go with a boat to Öland.
- They have taken the sea route to Öland this time, says Margareta Thorgren.
That the trip would not be too long for the children, Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar, Prince Daniel and Crown Princess Victoria chose to split the trip for several days.
On the way down, the family therefore stopped at the ABBA profile Björn Ulvaeus' floating hotel, Slottsholmen in Västervik.
Here they could put the boat right by the hotel, eat well and sleep out in comfortable beds before moving on to Öland.
Now the Crown Princess family has landed at home in their own summer paradise on Öland, Villa Skönviken, a stone's throw from the Solliden Palace. Crown Princess Victoria has spent every summer in her life at Solliden and she wants to give her children the same lovely upbringing.

Svensk Damtidning has contacted the owner of Gryts Varv Hotell about the crown princess family's visit.

Damtidning writes that as the previously told, Victoria and family stayed the night at Slottsholmen Hotell in Västervik, but before they arrived at the hotel they probably became far too hungry that it simply could not wait until Västervik to have dinner.
So the family went ashore to Gryts Varv Hotel and conference in Gryt which is right by the sea and ate a good dinner. They stayed from the afternoon until a bit into the evening and were in a very good mood, says Krister Eriksson who owns Gryts Varv Hotel and conference.
- They were really nice and had a cozy afternoon and evening with us, he says.

Victoriadagarna -magazine tells that Daniel plays also this year at Victoriagolfen on Saturday 13th July, with his friends Peter Forsberg and Håkan Lundstedt. The competition is for teams with four members, we will see on Saturday who is the fourth member of their team.

King Carl Gustaf and queen Silvia were seen at the luxury yacht in St. Tropez with their friends baron Per Taube, his wife baroness Åsa Taube, their daughter Linnea and her fiancé Leonard Johansson, stepson of the king's friend count Carl Adam "Noppe" Lewenhaupt.

Two years has passed since the king's friend and entrepreneur Carl Adam "Noppe" Lewenhaupt passed away.
For Noppe's stepson, Leonard Johansson, 31, much has happened. In January this year, he got engaged with his love Linnea Taube, 28, daughter of the billionaire couple, Per and Åsa Taube.
Despite Noppe's death, Leonard still has a close relationship with the step-father's former friend, King Carl Gustaf.
- After Noppe's death, my mother and I have had fantastic support from old friends including the royal family. It has meant a lot to us, says Leornad Johansson.
The friendship was clearly shown when they spent a wonderful holiday in St Tropez together with Queen Silvia, Linnea and her parents
The group rented a luxury motor yacht and was seen swimming and talking together in the sunshine. The Yacht Svea is 34.1 meters long and has eight beds.
For the royal couple there was an outing out of the ordinary. Otherwise they often spend their time in France at their own summer house.
- When it comes to the French Riviera, the king and the queen have a summer house there. They visit there usually every summer, says Margareta Thorgren.
At the same time, it is now time for the royals to return to Sweden.
- The whole royal family will spend much of July on Öland, and what I can see the king and queen have an official commitment there already on Thursday, says Margareta Thorgren.
Kungens band till styvsonen Leonard – efter Noppes bortgång Expressen

Princess Estelle went with her parents, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel, at a concert at Ullevi in ​​Gothenburg.
Metallica belongs to her favorite bands.
Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel and Princess Estelle are on site at Ullevi when the thrash metal band Metallica is on stage on Tuesday evening.
The royal family appeared outside the arena as they were entering.
- Yes, they are at the concert. It has not been planned for a long time, but is a relatively unplanned concert visit, says Margareta Thorgren.
She notes that it is an interest from Princess Estelle that the family is in place in Gothenburg.
- She thinks this music group is good. Therefore, they are there. She has also previously shown interest in Metallica, says Margareta Thorgren.
Will Princess Estelle meet the band members during the concert?
- There is no information I have. But there is a possibility that this happens. She has actually met them before.
According to Margareta Thorgren, there are no more planned activities for Princess Estelle and her parents in Gothenburg.
- This is the concert. Then they return to Öland. For the weekend, Victoria's birthday and Victoria Day are on Öland, she says and adds:
- This is an unofficial visit. The family thinks it is fun to visit different concerts during holidays.

Oscar is also in Gothenburg. The family listens the concert at a box because of Estelle's young age. Thorgren was asked if Estelle has some favourite song among Metallica's music. Thorgren said that she surely has but she doesn't know it.

GP (newspaper in Gothenburg) has today contacted the court/Margareta Thorgren with the question: what did Estelle and her parents really think about yesterday's gig?
So a day after: what did the Crown Princess couple, and especially Estelle, think of yesterday's Metallica gig?
- They thought the concert was good, and that it was a fun evening. They have been on this type of concerts several times before.
Who is the biggest Metallica fan of Victoria, Daniel and Estelle?
- Princess Estelle, I guess I think.
What are you basing on that assumption?
- She likes that music, and is curious about the group.
How long will the Crown Princess couple, and little Estelle, stay in Gothenburg?
- This was a short, private visit. They go to Öland today to prepare for the Victoria Day, Margareta Thorgren concludes.
Estelle got to come in despite age limit
According to the law Princess Estelle would not have been allowed to attend at Metallica's concert. The age limit for Live Nations concerts is 13 years, but the small heir to the throne is only 7 years old.
Live Nation's Alexander Kihlström comments on the matter as follows:
- We don't comment on individual visitors, but in this case it is a child who has been in a controlled environment where the volume level falls below the recommendation regarding volume levels from the Public Health Agency. This is a place at Ullevi that is not available for sale at events. We cannot comment on the matter further.
Så tyckte prinsessan Estelle om Metallica _ Göteborgs-Posten - Kultur

- As the Crown Princess couple and Princess Estelle were in a box, according to the rules it was correct. That was why they sat in a box, that they would follow the safety rules as she has a lower age. It was an important part of the planning so that Estelle could follow along with the restrictions and the age limit, says Margareta Thorngren.

And we could see that Estelle had her ear muffs with her and on her at the concert.

Prince Daniel is also fond of Metallica. He has seen them live several times, it has been told to Svensk Damtidning. Also last year, when Metallica was awarded the Polar Music Prize.
And to Prince Daniel's great happiness, the rock band tore off one of his favorite songs at Ullevi. Which? Yes, the slightly unpopular "Staten & Kapitalet", a song that was originally made by the Blå Tåget but became a super-success when Ebba Grön interpreted the song in the 1980s. Daniel is an Ebba Grön fan.

Metallica donates 300,000 to the City Mission
In conjunction with yesterday's gig at Ullevi, Metallica chose to donate SEK 300,000 to the Göteborgs Stadsmission (Gothenburg City Mission).
- I think this is quite unique. We have had collaborations with artists before, but this scope and from an international perspective is unique, says Åsa Vilu from the Gothenburg City Mission.

Goodness knows what possessed Victoria and Daniel to bring a 7 year old to a heavy metal concert?
 
Goodness knows what possessed Victoria and Daniel to bring a 7 year old to a heavy metal concert?

Estelle probably made them bring her :) She seems to like them. IIRC, she was at another Metallica concert last year. Or perhaps it was Kiss? Either way, she seems to like metal.

It was a Kiss concert. Apparently, at least according to the head of the Royal Press Office, Margaretha Thorgren, Metallica is one of Estelle's favourite bands. It's definitely different from liking Dolly Style like all other Swedish kids at the moment.
 
Daniel played today at Victoriagolfen at Ekerum Resort Öland's golf course. At a team there were four members, Daniel played at Team Öland with his friends Peter "Foppa" Forsberg (double olympic and world champion and Stanley Cup winner in icehockey) and Håkan Lundstedt (ceo of Synsam), and the fourth member of the team was Magnus Lagerlöf, the ceo of Ekerum Resort Öland. Daniel played for the first time at Victoriagolfen in 2012 and has played every year after that.
- It went okay, said Daniel to the reporter after the over four hours competition.
Only okay?
- Yes, it went quite well, said Daniel.
Quite well?
- Yes, we will see, I don't know how the others have played, said Daniel.

ROYAL: Daniel beim jährlichen Victoriagolf auf Öland

Svensk Damtidning's reporter Helena Wiklund got an interview from Daniel and got even to a photo with him.
What a wonderful tradition it is, Prince Daniel's participation at Victoriagolfen. Svensk Damtidning was on site and learned more about tomorrow's celebration of Crown Princess Victoria!
- Hey what's up? says Prince Daniel, and reaches the right hand.
- A little less hardship today, right? he jokes and bursts into a friendly laugh.
We are at Ekerum Golf Club just outside Borgholm on Öland, a few kilometers from the royal family's glittering summer palace. Prince Daniel has just hit the last putt on hole number 16, here on the track Långe Erik.
One of the holes Prince Daniel played was sponsored by Svensk Damtidning, just like last year!
Tomorrow his Victoria turns 42 years and so before that it is as usual, time for the traditional Victoriagolfen, Prince Daniel goes the same ball as his good friend Peter "Foppa" Forsberg and Synsam's CEO Håkan Lundstedt and Magnus Lagerlöf.
Svensk Damtidning's Helena Wiklund got to talk with the prince:
You were out early this morning?
- Well, not so early, we started at nine.
Has it gone well?
- Yes pretty good! Not so great, but pretty good!
- This is the second round for the season, so it has become very little golf this summer. But it might be more now.
Do you bring the family out on the golf course?
- Yes, we have done a little bit, we have. But since I haven't played so much, no one else has done it either.
No, it's clear. And tomorrow is the big day. Are you charged?
- I'm really charged! I think it will be so fun! It is a cozy tradition throughout this stay on Öland, and so wonderful with the celebrations and all the people who come to Solliden. It's always a very nice day.
This is what your wife has told, that you holler in the car the whole family, as soon as you come up on the Öland bridge, it sounds so fun I think.
Prince Daniel laughs.
- Haha, yes there are usually various expressions of joy!
And how will the celebration be tomorrow?
- It will be cake and song ...
And gifts?
- Yes, wrapped gifts too. It's done!
Have you prepared something special?
- I have, says Prince Daniel and smiles shrewdly. But not a chance he reveals what ...

The crown princess family have been seen at a pizzeria in Borgholm

We reveal! Victoria and Daniel's cozy evening with the kids - at the pizzeria!
An ordinary day in Borgholm. With an unusual family at the restaurant table!
Our eyewitness tells that the Crown Princess and Prince Daniel csat at the pizzeria Pappa Blå together with Prince Oscar and Princess Estelle. A royal pizza party amidst the tourists in Borgholm!
At Pappa Blå pizzas are called things like Blå Måsen and Buss-Ola. And the Rock'n roll pizza is topped with beef fillet, tomatoes and garlic cheese… Fast Estelle and Oscar ordered surely from the children's menu and in that case Pizza Lilla Blå with tomato sauce, cheese and ham. And maybe the child favorite vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce for dessert?
- The Crown Princess family sat on the outside terrace and was just like anyone. Everyone ate pizza and Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar seemed to love the food, says the person who saw them.
In short, real dream guests!
But this royal pizzeria visit was of course completely private and when we talk to Simon, who is one of those responsible for Pappa Blå, he says:
- We never say who our guests are, he says kindly but firmly.
Can you tell me a little about Pappa Blå?
- We are a family restaurant one can say, we target families. And we have a very nice outdoor dining area and many regulars who appreciate that it is a little familiar. Then we are well established and we who run Pappa Blå live in Borgholm, which is not so common.
Especially Princess Estelle seems to love pizza and already as a four-year-old she and a friend got to hang out with dad Daniel to the pizza specialist Ciao Ciao Grande in Stockholm.

^^^^^ What an absolute treat. I bet they never thought they would see Victoria, Daniel, Estelle and Oscar scarfing their pizzas and dessert on their terrace let alone so quickly. ?
 
Allt om kungligt tells that an eyewitness saw Carl Philip and Sofia jogging at 8.30 in the morning on Gotland the other day. They ran on Visborgsslätt just south of Visby and just north of Kneippbyn which is a popular destination for families with children. There is both camping, water park and especially Pippi Longstocking Villa Villerkulla.
Princess Sofia ran in black tights, a black t-shirt and a black cap. She was wearing headphones and even the prince had a cap on her head.
- You could really see that they enjoyed the beautiful nature and surroundings, while at the same time kept a good pace. I noticed that they had no bodyguards with them, says Allt om Kungligt's eyewitness.
Carl Philip and Sofia's presence on Gotland coincides with the famous "Stockholm Week" in Visby when thousands of young people come to the island to party.

They went also to a glass bar in Visby with their sons. Someone asked if she could take a photo and published it later at Facebook.

Allt om kungligt reveals that the Crown Princess family bought an exclusive motorboat which is perfect for families with children.

Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel are currently enjoying summer holidays at Solliden Castle in Öland. After a spring full of work with lots of traveling, the young family recharges the batteries at the summer palace in which Victoria is so fond of.
And now the family has decided that they want to spend more time at sea.
The other day the entire Crown Princess family went to Gothenburg to buy a boat. According to information of Allt om kungligt, the royals chose the practical and stylish 10-meter-long Nimbus 365 Coupe motorboat, which is perfect for families with children.
The price of the boat which is praised for its functional design is around SEK 4 million. The boat is perfect for families and enjoyers who want to go far and stay comfortable.
The boat has a modern design with resilient lines, however, the manufacturer has chosen function before design.
Victoria and the family can enjoy a solid quality, where the dark mahogany creates a nice contrast to the lacquered bright surfaces and gives a warm feeling. The boat has two cabins divided into "owners cabin" and "guest cabin" with shared toilet.
On board, passengers travel royally. The cabins have fabric-covered shots in light material that muffle sound. The LED lighting in the boat is well thought out and creates well-being while being functional.
The integrated ventilation gives a significant difference in circulation and air quality.
The Nimbus 365 Coupé is 3.50 meters wide and weighs 6.3 tons. The boat is adapted to take a maximum of eight people and onboard there are berths for 6 people. Maybe it will be a premiere tour with Princess Madeleine and husband Chris where the company enjoys crayfish and snaps at sunset at Kalmarsund?
Victoria and Daniel can make wonderful day trips or take the boat home to Haga Palace. Upstairs in the salon, the space is maximized and is perceived as light and airy.
The salon has a large glass roof that provides generously with light inputs, which is perfect if Princess Estelle wants to sit and work with her homework.
The roof has two large openable roof panel with integrated sun protection. The salon has several large clean and flat areas but still feels cozy so that little prince Oscar can tumble around, maybe with a small soft ball?
After the Crown Princess family picked up the boat in Gothenburg, they ate lunch at Långedrag Värdshus where they might have chosen Summer Special which is a fish dish for 199 SEK?
Or they wanted to choose in the à la carte menu where Prince Daniel could munch on himself a Skagen served on rye bread topped with onion cream and pickled red onion as well as dill vinaigrette and crispy herb salad.
For the Crown Princess, there was the opportunity to celebrate the boat purchase with a grilled cod ridge with cream-cooked summer chanterelles with spinach and garlic, lemon butter sauce with onion and dill, variety on fennel and potato and celery range flavored with thyme, lemon and parmesan.
Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar could choose freely in the children's menu and we guess that it became the House's meatballs with mashed potatoes, cream sauce and genuine lingonberry jam. Afterwards, maybe the little royals got to party with it with the House's vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce and berries.

Princess Madeleine has been seen with the King and Queen
 
Expressen tells about the royal family's lunch at Mormors hamnkrog on Öland on Thursday.

In the midst of the other holiday celebrations in the small summer resort, the royals showed up and enjoyed a delicious lunch.
On site were the King and queen and Chris, Madeleine and Chris's mother Eva O'Neill - now a week of family reunion awaits.
The summers at Öland and Solliden Palace are sacred to the royal family, who are happy to spend a lot of time here with all the little princes, little princessses and other relatives. Both the King and Queen are in place on the summer fun as are Princess Madeleine and Chris O'Neill, and now the family has also been joined by Chris's mother Eva O'Neill.
Thursday offered glorious sunshine and 30 degrees on Öland, and the royal family chose to enjoy a lovely summer lunch at Mormors hamnkrog, beautifully located near the water.
With them, they also had Princesses Leonore and Adrienne and Prince Nicolas.
The family sat a bit on the outside dining area, but still in the middle of the other people. Queen Silvia was seen eating a cooling ice cream, among other things.
Outside, people walked around in bathing suits in the summer heat, but the royals were allowed to eat their lunch in peace and quiet.
After lunch, the family walked down to the harbor where they jumped on a boat and drove off.
Restaurant Mormors hamnkrog is a picturesque summer restaurant that got new owners this year.
However, when Expressen reaches the restaurant, they cannot comment on the royal family's visit.
Margareta Thorgren can confirm that Eva O'Neill is visiting even if she does not comment when she will be leaving.
- Yes, Chris has been visited by his mother, she tells Expressen.
She says the plan is for families to spend free time together.
- It is very nice when the families meet. Right now the whole Princess Madeleine's family is visiting and they have a free time on Öland. That's why parts of Chris's family are here to hang out.

At one of Expressen's photos we see also Patrick Sommerlath with the king and queen:

"For the first time in Stora Rör's history: King Carl XVI Gustaf stops his boat in the harbor Why then, you might wonder? Yes Together with the Queen, family and friends, he gave us a lunch visit at Mormor's Hamnkrog & Bistro. We thank you and wish them all a warm welcome again"

And Svensk Damtidning tells that they had dinner at Lundgren's Garage in Borgholm and also Chris's sister Natascha is in Solliden. There is a photo at the article.

A nice dinner at one of Borgholm's trendiest restaurants. Earlier today, Svensk Damtidning could reveal that Chris's mother, Eva O'Neill, is in Solliden. And now we can also tell that Chris's big sister Natascha also enjoys the island summer together with the family.
Solliden has a lot to offer this year, but the O'Neill family, as you know, like to move out among people and they wanted to experience Borgholm during the holidays. Said and done. Madeleine and Chris took Eva and Natascha to Lundgren's Garage, which has a place in the White Guide. It is owned by Henrik Insulander who is known from television. In 2013, he took third place in the TV4 program "Grillmästarna".
The group arrived at the restaurant around 20.00 in one of the royal stable's cars, a Volvo XC90, which Princess Madeleine drove. The restaurant is extremely popular and was fully booked for the evening but despite this, few people noticed the princess couple and the society women.
Chris enjoyed a drink, both before and with dinner, and Mom Eva chose a beer. The delicious menu included jalapeño poppers, guacamole, short ribs and hot smoked salmon.
A pleasant evening with good food and family fellowship. And now that Eva and Natascha have both experienced Solliden's calm charm and Borgholm's trendy pub life, they can do nothing but love Öland.

Summer Holidays with the Swedish Royal Family: 2016-2019

It is good to see Chris O’Neill’s family spend time in Sweden together with Madeleine & Chris. I hope that they make it a regular thing as this will be very supportive of the couple’s family commitments in Sweden since they live further afield nowadays in Florida. Apart from English when Chris is around, do we assume the lingua franca between Eva O’Neill, her daughter, Queen Sylvia and Madeleine might be German? Or doesn’t PM speak German?
 
Or doesn’t PM speak German?
Princess Madeleine does speak German. In fact she and Chris are said to speak it when they don't want people around them to understand what they're saying. Madeleine and her two siblings studied German at school under the first language tutoring system which gives children who speaks another language than Swedish at home the right to receive instruction in that language.

Thank you for that information! Well given that Chris has a knowledge of German, am I thinking correctly that would make it a little more helpful in learning Swedish? as he still doesn’t appear very confident with Swedish as it seems English is used around him widely in video pictures we see.
