In her book Victoria, Victoria she tell about the a Episode.
At Norway State visit to Sweden was Victoria as a 14-year-old girl a part of a state visit for the first time.
When the dessert came after the dinner she accidentally dropped her ice cream on King Haralds shirt. The king was quick to repair the damage and Victoria who did not want to forsake her dessert had an other go at the ice cream and King Harald took is napkin and put it in front of is face.

Victoria sølte dessert på kong Harald


Kongemiddagen gikk bra helt til desserten kom på bordet. Kronprinsesse Victoria satte gaffelen hardt i marengsen, som fløy gjennom luften og griset til kong Haralds hvite skjorte.

Den svenske kronprinsessen forteller om episoden i den rykende ferske boken «Victoria, Victoria», som lanseres i Sverige i dag.
Victoria var 14 år gammel da hun deltok i sitt første statsbesøk da det norske kongeparet gjestet Sverige. Middagen ble holdt på Operaterrassen, og kronprinsessen forteller at hun var svært nervøs. Likevel gikk det bra, helt til desserten kom på bordet.

Desserten var en issorbet, formet som en liten svane med marengsvinger, på en sjø av bringebærsaus. Men marengs som har smeltet litt i ovnen har en tendens til å bli veldig hard og klistre seg fast i fatet, og det hadde ikke kronprinsessen tenkt over.

Det tenkte ikke jeg på, men satte gaffelen hardt i vingen for å få tak i den, og «sponk!». Vingen fløy opp og satte seg som en brosje på kong Haralds skjorte, med litt bringebærsaus rennende fra den, forteller Victoria leende til forfatter Alice Bah.

Det var flaks at det var akkurat ham, han er verdens beste, han smilte samtidig som han diskret plukket den bort, forteller kronprinsessen.

Men da jeg, som ikke ville gi opp på grunn av det lille uhellet, satte gaffelen i den andre vingen, var kong Harald rask til å holde en serviett foran ansiktet!

August 28, 1993

I found one of the pictures

WA has the look of "caught with his hand in the cookie jar" ???
(or did he have a small "crush" on some unnamed lady ?????)

 

[Dennism]

I know I would be smiling from ear to ear if I were in his position.

 

[hrhcp]

Me too.

But WA sort of has that embarrassed look about him .... ?

 

[theprincess]

Did anybody else notice that WA looks very chubby in that picture w/ CP Victoria? I almost didn't recognize him, his checks are so chubby

I think its more a case of him smiling and that is causing his cheeks to proejct outwards. And then he has his head down. But, yes ... a certain similarity to chipmunk cheeks.

 

[Lena]

Hasn´t he such an chronic illness ( I think it has something to do with glands, but I don´t remember really), which was treated with cortisone?!

 

[Lena]

Isn´t that cuuuuuutttteeee?

 

[Yennie]

aww thats such a cute picture of Victoria and her teddy!

 

[Cerasma]

I found a nice picture of Victoria, and i didn´t know if its already posted

Also Victoria seems to be interested in motorized vehicles, like her brother and her father
I think you can see Carl Philip in the background, but i´m not sure.
If someone know it better, please let me know!
And sorry about shoving this picture between your current discussion.
