Thanks a lot Lena, that was very helpfull! So she is from an average background and could be anybody's girl-next-door?
You are welcome. Yes, I´d say, she could be seen as some kind of girl-next-door...or her parents wanted her to stay down to earth...and asked her to job as waitress
But their income from last year (32245 EURO) doesn´t let me think, they are overly rich. The article also says, they are driving a VW golf car from 1992.
I would be surprised if she would become a fulltime princess like Alexandra of Denmark was. Sweden already has Princess Madelaine who steps n from time to time. And Carl-Philip seems to be working on his own carreer too, so I hope for Emma that she will be able to continue her own carreer after an eventual marriage, as was the case in Norway and The Netherlands too.
Well, with Carl Philip I´m somehow puzzled. Sometimes it seems, as if he would go for very own things and then, as if he would want to be a full time support for his sister.
Personally I would hope, they would go for a sharp separation. Either duties only (and graphic design for an charity event, I´d somehow see as duty, if it wouldn´t be charged by them) or a real job...with no apanage...so (probably) only family events would be celebrated together.
A solution of pseudo indepence -as the one of Märtha Louise- I wouldn´t hope for.
Why is it easy for people in Sweden to know what somebody is earning? -Are her elder sisters married btw?
What the reason for this is, I can´t say, nor how it works exactly. There are some books, where you can look things up...or you can go to the old school of a person and ask for her/his school reports. Maybe the Swedes can tell more. Cissan is working with taxes, if I recall it rightly...
However...I think, it´s an pretty annoying thing. And I would hate the idea of my neighbour knowing, what I´m earning. It´s just pushing things like jealousy...
There is nothing more on her sisters. The elder one seems to live in Helsingborg and is still carrying her birth name...but this doesn´t need to mean anything in Sweden. I guess Emma is aunt though.
BTW I never knew that CP was so much on the background in Sweden. When I saw the Kings 60th birthday celebrations last year the crowd seemed to go wild for the boy (well, judging from the schoolgirl screams at least).
Eight years indeed is a long time...
Have you been in Stockholm then?
I think, he is somehow seen as a cute person, some may also consider him as hot...but there don´t seem to be more things than that.
I think actually he is even best made for watching pictures of him.
He isn´t all over the place like his sisters, is keeping a low profile and quite short-spoken...I think there is some kind of invisible wall between him and the public. And ppl seem to accept that.
Here is a video of him talking about his photo project in Uppsala btw.
He is politely and friendly...but it doesn´t look, as if he would really "click" with the person interviewing him. And that, I´m seeing a lot with him.

Is that number correct? She certainly did not earn much money last year? What exactly does she do?
Well, I guess, that´s at least the income, she has taxed. I´m not sure, but I think in the beginning, she just did an internship in this company, so maybe therefore the low income last year.
If it´s permanently that low, so if she isn´t working that much, we can be pretty sure, that she is living on Carl Philip and some nice freebies...
What she does, I can´t say. As it seems, there are several project leaders (projektledare) in the company
Storåkers McCann
Interesting is, that company and Emma´s apartment are in the very same street...and the article says, that she has some kind of "permanent right of residence" in her apartment, so maybe she got it for much better conditions (or this is standard in Stockholm?)...just as Daniel, who probably couldn´t afford an apartment in the area, where he is living. At least not with all the trips he is doing, and the clothes, he is these days wearing.
Interesting is also, that the company is working for Silvia´s World Childhood foundation.
And didn´t we got to read of late, that Emma is allowed to drive one of the court´s leased cars?
If you ask me, little Emma had a lot of luck in the past.
Daniel got much harder judged for such behaviour...and if I´d write at Expressobladet, I´d "write" them directly into a marriage. Somewhere one has to start, if there is no chance in getting Daniel and Victoria soon to the altar
8 years is such a long time. She already was with Carl Philip, when he entered the order of innocence in 2001 and she was at Madeleine´s graduation from high school. It seems, as if she is around forever.
If Carl Philip would marry Emma, he would at least know, what he can expect. And they seem to share a lot of things. And a woman looking like Mamma...how often can you find that
Well, of late these similiarities seemed to have gotten a little less...
