What terrible sponsored outfits they put them in, by Denham. I am sure they suit the designers but nobody else looks good in them.

Do the royals wear the same outfits as the athletes?
If so, then the Dutch can count themselves lucky, because our team's outfits were rightly ridiculed.

Some outfits were better than others! I thought that Colombia and Mongolia's teams both looked fabulous.

Princess Anne and Tim Laurence both wore Team GB scarves.

The Royal Court has updated its calendar, King Carl Gustaf attends the Olympic Games for five days alone, queen Silvia doesn't attend.

Johan Tegel, the Deputy Director of the Information Department at the Swedish Royal Court, confirmed to the press that the Queen has been forced to cancel her attendance at the Olympics due to illness.
“Due to a cold, Her Majesty the Queen will not be participating in the trip.”
On Tuesday, the King, who is a ski fan, will watch the sprint competitions in Val di Fiemme. Sportbladet met the King on Monday, and he was optimistic:
– It will be a success.
On Wednesday the King visits Antholz to watch the women's biathlon competition. Then he will return to Val di Fiemme to watch both the women's and men's 10 km freestyle.
And hockey? Prince Daniel will take that. He will, among other things, watch Sweden against Italy in hockey on Wednesday.

No, King Carl XVI Gustaf did not bring any luck with him from Tuesday's medal success in the women's sprint.
With the king in the stands, there was only one top ten finish in the biathlon distance race.
- Sometimes things don't go quite as planned. They deserve better, but they have many more chances, says the king on site in northern Italy.

– It's great that he came and supported. Always great when royalty comes and supports, says Rasmus Dahlin.
They didn't have time to exchange too many words.
– We met him on the way down to the food, so it was just a quick "hey there, hello".
– I met him before, so it was fun. We just chatted about the game and that, says William Nylander.
