Former model and Swedish reality TV star, Princess Sofia of Sweden married Prince Carl-Philip in 2015. Prince Carl-Philip is the second son of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia. The new royal couple has two children one year apart. Prince Alexander and Prince Gabriel are fifth and sixth in line for the throne.
The beautiful princess is a tireless supporter of global children’s issues. At her presentation at the Global Child Forum, she said, “I have seen a fair share of suffering, poverty, and neglect. But, I have also seen children’s eyes light up as they are empowered to shape their own lives.” She co-founded Project Playground, a children’s charity based in South Africa.
Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark
This young princess has committed her life to fashion and design. She studied at New York’s Parson School of Design and has interned for Dior. Princess Maria-Olympia is the only daughter of Princess Marie-Chantal Miller and Crown Prince Pavlos. She was born in 1996 on July 25. In May of 2019, “Olympia Greece,” as she was summoned, graduated from NYU with her royal family in attendance. Her parents proudly announced it on Instagram.
The princess is a gorgeous American fashion model and socialite. She has modeled for several magazines, including Teen Vogue. She is sixth in line to the former throne of Greece after her father and brothers. We wonder who her prince will be!
Princess Elisabeth von Thurn und Taxis
What was it like growing up as Princess von Thurn Und Taxis? Can you imagine living in a German castle adorned in contemporary art, with guests like Keith Haring and Jeff Koons stopping by as family friends? It was inspiring, to say the least.
Princess Von Thurn Und Taxis said, “My mum was really into fashion as well as art, she had all this really cool couture from the 1980s—Lacroix, Jean Patou—so my sister and I would spend hours trying on the clothes.” Her upbringing led her to the fashion world. As a German author journalist, socialite, art collector, and style editor-at-large for Vogue, the princess known as TNT, says the mix of influence from her mother has guided her style. This thoroughly modern princess currently resides in London.
Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden
Princess Victoria of Sweden is the nation’s next queen. Her line of succession will make her the fourth ruling queen in the history of Sweden, and the first time since 1720 that the nation has been ruled by a woman. She is King Carl XVI Gustav and Queen Silvia’s firstborn child.
The royal lineage extends to her children. Princess Victoria is married to Prince Daniel Westling, the Duke of Vastergotland. They have two children, Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar. Victoria met her prince when he was her personal trainer. They married in June of 2010.
Princess Manohara Odelia Pinot of Malaysia
Princess Manohara is no longer a Malaysian princess. As a commoner, she married Prince Tengku Muhammad Fakhry Petra when she was 16, but it was a disaster. The teenage bride claimed she was held captive and tranquilized into submission while he assaulted her.
Manohara, whose name means “thief of hearts” in Sanskrit, has captivated the hearts of Malaysians and Indonesians alike with her real-life soap opera. The former Indonesian model, whose stunning beauty first captivated the prince, has now turned to politics, running for legislative office. By joining the NasDem party, she hopes to raise concern for animals and the environment. She holds no grudges against Malaysia and has said, “Kings are like ordinary people, some are good, some are bad. Just because I had a bad experience with one does not mean all are like that.”
