Princess Sofia of Sweden and Prince Carl Philip are snapped smiling as they leave hospital in Stockholm with their new baby girl

Princess Sofia of Sweden and her husband her Prince Carl Philip have been photographed leaving hospital with their new baby.

The couple recently welcomed their newest family member, a daughter, at Danderyds Hospital near Stockholm. They were seen leaving the hospital with smiles on their faces the day after the baby’s birth.

According to the Palace, the royal, 40,  delivered a ‘healthy’ daughter at 1.10pm, with her husband, Prince Carl Philip, by her side.

Last September, the royal couple shared the news of expecting their fourth child, coincidentally around the same time Princess Beatrice announced her pregnancy.

Weighing a little over eight pounds at birth the Swedish newborn is the the couple’s first baby girl.

They have three sons named Prince Alexander (eight years old), Prince Gabriel (seven years old), and Prince Julian (three years old), but they have not yet revealed the name of their newborn daughter.

While she is eighth in line to the throne, Sofia and Carl Philip’s child will not have an HRH style title because of a decision made by King Carl XVI Gustaf in 2019.

During his Christmas speech, he revealed that he was stripping his grandchildren of their titles so that it could help them ‘eventually carve out their own future’.

The monarch said at the time: ‘The decision was to make clear who within the royal family will act as official representatives of Sweden in the future. For me, this is a way of clarifying what expectations are.

‘It will hopefully be helpful when my grandchildren eventually carve out their own future. But, to that day, it is far away.’

The new addition to the Swedish royal family is also King Carl and Queen Silvia’s ninth grandchild.

Following the birth, the official Swedish royal family account published a picture announcing the news, prompting many fans to congratulate the couple.

One wrote: ‘Many congratulations! There came the long-awaited girl!’

Another penned: A little princess in the middle of all the darkness, Sweden needed that right now.’

A third said: ‘Omg. Congratulations to Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia for the birth of their baby girl.’

A fourth commented: ‘What happiness, a daughter among all the nice kids!’

Carl Philip is the only son and second child of Sweden’s King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia. 

His older sister Princess Victoria, 47, is the heir to the Swedish throne.

In early December last year, Sofia hit a milestone and turned 40. 

However she postponed the celebrations because she was heavily pregnant. 

She told Vogue Scandinavia: ‘I’m going to be quite highly pregnant.

‘So, I think a bigger birthday party will wait a little bit. 

‘So probably just with my closest friends and family. I would not change where I am at all. I’m in a very happy place in life.’

The royal family posted about it on Instagram and wrote: 'The National Marshal's Office is pleased to announce that H.K.H. Princess Sofia, on Friday 7 February 2025 at 1:10 p.m. delivered a healthy daughter at Danderyd hospital'

The former glamour model also discussed her position in the royal fold, motherhood, and her charity work, including combating cyber hate and supporting dyslexia awareness. 

Carl Philip and the then-Miss Hellqvist announced their engagement in June 2014.

The announcement followed a four-year relationship that sparked outrage in Sweden when it first became public in 2009.

Since then, however, Princess Sofia has become one of the best-loved members of the Swedish royal family.

Among the positive feedback she has received from the public, fans praised the royal for working in hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic.
