Sweden’s Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia have announced the birth of their fourth child, a daughter.
The young princess, whose name and photograph have not been released, was born on Friday in Stockholm.
The royals said the baby weighs 8 lbs and is 19 inches long.
Her father, Prince Carl Philip, is the son of Sweden’s King Carl XVI Gustaf and fourth in the line of succession.
He married Sofia Hellqvist in June 2015. Their daughter joins her brothers, Prince Alexander, Prince Gabriel and Prince Julian.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson and the government congratulated the family in a statement.
“We wish the family all the best,” Mr Kristersson said.
The king is Sweden’s head of state, but his duties are ceremonial and he holds no political power.
The royal family is hugely popular in Sweden and the monarchy enjoys widespread support despite the egalitarianism that otherwise characterises society in the Nordic country.
