Everyone went gooey-eyed at the sight of Prince George cuddling his newborn sister, Princess Charlotte last year, so we’re not surprised to see that Sweden’s Crown Princess Victoria decided to follow the Duchess of Cambridge’s lead this week.
The Princess, who welcomed her second child, Prince Oscar, on March 2nd has introduced her newborn to the world in a series of beautiful photos.
Sharing a stunning Facebook shot of four-year-old daughter Princess Estelle cuddling her little brother, the Palace wrote: “We would like to convey our sincere gratitude for all the kind greetings and congratulations we have received in connection with Princess Estelle’s birthday and the birth of Prince Oscar. We genuinely appreciate your kindness and that so many of you share our happiness.”
Varmt tack för alla hälsningar, lyckönskningar och gratulationer vi fått i samband med Prinsessan Estelles födelsedag...

While the candid and cute picture of Estelle and baby Oscar was captured by doting dad Prince Daniel, a follow-up shot of the Crown Princess cradling her newborn was taken by a professional photographer.
Newborn Prince Oscar, officially known as the Duke of Skane, is third in line to the throne.
What a beautiful bundle of joy!
