Princess Madeleine
Her turbulent love life before husband Chris O’Neill
In November 2012, US businessman Chris O’Neill proposed to his great love Princess Madeleine. On June 8, 2013, they said “yes” and today they have three children. But it was a long road to get there. Madeleine not only had flirts and a convicted ex-boyfriend. She also had her heart broken in the most painful way. GALA looks back at the princess’s turbulent love life.
For decades, there was a rumor that Princess Madeleine and her riding instructor Pontus Westergren were more than just friends. They allegedly started dating in the late 1990s. They met at the riding club.
