Princess Madeleine: This is how she now protects her children

Princess Madeleine, 37, does not have an easy time with her compatriots. Since the move to the USA, but at the latest since the decision of King Carl Gustaf, 73, to reduce the size of the royal family, the youngest daughter of the monarch has been under fire from the Swedish media. Recent reproach: She shows less and less photos of her children.

Princess Madeleine shows her children less and less

Madeleine posted the last picture together with the children Princess Leonore, six, Prince Nicolas, four, and Princess Adrienne, two, in October 2019.

This is followed by only two sweet individual snapshots of their daughters on their birthdays. That is too little for the Swedes. You obviously feel excluded.

Important appeal to parents

The sister of Princess Victoria, 42, is now commenting for the first time in the TV documentary "Barnens drottning" (in English: "The Queen of Children"). "It is (…) important to think when you post pictures," she says of the dilemma of her efforts to protect her children. But she also shows understanding: "I understand that people want to see our children, especially now that we don't live in Sweden." So far, she has therefore posted photos of her children from time to time for a good reason: "I do it to counteract pictures that otherwise come from paparazzi," says Princess Madeleine.

So it is a conscious choice, but it is up to you to decide which pictures it shows. "All parents should think twice before they publish a picture," she advises, because even if the pictures are cute and the kids run around naked in the garden, you don't know where the pictures end up.

The beautiful princess knows what she is talking about. As a supporter of her mother, Queen Silvia, 76, at the "World Childhood Foundation", the protection of children is particularly important to her. The organization mainly cares for those who have been victims of sexual violence and tries to prevent fate like this with intensive prevention work.
