'A perfect little quartet': Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip share first photo of their children after Princess Ines' birth

Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip have described their children as "a perfect little quartet" as they shared the first photo of their three sons with their baby sister, Princess Ines.

The newest member of the Swedish royal family was born on February 7, and on Monday, her name was revealed to be Ines Marie Lilian Silvia.

Princess Ines is the first daughter for the couple, who are parents to Prince Alexander, eight, Prince Gabriel, seven, and Prince Julian, three.

Princess Ines is clearly already spoilt by her older brothers, who are seen cradling her in the photo.

In a separate image, Prince Julian gives his sister a kiss on the head.

The photos received many likes and comments, including a message of "congratulations" from Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, the husband of Britain's Princess Beatrice.

Princess Beatrice and Mozzi – who also welcomed a new baby this month – have worked with Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia in the past to bring awareness to dyslexia and to reduce stigma surrounding it.

Princess Beatrice and Mozzi have dyslexia, as does Prince Carl Philip and his father King Carl XVI Gustaf.

In April 2022, Princess Beatrice and Mozzi joined Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia at a World Dyslexia Assembly event inside the royal palace in Stockholm. Prince Carl is also is patron of Sweden's Dyslexia Association.

The King's dyslexia was partially blamed for a little mishap on Monday when he announced his granddaughter's name incorrectly.

During a special Cabinet meeting led by the monarch, King Carl XVI Gustaf, 78, revealed the baby's name for the first time.

But he accidentally said the baby's name as "Inse" instead of "Ines".

"This is a very great joy for us in the family," the King added.

The Swedish royal court later issued an apology for the mistake, which has been blamed on the King's dyslexia and the monarch being told of the baby's name just before the announcement.

"The King is very sorry that he said the wrong name," the palace said.

"The reason is that the names were kept secret until just before the council, even from the King," the palace continued.

"He did not feel that he said the wrong name when he read the names, but he understood that later."

The baby will also be known by the title Duchess of Västerbotten, a title last held by the King's late mother.

Princess Ines is now eighth-in-line to the Swedish throne and the ninth grandchild for King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia.

She will be known as a princess but will not carry the Royal Highness title due to changes made by her grandfather in 2019.

The baby, like her siblings and the three children of Princess Madeleine and her husband Christopher O'Neill, is a member of the royal family but not part of the royal house.
