You might not know it, given Will & Kate & Co.’s primacy in English-language media, but there are European royal families besides the Windsors. For instance, the Swedish house of Bernadotte, which includes a princess who was once a reality TV star.
That would be Princess Sofia, married to the comically dashing Prince Carl Philip (number four in the line of succession, behind his older sister and her kids). She gave birth to their first child, Prince Alexander, in April. And we really don’t talk about this bunch enough. Even Kim Kardashian hasn’t been able to parlay her media dominance into a royal title! Please take a moment to respect the hustle!
