Position in the royal family

On October 7, 2019, King Carl XVI signed Gustaf decided that the children of Prince Carl Philip and Princess Madeleine will no longer be part of the royal family, but only part of the royal family. This means that they lose the title of royal highness. The title of Duke or Duchess is unaffected. This does not change the line of succession either. The decision stems from the fact that the royal house should be limited to people who perform public duties on behalf of the king. Since this will not be expected of the children of Carl Philip and Madeleine in the future either, they are now regarded as private individuals and can later accept a job or pursue an economic activity, which they would not have been able to do as members of the royal family. Prince Carl Philip said they support the decision and see it positively, as it gives his children more freedom of choice. Princess Madeleine also expressed support for the decision and emphasized that this had been planned for a long time and that it would give her children the opportunity to shape their lives as private individuals.
