Princess Madeleine's outfits in Swedish ELLE

As many of you may know, Princess Madeleine was featured in this years November issue of Swedish ELLE. I was so lucky that I was travelling through Stockholm (I don't live in Stockholm and Swedish ELLE is not available where I live) last week so I was able to grab a copy of the issue. The photos in the magazine are by Marcus Ohlsson and they are styled by Cia Jansson and Lisa Lindqwister. The issue has five different covers, all of which feature Princess Madeleine: four that are only available to subscribers of the magazine and one and the same that is available on newsstands.

5 Reasons That Suggest Prince Carl Philip and Sofia Hellqvist are Already Secretly Engaged!

UPDATED: On 27 June 2014 it was announced that Prince Carl-Philip and Sofia Hellqvist are engaged. The wedding will take place in June 2015. Click here for photos of Sofia's engagement ring.

Prince Carl Philip and Sofia Hellqvist have been dating for several years but are not yet (that we know of) engaged. However, there are a few things that suggest that they might already be secretly engaged!

1. They are living together

Carl-Philip and Sofia have been living together since April 2011 which indicates this is a serious relationship and they want to make a statement that they are together no matter what people might think or say about them.

2. They have a puppy together

This is a tiny step further towards their future together. Since they can't have a baby until they marry, getting a puppy is a natural step to take at this time. Princess Madeleine and Jonas Bergström got a puppy together before they got engaged. You have probably seen Madeleine's dog, Zorro. That's the one! Prince Carl-Philip and Sofia's dog is a female called Siri.

3. Sofia is attending "princess lessons"

Sofia has done everything in her power to transform her self from being a swimsuit model to being a princess. A while back Sofia hired her own personal stylist, Camilla Åstrand and together they have worked on improving her image and we have see Sofia dress quite formally and princess-like the last couple years or so. Well done Sofia!

4. Sofia has finally been accepted by the Swedish Royal Family

Sofia has had quite a rough time being the princes' girlfriend. At least in the beginning she did. Some people didn't think she was fit to be a princess because of her background as a reality show contestant and because she posed in the Swedish man magazine Slitz. Recently she has been taking her role as the princes' girlfriend seriously and seems to be doing her best to fit in with the Royal family. It is evident that she has already been accepted as one of the family now because among other events she was included in Princess Lilian's funeral, Princess Madeleine's wedding and the wedding of Prince Carl-Philips cousin, Gustaf Magnuson. Sofia was even included on the family photo when the banns of marriage were published for Princess Madeleine in May this year.

5. They have been looking at churches lately

The strongest indicator that we might see Carl-Philip and Sofia walk down the isle in near future is that they have been seen shopping around for churches to get married in. In mid-August, Swedish newspaper Expressen reported that the pair had been looking at churches together. Evidently the two churches that they like the most are Gärdslösa church and Räpplinge church.

There you go! Do you think Carl Philip and Sofia are secretly engaged? How long do you think it will take until they announce the engagement?

Jonas Bergström: Madeleine's ex-fiancé

Who is Jonas Bergström some of you might ask. The short answer is Jonas Bergström is Princess Madeleine's ex-fiancé but there is so much more to say.

Madeleine and Jonas on the occasion of their Engagement in August 2009

The story of Princess Madeleine and Jonas Bergström

Jonas and Madeleine met through mutual friends Nathalie Rosta and Dag Werner back in 2002. At first, Jonas was hesitant to say yes to going on a date with a princess but he eventually gave in. They dated for several years and Jonas proposed to Madeleine on the island of Capri early June 2009 and the engagement was made official on August 11th 2009. Originally the wedding was supposed to take place in late 2010 and it was speculated that November was the month they would get married. However, things didn't quite go as planned.

Nathalie Rosta & Dag Werner, the mutual friends who brought Jonas and Madeleine together

Madeleine and Jonas' relationship crisis can be traced back to early 2009 when Jonas went with friends on an annual ski trip to Åre in Sweden. He checked in at the hotel under the alias "Jacob Bernström" and on this trip he met a Norwegian girl who he allegedly was intimate with behind Madeleines back. Soon after, when media found out Jonas had checked in under an alias it became clear he was hiding something. Rumors that Jonas was unfaithful started to spread and news of the couples relationship crisis became more frequent. In early 2010 things really took a turn for the worse. They hadn't been seen together for months and when Queen Silvia, Madeleine's mother was interviewed on April 13th 2010 she told the reporter that she had heard of the rumors and told him "everything is fine with Madeleine and everything is OK between Madeleine and Jonas." But was it?

Madeleine and Jonas before the crisis

Only a week after Queen Silvia had made her statement that everything was "fine" Norwegian gossip magazine Se & Hor published a tell-all interview with a Norwegian girl, Tora Uppstrom Berg. Tora turned out to be the girl from Åre. In the interview Tora claimed she and Jonas had been intimate in Åre. Tora did not recognize Jonas at first as he had introduced himself as Jacob the whole time. Later, Tora realized who "Jacob" really was and tried to get a hold of him without any result. That is when she decided to go public with the story.

Just days before Se & Hor published the Tora Uppstrom Berg tell-all article, it was reported that Madeleine had thrown Jonas out of her appartment at the Palace. Some speculate that she already knew about the affair with the Norwegian blondie.

Just four days after Tora came clean the Royal Court announced that Madeleine and Jonas had decided to go their separate ways.

Jonas falls in love with Madeleine's childhood friend

Madeleine's childhood friend, Stephanie af Klercker was a great support to Madeleine after the breakup. Stephanie and her at-the-time-boyfriend, Ludvig Blomqvist were good friends of Madeleine and Jonas and used to hang out a lot and go on double dates together.

Stephanie was a great support to Madeleine after the engagement with Jonas was broken off. She had recently broken up with Ludvig at the time so the two could relate.

Stephanie af Klercker

Shortly after the breakup Madeleine fled the country. She moved to New York to work for Childhood, an organization co-founded by Queen Silvia, and also to get away from Jonas and the chaos their breakup had caused in her hometown, Stockholm.

Jonas stayed in Stockholm to lick his wounds after the breakup. And while Madeleine was away in New York to get over the break up Jonas became closer to Madeleine's childhood friend, Stephanie af Klercker. The two eventually started secretly dating and in early 2011 it was official; they were a couple.

When Madeleine heard the news she is said to have immediately broken off all contact with Stephanie.

Stephanie and Jonas got engaged in October 2012, just like Madeleine and Chris. Madeleine married Chris on 8 June 2013. Stephanie and Jonas got married on 17 August 2013 in Stora Mellösa church. The reception was held at Stephanie's family estate in Hjelmarsnäs, Sweden. Her bridesmaids were Malin Andrén and Elinore Sylwander. Click here for photos of the wedding.

Naturally when you are a part of Stockholms high-society you are bound to have some mutual friends as is the case with Madeleine and Stephanie. Some of the same guests who attended Madeleine and Chris' wedding also attended Stephanie and Jonas' wedding. Among others Louise Gottlieb who is Madeleine's best friend. According to unverified rumors, Stephanie asked Louise to be her bridesmaid which she originally agreed on but later refused out of respect for Madeleine.

After all the chaos and everything Madeleine and Jonas went through from their breakup and until they met their new partners it is good to see that both are now happy and in love again. Although the couples unevitably are bound to run into each other in the future with all the mutual friends between them it is safe to say the hardest part truly is over.

Currently, Jonas Bergström is a partner at the Stockholm based Law firm Vinge KB and Stephanie is a marketing manager at Soft Goat.

Updated 28th August 2013: It has been confirmed that Stephanie is pregnant with the couples first child.

Updated 14th February 2014: Stephanie and Jonas had a baby girl on 13th February 2014. Her name is Katinka Bergström, which is also Stephanie's middle name. Congrats to the happy couple.

Madeleine's Wedding

Watch Madeleine and Chris O'Neill's wedding again! Everything is so beautiful, especially the bride.

If you fast forward to 22:55 you can actually hear when Chris pulls a "Diana" he says Madeleine's names in the wrong order. Instead of "...take you Madeleine Thérese Amelie Josephine.." Chris says "...take you Madeleine Amelie Thérese Josephine.."I guess he was nervous, that is so cute!
