The Future Queen of Sweden, 13, and Her Adorable Dog Have a Starring Role in Relaxed Summer Video

Princess Estelle is set to take the Swedish throne one day, but for now she's enjoying vacation like any other teenage girl. The 13-year-old royal and her brother Prince Oscar, 9, showed off some sweet summer moments in an Instagram Reel their parents Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel shared on Sunday, August 31—but another member of the royal family stole the show.

Crown Princess Victoria—who is next in line to the Swedish throne—and husband Prince Daniel welcomed a Cavapoo named Rio into their family in 2020. The curly pup is seen in a number of snapshots in their summer video, with Princess Estelle looking all grown up as she cradles Rio in two beautiful new portraits. The teenage princess wears an ivory sweater in one picture as she holds her dog, and in another close-up shot, she's dressed in a tan hoodie while Rio looks right into the camera.
