One day, 13-year-old Princess Estelle will become the queen of Sweden, but on Monday, July 14, it was time to celebrate the country's next monarch—Estelle's mother, Crown Princess Victoria. The Swedish royal family celebrates Victoria's birthday, known as "Victoriadagen," at Solliden Palace each summer, and King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia honored their daughter's 48th birthday during Tuesday's festivities. While the crown princess was the star of the show, royal watchers couldn't help but point out how grown up Princess Estelle looked—especially when it came to her height.
Wearing gold ballet flats and a blue floral mini dress from Swedish brand Indiska, Estelle appeared just a few inches shorter than dad Prince Daniel, who is said to be 5'11. And Crown Princess Victoria—who is around 5'7 and was wearing her go-to 4-inch Valentino espadrille wedges with a green Saloni maxi dress—is just a hair taller than her daughter in a series of family portraits.
