After the royal couple welcomed their son on Tuesday, the proud new dad shared the official snap of his bundle of joy.
The photo, which was taken by the Prince, shows the fifth-in-line to the throne sound asleep in a bassinet covered in blankets while dressed in a white sleeper suit.
Hello Prince Alexander Erik Hubertus Bertil, Duke of Sodermanland!
The family revealed their son’s beautiful name earlier this week.
Carl Philip’s father King Carl XVI Gustaf explained that the new parents followed Swedish royal tradition revealing his grandson’s name and title at a cabinet meeting.
Prince Alexander was born at 6:25pm at the Danderyd hospital in Stockholm and weighed about 3.5 kgs.
“The Marshal of the Realm is delighted to announce that HRH Princess Sofia gave birth to a healthy child,” a statement on the royal Facebook page said.
The new family-of-three have returned to their home at Drottningholm Palace, with the palace revealing they’re “doing well,” and are “looking forward” to spending time with their son.
Our very first look at little Prince Alexander!
