We have a large number who have died, and that is terrible. He is showing empathy for all those affected. The Stockholm regional healthcare director said all non-urgent care would be put off until at least 31 January. Observers say the move reflects a wider view that there is no need to pay so many members of the royal family for official duties.
The decision, announced in a statement published by the Royal Court of Sweden, regards the two sons of Prince Carl Philip and the three children of Princess Madeleine. As well as relieving them of their royal duties, the change means that the children - aged between one and five - will not be entitled to receive the taxpayer-funded annual sum known as appanage which is given to members of the royal house. Royal expert Roger Lundgren said the decision followed scrutiny over the increasing number of royals.
One thing was the size of the family," he said. He said the king had taken action on his own to deal with the issue and compared the move to reports that the UK's Prince of Wales wanted to "streamline the Royal Family". He also likened the new role of the five Swedish royals to that of princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who have pursued their own careers. Swedish historian Dick Harrison said the decision was likely made to meet the modern needs of the family, explaining that the Royal House had grown larger than it had been in years and that many thought there was no need to pay so many members or to have them available for official duties.
If this is a way to silence somebody who is looking into the Swedish royal family critically, then that is ill-boding. We must be able to scrutinize the royal family the way we scrutinise any other institution, without risking losing our jobs. Sjoberg's book cites several of the women who allegedly attended the king's sex parties. They describe how elaborate dinners were rounded off with sessions in a communal whirlpool when scantily clad women would "throw off their clothes and sit on the men's laps.
It is claimed that ordinary "suburban girls" were brought to the club where king is said to have "led them on with promises" in order to have sex with them. When that failed the club owner resorted to professional prostitutes. On one occasion, the king — who happens to be the Queen's third cousin — is said to have had sex with two women at the same time.
The book also details the king's apparently lengthy affair with Camilla Henemark, a Swedish singer and model. He started school in the autumn of , attending Broms School followed by the Sigtuna Boarding School. He graduated from upper secondary school in School was followed by military service. The Crown Prince completed two and a half years' training in the Army, Navy and Air Force, with a special emphasis on naval training.
