Madeleine of Sweden's first daughter turns nine. On Instagram, the proud mom shares a cute photo of the birthday boy with his siblings. For daughter Leonore, the picture has a special meaning.

Madeleine of Sweden published a photo with her children in front of a special backdrop in an Instagram post.

Wrote the 40-year-old to the picture she shared with her approximately 317,000 Instagram followers. Their daughter was born in the "Big Apple" and celebrated her birthday on February 20.

A few days ago, Princess Madeleine Leonore had already lovingly congratulated Instagram with a sweet picture on her day of honor. "Turned nine today. Happy birthday to our sweet Leonore who smiles every day!" She also published a photo of the nine-year-old beaming at the camera in a summery outfit in front of a beach backdrop.

Madeleine of Sweden was in a relationship with Swedish lawyer Jonas Claes Bergstrom from 2002 to April 2010. In 2006, the couple lived in New York City for six months.
