Princess Madeleine of Sweden
Posted: 17 May 2013, 14:56
Princess Madeleine is shortly to marry her American/British fiance Chris O'Neill. It has just been confirmed that, not unexpectedly, he will not be made a Swedish Prince, nor Duke of Hälsingland and Gästrikland, the counties of which his future wife is Duchess. It is thus very unlikely that we shall see a CoA for him. The couple's monogram has been designed and can be seen here:

As a US citizen who intends to continue to live and work in the States, a royal title would have been an inconvenience (indeed the King of Sweden might have opined that a Swedish royal title and a "proper job" were mutually exclusive). It should also be noted that the King's sisters' husbands did not receive Swedish titles or CoAs.
