Just In: Princess Madeleine of Sweden Continues Halloween Tradition: See Her Daughters’ Classic Costumes…. See More

It’s a spooky Halloween this year!” the royal mom wrote alongside ghost emojis

Happy Halloween from Princess Madeleine of Sweden and her family!

On Oct. 31, the Swedish princess continued tradition by posting a new photo of her loved ones rocking their Halloween costumes. Princess Madeleine, 42, and her husband Christopher O’Neill are parents to Princess Leonore, 10, Prince Nicolas, 9 and Princess Adrienne, 6, and the royal mom shared a shot of her daughters in costume.

“It’s a spooky Halloween this year!” Princess Madeleine posted on Instagram, adding two ghost emojis. The snap captured Princess Adrienne and Princess Leonore standing back to back beneath a tree, modeling their classic Halloween outfits.

Princess Adrienne wore what looked like a Little Red Riding Hood dress with a red bow in her hair, while Princess Leonore struck a pose in ghost robes. The sisters twinned in some fun holiday makeup — perhaps hinting that they’ve inherited their mom’s passion for Halloween!

Princess Madeleine is the youngest daughter of King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, and she moved back to Sweden with her husband and kids over the summer after living in the U.S. for nearly six years.

Madeleine and Christopher moved to Florida in 2018 and embraced American traditions like celebrating July 4 and dressing up on Halloween. The couple’s love story began in New York City in 2010, where the princess met the British-American financier while she was working for Queen Silvia’s World Childhood Foundation. They married in June 2013 and welcomed their children in the years that followed while trotting the globe.

Princess Leonore was born in New York City in 2014, and the family moved to Stockholm in 2015 before Prince Nicolas was born. They then relocated to London later that year, Hello!said, and Princess Adrienne was born in Stockholm in 2018. The family moved to Florida a few months later, but continued to travel back to Madeleine’s home country for special occasions and events.

In March 2023, the Swedish Royal Court announced that Madeleine and Christopher decided to “relocate to Sweden indefinitely” with their family, and returned to Stockholm in the summer of 2024.

According to the Swedish Institute, Halloween is a “relatively new custom” in the Scandinavian country that has only been widely celebrated since the 1980s. The holiday synonymous with costumes, trick-or-treating, spooky decor and parties also seems to be a hit with Princess Madeleine!

The royal has posted pictures almost every year with her family in costume for Halloween since they moved to Florida, with Christopher joining in the fun starting in 2021

Last year, Princess Madeleine and Christopher coordinated in Western wear that social media commenters said was reminiscent of the characters Beth and Rip fromYellowstone.

Meanwhile, Princess Leonore, Prince Nicolas and Princess Adrienne got into the spirit as Barbie, Ghostface from Scream and Anna from Frozen — all popular American costumes among the trick-or-treating set.
