Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip of Sweden have taken to their Instagram account to share an adorable new photograph of their sons, Prince Gabriel and Prince Alexander. The sweet shot, which shows the royal brothers sat on a bench together on a sunny day, was captioned: "Summer at Solliden," with a sweet heart emoji - referring to the palace where the Swedish royals spend the warmer months. Little Prince Gabriel, who will turn one later in August, has certainly grown – while big brother Alexander looks keen to get off and play!

In one photo taken by Princess Sofia just after Gabriel's arrival, Prince Alexander can be spotted fussing over the new baby - with the couple captioning the snap: "Three weeks ago our beloved son Gabriel, Alexander's little brother, came," accompanied with a love heart emoji.
