The rarely seen daughter of Princess Madeleine, seven-year-old Princess Adrienne, has been confirmed for a major royal family outing next month.

The granddaughter of King Carl XVI Gustaf will appear alongside her mother and father, Christopher O'Neill, for one of her first significant assignments as part of the Swedish royal family.

On June 18, Princess Adrienne, who also bears the title of the Duchess of Blekinge, will pay her first visit to the province of Blekinge, to inaugurate her christening gift, according to a press release from the royal household.

Upon her christening, on 8 June 2018, the then-newborn princess was given a historically inspired playroom with a World Heritage theme at the Grevagården in Karlskrona, which is in front of the Blekinge Museum's main building.

Christoffer Sandahl, the director at Blekinge Museum, said: "This gift will delight all children. Knowledge of history gives us meaning and context. Through play and experiences, we can increase our understanding – not least among children and young people.

"The gift tells the story of creativity and the desire to create, both past and present," the museum director added.

Princess Adrienne is the first royal to hold the title of 'Duchess of Blekinge' since the introduction of the current system of duchies to Sweden back in the 18th century, hence why she was given the gift of a room in that county.

Princess Adrienne's day will conclude with a lunch at the Karlskrona residence and a visit to the artist Susanne Demåne in Edestad, in the Ronneby municipality, according to the press release.
