The news comes as Sofia and Carl Philip are making room at the palace for their newest addition. Sofia is due to give birth to a younger sibling for 1-year-old Prince Alexander in September. The expectant princess ticked off the last official event on her calendar in early August.
The new royal babies will join cousins Princess Estelle and Prince Oscar, who belong to Crown Princess Victoria and her husband, Prince Daniel.
“We’ve always been quite close – even though I’ve lived abroad – but when you have kids, it’s an extra connection,” Madeleine, who currently high chairs in London, told PEOPLE of the bond she shares with her siblings.
“And the little cousins, Leonore and Estelle, they’re very close – they’re more like sisters,” she added. “Victoria and I try very hard to make it so they really can see each other and play and have fun.
“Cousins are great – they are your friends, but they’re family. They can support each other.”
