Greetings From The Alps: Carl Gustaf & Silvia On Winter Holiday

The King and Queen of Sweden are currently spending part of their winter break in the Swiss Alps. A photograph of the couple was released at the end of their day’s hike, with the gorgeous snow-covered mountains in the background.

Queen Silvia – who was hospitalised over Christmas with a cold and dizzy spells – has been in the news on a different matter this week: she has given an interview for documentary on Drottningholm Palace, and said that “you sometimes feel that you’re not completely alone”  – inferring the Palace is haunted by ghosts. “It’s really exciting…you don’t get scared,” she says, calling the ghostly inhabitants “all very friendly”.

The documentary airs on Thursday evening on STV.
