The court hasn't given a press statement about it, but the king's solicitor Axel Calissendorff said in September to Svensk Damtidning, that the child will be a princess or prince and a HRH, because Madeleine is a HRH. Svensk Damtidning has repeated this statement many times, also in this week's issue. If the solicitor would be wrong in this matter, the court should have corrected it officially. Annika Sönnerberg, the deputy director of the press department, told to the press that the court would inform about the possible title and place in the succession order when the child is born, she told this after the court had sent a press release that Madeleine will give birth in New York.
Thanks for this, LadyFinn. It would make more sense if she isn't given a royal title as I remember reading that in Europe, children are given the same title as their father, e.g. a Count of X's daughter would be known as Countess of X, a Prince's daughter would be known as Princess of X, etc. And another thanks to those who answered my post regarding the Count/ess Bernadotte of Wisborg title, now I know how that came about into becoming a Luxembourgish one. Makes more sense now.
