Sofia Hellqvist, longtime girlfriend of Prince Carl Philip, also attended. While not officially a Swedish Royal, her attendance at this event seems to indicate she has become a member of this family. She wore an unembellished black bumper hat.

  1. I like all the hat’s except Sofia’s hat. It looked like one of Queen Beatrix’s old hats. I really hope she does not become a member of this family. She is terrible.

  2. Victoria’s hat is gorgeous. And I like how Margrethe changed the button on her hat to make it wearable for a funeral.
