Princess Victoria was last spotted snuggling up to her eldest child, Estelle when the family stepped out together in March to celebrate Name Day in Stockholm.

On the day, the Swedish royal and her daughter were seen sharing a tender moment as they walked together with Victoria bringing a smile to her daughter's face as she whispered something in her hear. 

According to tradition, certain names align with particular dates and the Crown Princess Victoria's is celebrated on March 12. 

Just yesterday, the busy Princess Victoria took part in the Veterans Day celebrations in Gothenburg.

The royal, sported nautical colours as she visited Tångudden port to honour those who have served with the Swedish Armed Forces and to remember those who died while serving their country.

The mother-of-two was dressed in a long-sleeved, navy dress with white spots and a pussybow feature as she arrived in Sweden's second largest city.

Cinched at the waist with a slim, white belt, the dress was perfectly complemented by a white, collarless blazer.

Princess Victoria completed the look with a pair of high-heeled, navy court shoes and a clutch bag in the same shade.

Wearing pearl earrings and with her brown hair brushed back into a chic chignon, she looked typically polished for the occasion.

The fresh-faced royal kept her make-up simple and smiled as she posed for photographs with members of the Swedish Armed Forces, specifically the country's Royal Navy.

At one point, she boarded a large vessel, holding on to the railings to steady herself at sea.

Sweden's Veterans Day, which takes place annually on May 29, comes ahead of the 80th anniversary of D-Day, which will see leaders from around the world honour their militaries and commemorate the dead.
