Royal baby news may be dominating the UK headlines today, but in Sweden there's just as much excitement - over another princely arrival.

This morning new father Prince Carl Philip, 38, headed to church with his parents King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia and other family members for a Te Deum service of thanksgiving to celebrate the arrival of Prince Gabriel last week.
Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia welcomed their second child on Thursday and this morning they announced the name Prince Gabriel Carl Walther, Duke of Dalecarlia for their son. 
The name was announced during a meeting at the Royal Palace in Stockholm between Prime Minister Stefan Lofven, Crown Princess Victoria and King Carl Gustaf.
