Sharing her excitement, the 42-year-old penned: “I’m excited to share that I’m launching ‘MinLen’ a natural skincare line, developed in collaboration with Weleda, a global leader in certified natural skincare. MinLen is the first natural, responsible, multi-generational skincare brand in Europe — created with the needs of both young and growing families in mind.”

In her post, Madeleine also revealed that seeing as it’s a “private initiative”, she will use the name Madeline Bernadotte instead of her royal title, Princess Madeleine, Duchess of Hälsingland and Gästrikland.

“Our product range will officially launch at the end of the summer and as this is a private initiative, I will use my name Madeleine Bernadotte in my work with MinLen. I look forward to sharing more with you very soon! @weleda,” she shared.

The Swedish royal family is officially known as The House of Bernadotte. The family’s origins trace back to Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte, a Marshal of France under Napoleon, who was elected Crown Prince of Sweden and later became King Charles XIV John of Sweden.
