Prince William and Princess Kate warmly welcomed the Swedish royals upon their arrival in the UK. They kicked off their first day with a special visit to The Three Blackbirds pub in Newmarket where the Swedish princess was spotted pulling pints.

On the second day of the state visit, the royal quartet visited Windsor Castle before later travelling to a STANTA training camp in the east of England, where Swedish military personnel are delivering training to Ukrainian soldiers as part of Operation Interflex.

Meanwhile, on Thursday, Victoria and her husband donned their finest threads as they stepped out in London to attend The Royal Variety Performance with the Prince and Princess of Wales.

As for accessories, the royal spruced up her look with Toteme jewellery, a black leather clutch bag and a pair of black patent stilettos, also from Swedish fashion brand, Toteme.

Echoing his wife's sleek outfit, Prince Daniel looked oh-so-dapper in a double-breasted navy suit complete with black lapels. He finished off his look with a suave black bow tie and a pair of glossy black dress shoes.

Performing at the star-studded event were music legend Cher, pianist Lang Lang, Swedish pop star Zara Larsson, and the National Youth Choir as well as a Disney 100th anniversary performance with tunes from The Lion King, Aladdin, Hercules, Frozen, and Beauty and the Beast. McFly and Paloma Faith also featured in the line-up.

The show will be broadcast on ITV on Sunday 17 December.
