While King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia enjoyed a snow-covered break in Jämtland County, Sweden's future queen Crown Princess Victoria reportedly flew under the radar to a Spanish island with her family.

The royal, 46, and her husband, Prince Daniel, 50, and their two children, Princess Estelle, 12, and Prince Oscar, eight, spent the Easter break in Palma, Mallorca.

According to HELLO!'s sister publication, HOLA! the family-of-four had lunch at the Mar de Nudos restaurant on Monday. The open-air venue, overlooking the marina, offers a fusion of Mediterranean and Japanese dishes.

Victoria and Daniel are set to return to their royal duties on Monday 8 April when they will attend a diplomatic reception with the king and queen.

Their children, who attend Campus Manilla on Royal Djurgården in Stockholm, usually appear with their parents at major royal events throughout the year.

Estelle and Oscar joined Victoria and Daniel on the Crown Princess' name day at the Royal Palace on 12 March.

Proud mum Victoria was seen putting her arm around her daughter Estelle during one sweet moment as the family watched the ceremony in the palace courtyard.

Like Crown Princes Victoria, Estelle is a future queen of Sweden and she is the first female in Swedish history to be born with a right to inherit the crown that cannot be superseded by the birth of a male heir, as well as the first person in Swedish history to be born of a female heir apparent.
