Iltasanomat quotes Expressen's article:
Victoria and the king organized the party on Monday together. Ulrika Näsholm from the press department didn't say very much about the party:
"It is totally private. They are celebrating the queen's birthday with a dinner".
The guests arrived at seven in the evening. The whole royal family was present, also Estelle, according to Expressen she arrived with queen Silvia.
Of course attended Victoria, Daniel, Madeleine, Chris and Carl Philip, but Sofia Hellqvist wasn't there. Ulrika Näsholm told why Sofia didn't attend: "She is at her home in Älvdalen and spends Christmas with her family".
Sofia had gone to her family on Sunday.
Among the guests yesterday were princess Chrstina, Tord Magnuson, Oscar and Emma Magnuson, Gustaf and Vicky Magnuson and Patrick and Maline Sommerlath.
Madeleine and Chris had planned to go to spend Christmas with Chris' family in London, but they decided to stay in Stockholm.
Näsholm confirms: "The princess and her husband will spend the whole Christmas in Sweden and celebrate with the family".

I would not trust a word of what mr Lindwall writes - usually it´s only stuff he makes up and is totally wrong, imo he´s the worst royal reporters in Sweden and certainly doesn´t help the monarchy...Wow! those were some *very* candid remarks by this mr Lindwall.. very surprised that this was made public (i'm referring to things like that she didn't speak to the king for a while).
Svensk Damtidning writes about the surprise party the king held for the Queen on 20th December after the Swedish Academy's formal gathering.
The king had made wishes to Ingemar Thorell, who was responsible of the music at the party. The king had wished "Gärdeby gånglåt" and "Thats what friends are for". The king held a very loving speech to the queen, one guest tells that it was magnificent. The queen spoke about their love.
Victoria and Beate Middleschulte (a daughter of Silvia's friend) held speeches too. And then it was disco at the palace until early hours in the morning.
According to SvenskDam Chris was ill and he went home straight after the Academy's formal gathering and didn't attend at the party at all.
At 23rd December a choir from the music school Lilla Academien sang for the queen at Drottningholm and in the evening there was a party for the queen's closest.
