Crown Prince Gustaf of Sweden later became King Gustaf VI Adolf ofj Sweden. When married to Princess Margeret of Cannaught, he was Crown Prince , Reign: 1950-1973. He was Crown Prince for forty-three years before ascending the throne. When Gustav died in 1973 the crown passed to his grandson, his eldest son having been killed in a plane crash in 1947 and his second son being as yet unmarried and thus unlikely to produce an heir. King Carl XVI ascended the throne of the Swedes, the Goths and the Wends amid much speculstion that he would prove to be the last of Sweden's monarchs. Carl has 4 lively and glamorous sisters: Princesses Margaretha, Birgitta, Desiree and Christine.
