Princess Madeleine of Sweden stepped out in Miami this week. The Swedish royal, who is honorary deputy co-chair of the World Childhood Foundation, met with Miami Mayor Francis Suarez on Tuesday, Jan. 25.
“Excited to meet with Mayor @francissuarez today, and share the Care Coin in Miami, our new Champion for Children City,” the non-profit organization World Childhood Foundation USA wrote alongside a photo from the meeting.
Madeleine, who moved to Florida with her husband Christopher O’Neill and their three kids—Princess Leonore, Prince Nicolas and Princess Adrienne—in 2018, was joined by the executive director of World Childhood Foundation USA, Nicole Epps. Nicole shared another picture from the Princess’ meeting with the mayor on her personal page.
Madeleine looked business chic for the outing wearing an ivory double-breasted blazer teamed with beige trousers. The Princess’ mother, Queen Silvia, founded the World Childhood Foundation in 1999. The organization’s mission is to “inspire, promote and develop solutions to end sexual abuse, exploitation, and violence against children.”

Back in 2016, Madeleine penned a post for TIME titled “Why I’m Campaigning to End Child Sex Abuse.” She wrote, “In 1999, my mother decided to use her voice to speak about children’s rights and founded the World Childhood Foundation, which has since funded more than 1,000 projects in 20 countries. I have always admired my mother’s courage and aim to continue her work in combatting child sexual abuse. Now as a mother of two, I am even more determined to help create a world free from sexual abuse for all children in our lifetime.
“But it is not our children’s obligation to keep themselves safe. We, as adults, have an obligation to ensure that our children are surrounded by child protectors,” Madeleine continued. “Child sexual abuse thrives in silence. The first step in combatting sexual abuse is removing the stigma from discussing the abuse, which requires learning the facts, talking about it with our children and investing in prevention.”
