Swedish Prince Carl Philip gets punched in the face
Sweden's Prince Carl Philip, 33, was attacked outside a nightclub in the southern French city of Cannes this weekend. The prince was not seriously hurt, the royal palace announced on Sunday.
The prince, third in line to the throne, "was together with friends outside a club in Cannes, France, in the early hours of August 11" when he "was attacked, unprovoked, by a person unknown to the prince and his party," a statement from the palace said.
"The prince is fine, under the circumstances, and was not injured in the incident," it said.
Palace spokesman Bertil Ternert told reporters the palace had not yet decided whether charges would be pressed and said it was looking into the matter.
According to Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet, the incident took place at the Baoli nightclub around 3:00 am (0100 GMT), when a crowd surrounded the royal and a man punched him in the back of the head.
The prince is holidaying on the Riviera with his girlfriend, Sofia Hellqvist, it said.

eeeew at his ratchet gf
she's a reality star/nude model altho she claims now to be a "calender girl" only disregarding all her nude photos/light bondage photos. The media in Sweden has been heavily filtered in order to have nothing negative about her coming out.
Business 101 says that you should probably have two separate accounts if you don't want people accusing you of fraud.
Royals have their own PR machine that are much better than any hollywood pr
I wasn't aware of the situation with Daniel. I think that Daniel now really pulls his weight. I think CG is useless and a jerk and I think CP and Madde are lazy and overly entitled. The entire family is mess. The fact that the media has a field day with everything else is why I'm little taken back by them sugar coating sofia, I'm not sure if it's cause she's CP's gf or what.
