Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia of Sweden Celebrate Two Major Milestones on the Same Day

Sweden's Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia christened their four-month-old daughter Princess Ines on June 13.
June 13 also doubles as the couple's milestone 10th wedding anniversary.
Ines is the youngest of four children born to the Duke and Duchess of Värmland, who also are parents to three sons.The Swedish royal family turned out for a special occasion today—the christening of Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia's youngest child and only daughter, Princess Ines, who was born in February.
Ines's christening on June 13 also doubled as another special occasion for Carl Philip and Sofia: it marked their milestone 10th wedding anniversary. Since marrying in 2015, the couple have welcomed three sons and, at last, their baby girl on February 7.
The christening Friday took place at Drottningholm Palace Chapel, and Carl Philip's parents King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia were in attendance, as were Carl Philip's sisters—older sister Crown Princess Victoria and younger sister Princess Madeleine, who just celebrated her 43rd birthday on June 10. While Sofia was no doubt a proud mom as her daughter was christened, future queen Victoria also beamed with pride as her eldest daughter and heir to the throne Princess Estelle was named as one of Ines's five godparents. This choice was especially poignant, as Carl Philip is one of Estelle's godparents.
While Silvia and Victoria chose floral patterns for the christening Friday, Sofia chose bold, bright yellow, while Carl Philip was dressed in military uniform. The couple—who are also known as the Duke and Duchess of Värmland—are also parents to sons Prince Alexander, 9, Prince Gabriel, 7, and Prince Julian, 4.
After her February birth, Ines made her public debut on April 30 for the Armed Forces celebration commemorating King Carl XVI Gustaf's 79th birthday, where the infant was carried out onto the balcony of the Royal Palace in Stockholm. Ines's full name is Ines Marie Lilian Silvia, with the name Marie honoring Sofia's mother and the name Silvia, of course, an homage to Carl Philip's mother, the Queen.
Ahead of Ines's christening on June 13, on June 12 Carl Philip and Sofia shared never-before-seen images from their wedding a decade ago, writing alongside the images, 'Tomorrow we celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. On June 13, 2015, we got married. We are so grateful for the joy and warmth that met us that day and has continued throughout these 10 years. Now we have four wonderful children, and tomorrow we are christening our little Ines.'
A reception and private lunch followed Ines's christening Friday to close the happy day.

The ending of '28 Years Later' explained and how it sets up the sequel, 'The Bone Temple'

Fans waited nearly 20 years for " 28 Years Later" — and its cliffhanger ending will likely leave them with more questions than answers. The film is set three decades on from when the Rage Virus escaped from a lab in Britain, causing the infected to become mindless and bloodthirsty zombie-like killers. It is essentially a coming of age story about a 12-year-old named Spike, who lives on an island that is cut off from the mainland during high tide, which protects his community from the infected. The opening scene of "28 Years Later" shows the infected attacking a young boy named Jimmy at the start of the outbreak. It then jumps forward to Spike's father, Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), taking him hunting on the mainland as a rite of passage. They leave behind Spike's mother, Isla (Jodie Comer), who is bed-bound by a mystery illness that causes amnesia. Here's the ending explained, and how it sets up the sequel "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple." "28 Years Later" follows Spike as he tries to save his mother. After Spike spots a fire in the distance while on the mainland, Jamie tells him of a man called Doctor Kelson (Ralph Fiennes), whom he saw nonchalantly burning hundreds of bodies when he was younger. He warns Spike of how dangerous even the uninfected can be. However, Spike ignores him and decides to sneak Isla onto the mainland in the hopes the doctor can cure her. He creates a distraction by burning a general store and leaving during low tide. On the mainland, Spike and Isla meet Eric (Edvin Ryding), a Swedish NATO soldier whose squad washed up in England after their boat sank. He saves them from a number of infected, but threatens to kill them when Isla helps a pregnant infected woman give birth to an uninfected baby. However, he's stopped by a variant of the infected called an Alpha, who rips Eric's head and spine off his body. As they escape, Kelson suddenly appears and drugs the Alpha (Chi Lewis-Parry) with a blowdart, and provides Spike, Isla, and the baby with sanctuary in an area where he has built huge towers out of bones and skulls. He calls it the "Memento Mori," Latin for "Remember you die." In one of the film's quieter moments, he diagnoses Isla with cancer, which has spread to her brain. This explains her memory loss and extreme headaches. She chooses to let Kelson euthanize her and she tells Spike that she'll always be with him. She walks off into the darkness with Kelson, and he returns with her skull. In a heartbreaking moment, he lets Spike pick a spot in the Memento Mori to place it, and he climbs to the top of the tower, positioning her skull so that she's forever looking out onto the world. After Isla's death, Spike embraces life on the mainland. The next morning, Spike treks back to the island and leaves the baby outside the gate with a note explaining that she isn't infected, and that he's named her Isla. In a moment of rage and grief, Jamie races out to the sea at high tide to try to find Spike, but he has already disappeared. Spike's decision to leave the safety of the isolated island to explore the mainland alone appears to symbolize that he's left his childhood behind. But a group of infected soon find him while he's cooking fish, and he flees his camping spot. In the film's most surprising moment, he's saved by a man in a bright purple tracksuit and gold jewelry who calls himself Jimmy (Jack O'Connell). Most importantly, he's the boy who survived the film's savage opening. Jimmy is joined by several other young people with long blond hair and matching, colorful tracksuits who kill the infected with large spears. Their appearance is a stark contrast to Spike and the other island survivors, who are haggard. The group's look is reminiscent of Jimmy Savile. The once hugely popular British television presenter who after his death in 2011 was revealed to be a prolific sexual abuser of children and adults. It's possible that in the universe of the horror franchise, Savile's crimes were never uncovered. Jimmy asks Spike if he'd like to go with him, and the film ends there. The scene sets the stage for the sequel, "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple," which arrives in theaters on January 16, 2026.

Acne Studios Launches Its First Permanent Gallery in Paris

Summary In the lead-up to Paris Fashion Week,Acne Studioshas announced the opening of Acne Paper Palais Royal, its first permanent gallery space. Nestled between the storied arcades of Palais Royal in Paris, the new venue ushers in a new era for the Swedish house, deepening its presence in art, design and publishing. Following the recent collaborative capsule and in-store exhibition with artistJonathan Lyndon Chase, and the revival ofAcne Paperin 2021, this announcement comes as a natural next step for the Jonny Johansson-led label, who's legacy is inextricable with conceptual photography and off-body artistry. Named after the brand's semi-annual publication, much like Acne Paper, the gallery will serve as an interdisciplinary forum for emerging and established voices making waves in their respective lanes. The space, which overlooks the lush garden complex, will host a range of rotating exhibitions, artist talks and book launches, furthering Acne Studios' commitment to creativity at large. Acne Paper Palais Royal will open on June 26 with a solo exhibition by Dutch fashion and fine arts photographerPaul Kooiker, whose surreal captures recently graced the pages of the latestGoldenedition. The inaugural show, titled2025, will present 42 portraits of students at the Gerri Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. With a picture day-esque flair, the images capture the uncertain tension of the present often tied to life milestones. The gallery not only affirms the brand's 'porous,' cross-cultural ethos, but pays tribute the early days of ACNE, the design and film-focused creative collective that gave rise to the house that so many know and love today. Since its founding in 1996, Acne Studios has treated fashion as just one part of a wider creative language, and with this space comes a new chapter, steadfast and true to that mission.
