 Princess Désirée, Baroness Silfverschiöld, has left an inheritance worth $13,300,000, according to the Swedish newspaper Expressen.  The princess's estate included cash and securities, jewelry ($105,524), and an apartment in Santa Ponsa ($68,600).  Her late sister, Princess Birgitta, also lived in the same area.

The princess's inheritance will be shared by her two daughters, Baroness Christina Louise De Geer, 59, and Baroness Hélène Silfverschiöld, 57.  Her will excludes her eldest child, Baron Carl Silfverschiöld.  

Princess Désirée provided a statement in her will as Carl was "compensated well " in her husband's will, "regarding both his private property and the property he holds wth fiduciary rights."

Baron Niclas Silfverschiöld died in 2017.   Carl inherited his father's private fortune ($2,745,000) and the Koberg and Gåsevadsholm trust, which is worth $53 million.   After his death, Niclas's family trust was terminated and replaced with a limited liability company.  Baron Carl is the CEO of Kobergs och Gåsevadholms Fideikommiss AB and Koberg Förvaltning AB, which manages Koberg Castle and other properties.

After Baron Niclas's will was settled, his two daughters received a payout from the estate.

The Princess, who was the third sister of King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden, died on January 21st at the age of 87.
