Swedish Royal Court spokeswoman Annika Sonnerberg said Victoria is expected to give birth sometime in March. She said "the entire royal family is overjoyed for the couple."

The court said no changes are expected to be made to the princess's schedule for 2011.

Victoria, who is first in line for the Swedish throne, married her private gym instructor, Daniel Westling, 37, in a lavish Stockholm ceremony in June 2010.
