Creepy Package Sent to Princess Madeleine

Being in the public eye is not always so glamorous. Just ask Sweden’s Princess Madeleine, whom on Wednesday, had a mysterious package sent to her that set off a bomb scare in New York City.

The box arrived at New York’s World Childhood Foundation’s office in midtown Manhattan. Workers feared the package was a bomb and called the police. When a bomb squad responded, no bomb was found in the box.

However, it did contain mixed cassette tapes, underwear, wires connected to nothing, love letters and a marriage proposal to the Princess.

“The royal family does get unusual mail from time to time, but it is not common,” said Jenny Alexandersson of Aftonbladet. “There are plenty of crazy fans out there.”

Madeleine was not at the Foundation’s offices when the package arrived.

Unfortunately for the obsessed fan, the Princess announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend, Jonas Bergstrom back in August.

Police say they are investigating the case. It is not known if the person ever sent anything else to Madeleine.
