Swedish King Carl XVI Gustaf has been involved in a car crash, but is not hurt, the royal palace says.

The king was being driven to an airport in Stockholm on Wednesday morning when the collision took place, palace spokeswoman Annika Sonnerberg said.

The car was badly damaged but the king was uninjured and continued his journey in another car, local media said. There have been no reports of other injuries.

The role of king in Sweden is purely ceremonial.

Margaretha Thorgren, a press officer at the royal palace, told local media that the king was “doing well” under the circumstances, BBC informs.
