Has Princess Madeleine found an American sweetheart?

Princess Madeleine of Sweden arrived in New York a few days after she broke off her engagement to Jonas Bergstrom, who had cheated on her with a Norwegian handball player.  She appears to have found her Prince Charming, Christopher O'Neill, a financial adviser.  He is the son of New York socialite Eva O'Neill. 
Christopher is said to be a 36-year-old millionaire, who "dispenses financial advice to super wealthy clients."

For more details of this budding relationship, please see the article in the current issue of New York Magazine.

The final article is in Swedish, and features a brief video of the Princess and O'Neill at the Central Park Boathouse, at the bar.

It's all pure speculation, of course. Until the Princess goes up the aisle as her sister did last June, then I'll believe it. But then, I guess these reporters have to hold down a job, right.

Which leads me to... Marlene, who's your most reliable royal reporter (and not gossipmonger)?
From time to time there's been discussions on the various royal message boards about sources, etc. I like reading yoru blog because you don't take any BS from folks. Just askin'. Thanks.

They are certainly spending time together and going out on dates, but I do not think a wedding will take place anytime soon. He could be the transition boyfriend.

years and years of experience has allowed me to suss out what is good and what is crap. Most of what I read in the Daily Mail, for example, is crap these days - so much incorrect information and innuendo. I tend to prefer the more serious publications.
