Norway’s royal family faces one of the most dramatic weeks in its modern history. Crown Princess Mette-Marit undergoes a successful double lung transplant after years of battling pulmonary fibrosis, while her eldest son, Marius Borg Høiby, begins a four-year prison sentence following his criminal conviction. We examine the extraordinary timing of the transplant, the surge in organ donor registrations across Norway, Marius’s emotional courtroom comments about his mother’s illness, Princess Ingrid Alexandra’s return from Australia, and a proposed constitutional change that could give the future queen a historic new role. Plus, a look at Prince Sverre Magnus and the next generation of the Norwegian monarchy.
