What’s it all about? Norwegian Crown Princess Mette-Marit (50) has had a difficult year: it was only announced on Wednesday that the royal had contracted Corona for the second time. The Norwegian royal family is very worried Mette Marit has been suffering from severe pulmonary fibrosis for years and the infection therefore poses a high risk. That’s why she had to cancel a special date: the Norwegian royals are posing for this year’s Christmas card – but without one Mette Marit!
On the official Instagram account of the Norwegian royal family, royal fans are enjoying this year’s Christmas greetings – but there is no trace of the 50-year-old. “Merry Christmas to everyone from the Royal Family! This year’s Christmas photo was taken in the Kongssetra at Voksenkollen in Oslo. Unfortunately, the Crown Princess was unable to take part due to a Covid illness,” it says under the portrait.
Had to just a few days ago Mette Marit already skipped an appointment. She was actually supposed to attend a church service with her husband Crown Prince Haakon (50) – but the heir to the throne appeared without his loved one. “She’s fine,” he assured the photographers.
