Mette-Marit, Crown Princess of Norway Biography

Mette-Marit, Crown Princess of Norway is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on August 19, 1973 in Kristiansand, Vest-Agder, Norway. Mette-Marit, Crown Princess of Norway (born Mette-Marit Tjessem Høiby, [ˌmɛtːə ˈmɑ̀ːrɪt ˈçɛ̀səm ˈhœ̀ʏbʏ] , on 19 August 1973) is the wife of Crown Prince Haakon, heir apparent to the throne of Norway.

Her first official appearance as the intended bride of the Crown Prince was at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony at Oslo City Hall on 10 December 2000, following the announcement of the couple’s engagement on 1 December. At the press conference, Haakon said that he and Mette-Marit had been together for about one year. Haakon gave Mette-Marit the same engagement ring that his grandfather King Olav V and his father King Harald V had given to their fiancées.

The couple married on 25 August 2001 at the Oslo Cathedral. Upon her marriage, she acquired the title, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess of Norway. They now live outside Oslo at Skaugum estate.

During 2002 and 2003, the Crown Princess undertook development studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London, apparently without graduating. She was also accepted as an intern at NORAD, the Norwegian government’s development organization. Mette-Marit attended lectures at the faculties of arts and social sciences at the University of Oslo, but did not graduate.

When the engagement between Crown Prince Haakon and Mette-Marit was announced, public and media reaction was negative, with many Norwegians being “horrified” and feeling that the Crown Prince’s choice of partner was questionable; her lack of education, previous relationships with convicted felons and her socialization in a milieu “where drugs were readily available” were often cited by critics. At the time of their engagement, Mette-Marit was a single mother to a son named Marius Borg Høiby, born 13 January 1997 from her relationship with convicted felon Morten Borg. Her son caused a possible security risk in 2012 to the royal family by posting photos of the family’s whereabouts on the Internet. Mette-Marit is reported to be a social media user and it has been rumoured that the royal family may not follow the instruction to refrain from revealing personal information on social media. Marius Borg Høiby withdrew from public life and stopped representing the royal family in 2017 when he moved to the United States to attend an unspecified college.
