Mette-Marit, Crown Princess of Norway celebrates her round! Almost a month after the 50th birthday of her husband, Crown Prince Haakon of Norway, she too has now reached half a century.
It’s a wonderful idea to pop the corks together: the royal birthday party is taking place in the castle on August 25th. By the way, this is also the couple’s 22nd wedding anniversary…
Three reasons to crank up the music!

Mette-Marit is really looking forward to it. She told business daily Dagens Naeringsliv: “When you turn 50, you realize that life is not infinite. There is something good about old age, it conveys security. It doesn’t matter that much anymore what people think of me. Other things are more important.”
Other things – like her husband Haakon. Mette-Marit admits in the interview that she had to deal with “some challenges” when she met the crown prince. Exactly what she means by that is unclear.
However, the 50-year-old is known for her wild party past. “It was good that I got to know Haakon.” HE got his wife out of the misery back then.

And even now it is the crown prince who always stands by his Mette-Marit. In 2018 she received a shock diagnosis: she suffers from pulmonary fibrosis, a chronic inflammation of the lungs.
“The Crown Princess has undergone extensive physical examinations and has been diagnosed with an unusual form of pulmonary fibrosis,” the royal court said at the time.

The result: Mette-Marit withdrew more and more from the public eye and was restricted in her work. “This will be the case during treatment and at times when the disease is noticeable,” said the crown princess bravely. So also in recent times.

Severe storms have raged in southern Norway in recent weeks. The result: dangerous flooding. State of emergency. Thousands of people had to be evacuated. After Queen Sonja (85), King Harald (86) and Haakon had already visited the affected families about a week ago, even Mette-Marit was there on Thursday!
She visited the affected areas in the municipalities of Hole, Ringerike and Søndre Land and spoke to the people who were evacuated to hotels, among other things.
