Crown Prince Haakon has cancelled Tuesday’s scheduled reception for consuls at the Royal Palace. The change, first reported by VG, is due to the Crown Prince’s intention to adjust his schedule to spend more time with Crown Princess Mette-Marit. Princess Mette-Marit is battling a serious lung illness and is currently on the waiting list for a lung transplant. The palace confirmed the adjustment is intended to allow the Crown Prince to provide increased support during this challenging time. Further adjustments to the Crown Prince’s program are anticipated as the Princess’s health situation evolves. This decision underscores the royal family’s focus on prioritizing Princess Mette-Marit’s well-being.
