Crown Princess Mette-Marit
She completes one-month lung rehabilitation
Crown Princess Mette-Marit goes in Rehabilitation in October because of her lung disease. Her royal duties mostly rest.
A few weeks ago, the Norwegian royal family announced that Crown Princess Mette-Marit (52) will not travel to the USA with her husband, Crown Prince Haakon (52). As if their chronic lung disease was given. Now the palace has announced that Mette-Marit will expose its royal duties in the coming month and will concentrate entirely on treatment and health.
A month of lung rehab for the crown princess
Mette-Marit will complete a one-month lung rehabilitation in Norway in October, according to an official announcement by the royal family. With a few exceptions, the 52-year-old will let her royal duties rest during this time. However, it will take part in the dinner for the members of the Norwegian parliament in the Royal Castle on October 23. In November, Mette-Marit is to return to her full duties.
Her husband Crown Prince Haakon pays a visit to the United States in a few weeks. The occasion is the 200th anniversary of the first Norwegian emigration to America.
“The crown princess is currently recommended not to carry out a trip to the USA due to its chronic lung disease,” said the palace at the beginning of the month. It was originally planned that the crown prince couple will travel together to Iowa, Minnesota and New York to celebrate the historical anniversary.
Difficult times for the Norwegian royal family
For the Norwegian royal family, Mette-Marit’s rehabilitation stay and failure for their royal duties fall into an already turbulent time. Mette-Marit’s son from first marriage, Marius Borg Høiby (28), is currently at the center of a large scandal. After months of police investigations, the stepson of Crown Prince Haakon was recently charged with 32 points. The most serious allegations affect four rapes.
The trial against Marius Borg Høiby is scheduled for the period between February 3 and March 13, 2026 with a total of 24 days of negotiations. Høiby denies the most serious charges, in particular the allegations of rape.
For Mette-Marit, who has been fighting with her lung fibrosis for years, the scandal for her son means an additional burden. The 52-year-old has been suffering from the chronic illness since 2018, which causes progressive scarring of the lungs and repeatedly limits its public appearances.
