Like every year on May 17th, the date of the national day in Norway, heir to the crown Crown Prince Haakon and his wife Crown Princess Mette-Marit and their two children, emerged in the early morning at the door of their residence Skaugum, located in the suburb of Oslo to attend the school children parade and receive their bouquets. In traditional dress, the royal couple was accompanied by their daughter Princess Ingrid Alexandra, 12, and their son Prince Sverre Magnus, 10, and one of their labradoodle breed dogs. Milly Kakao,

However, this year, Marius Borg Hoiby, the eldest son of the Crown Princess was born before his marriage before Haakon, played notably absent. The Norwegian press points out that the handsome young man of 19 preferred to be discreet in the media eye because he needs to calm before writing his final exams. And, given its physical and some 30,000 subscribers to his Instagram account, you can expect that each of his official appearances provokes reactions in the tabloids as well as on the canvas.

After the first act, Mette-Marit, Haakon and their two children joined at 10.30am King Harald V and Queen Sonja for Act 2 of the day: the appearance on the balcony of the Royal Palace in Oslo, again traditional dress for women but in tails and top hat for men.

This year the weather was in the game. Like her mother and her grandmother, Princess Ingrid Alexandra little laced at times sunglasses. Featuring black glasses, they have not failed to give him an air of star in the Cannes festival period.
