Last Saturday, January 14th 2017, Crown Princess Mette-Marit accompanied her husband Crown Prince Haakon to Ekeberghallen, a Oslo sports hall, for the final of the men's volleyball championship. And the heir to the Norwegian throne attended to give out the winning team.

Sitting in the stands beside her husband, the Crown Princess literally was in the game and had her moments during the match between the Viking team from Bergen, in the south of the country, and that of Tromso, in the north. Taken in pictures several times, the mother of 3 was watching the game with passion, while Haakon remained calm. It must be that the Crown Princess played volleyball in her youth, having also been a coach for this sport.

For this sporting event, which saw the victory of the players of Tromso, the Crown Princess Mette-Marit was dressed in a relax mode. Having opted for a casual outfit, she chose to put on a pair of jeans and a blue zipped sports jacket that she wore on a white sweater. She had put on a pair of sneakers and had worn her hair.

The day before, Mette-Marit had published an open letter on Kongehust(the Royal Court of Norway)'s website on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of her son Marius Borg Hoiby. Her love for the eldest of her three children, born before her meeting with Haakon from Norway, she asked some media to let him live a quiet life, while the young man made the choice to lead a life outside Of the public scene.
