Princess Mette-Marit speaks openly for the first time about the impending trial against her oldest son Marius Borg Høiby (29). The serious allegations - rape, violence, and drug use - are putting enormous pressure on the Crown Princess and the royal house. How does she react to the public criticism and what price does a mother pay in this role? Read on to learn the full story!

The Trial Draws Near

The proceedings against Marius are soon to begin in Oslo. Mette-Marit (52) is visibly under stress: fear, pressure, and self-doubt accompany her during this difficult time. Her husband, Prince Haakon (52), is by her side.

Parental Criticism and Self-Blame

The princess defends herself against allegations that she and Haakon did not take the situation seriously: "That's unfair," she says, emphasizing that they sought professional help. At the same time, she admits that the serious allegations against her own child inevitably trigger a lot of self-blame.
