Crown Prince Haakon is in Paris during the Olympics and visited the Norwegian athletes on Wednesday. He was then asked about the charges against his stepson Marius Borg Høiby, writes TV 2 , VG and NRK.
– It is a serious matter when the police are involved as they are. At the same time, it is not right for me to enter into the matter now, I think, said the crown prince.
He did not want to answer how Crown Princess Mette-Marit and the rest of the family take the matter.
Characterized by the case
– We are of course concerned that all parties in the case are well taken care of, and then we can take one day at a time, said the crown prince.
One of the journalists asked if the crown prince is able to enjoy himself in Paris despite the incident.
– It is clear that the matter affects me as well, but I am here to cheer on our team in the Olympics, and there are fantastic achievements here, he replied.
Crown Princess Mette-Marit was also supposed to travel to Paris with the Crown Prince, but has postponed the trip. It is not certain that she will travel down, according to the crown prince.
– As in all other families, it is important to be there, he said.
Responded to an incident of violence
Borg Høiby is Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s son from before she married the Crown Prince. He is the older brother of Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magnus.
