The truth was that his plans had been interrupted, or at least his official agenda, because he was enjoying his summer vacation with his family, so he didn’t have to cancel it. some of his official commitments. And this time she will be able to recover to get ready for her state trip to England, a trip she will be taking with her husband, Prince Haakon, who is heir to the Norwegian crown.

It will be September 14th when he sets the direction for this goal, so hopefully by then fully recovered. And she is not the first in the Norwegian Royal Family to be infected, as her daughter Ingrid Alexandra has passed her, her husband as well and her father-in-law, King Harald, who was very worried about her health problems before.

Mette-Marit’s health is under control, but her condition is worrying, due to problems before the contagion. It must be remembered that during the first months the pandemic reduces its official agenda to a minimum, to reduce the risk of transmission because it is one of the highest risk groups. It was in 2018 when he was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, an illness that forced him to limit his commitments at the time.

Very busy schedule

And beyond this respiratory disease we must add ‘crystal syndrome’, something that had been diagnosed a year earlier and which was characterized by a lot of dizziness and vertigo, something that also keep it away of his country’s public life. Meanwhile, she will continue to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere during her vacation more than she should, because in the past few months she and the rest of the family they have very busy schedules, as they celebrated Ingrid Alexandra’s coming of age,

who after his father Haakon, will inherit the throne.
