    As a Norwegian of some age, this entire case was one of the most jarring news stories I’ve encountered.

    Imagine following the news in the early 2000s. Our crown prince found love among the (extremely) common people, and got married to a woman who had a small child. Royalist tightbutts are pissing themselves at the breach of tradition but the rest of the country is charmed by the heartwarming love affair.

    News plastered for months and months of of a couple in love, and Marius the cuutest tiny blonde litte boy barely out of diapers and being adorable everywhere. And it fades out.

    20-something years pass, and news are going on about something “Marius Høiby…”

    Omg! I remember him! He was the cutes- WHAT THE FUCK
