      To be fair, he doesn’t have a title or any official position of power. His mother already had him when she met and later married the crown prince of Norway. But everyone in Norway knows who he is and he’s definitely very privileged, so he may have abused that fact…

        The royals are quite decent and cool. I’m in principle for getting rid of the monarchy, but this gang is so chill I’m ok with not making a fuss. Except for this shitstain. And the crown prince’s sister. And her charlatan husband. In fact, only the hereditary bloodline is good. It’s almost like some divine magic, or that they got all the good attention and the others have useless sibling syndrome.

        Heh a royal patchwork family then. I guess as a non blood relative to the crown prince he wouldn’t be in the line of succession?

      I don’t think he really has a position of power. And it could well be that this costs him the chance for the crown.

        He has no ties at all into royalty. He can never be royalty unless he forms an army and goes to war for the Crown or something.

        I don’t think he ever actually had a chance at the crown; He was born before his mother married the crown prince. His younger siblings would have a potential claim since they’re the prince’s kids, but he wouldn’t any claim since he’s not the prince’s child. He’s even excluded from some of the royal portraits.
