Germany uncovers Princess Mette-Marit's big secret: Everyone is excited

Princess Mette-Marit reappears publicly and many notice her evident change in attitude

The German press has uncovered a secret about Princess Mette-Marit that has managed to move more than one person. Despite the scandals she has been involved in over the past few months and her illness, she has decided not to neglect her institutional commitments.

There is no doubt that the wife of Prince Haakon of Norway is going through one of the worst moments of her life. Her delicate health condition has been compounded by various controversies, including those related to her son Marius Borg.

A delicate situation that has been reflected in her demeanor. So much so that during her recent public appearances, we have seen Princess Mette-Marit very serious and uncomfortable when speaking to the media. She has even been forced to cancel some official commitments.

However, despite the chronic pulmonary fibrosis she suffers from, Haakon of Norway's wife has tried to show that she is gradually recovering from these blows. Proof of this is what happened just a few days ago.

Last Monday, May 5, Princess Mette-Marit reappeared completely renewed, something that did not go unnoticed among the rest of the citizens.

First, she attended the opening of the European Conference in Kristiansand, Norway. But just a few hours later, she was seen at the Kristiansand International Children's Festival.

An unexpected piece of information about Princess Mette-Marit comes to light that has managed to shock more than one person

As expected, Princess Mette-Marit's last two appearances have caught everyone's attention. Especially because of her positive expression and approachable attitude.

During both events, Prince Haakon of Norway's wife was very smiling and relaxed. So much so that she had no qualms about posing alone before the media. Additionally, her interaction with the children at the festival was especially warm.

Meanwhile, the German media outlet Bunte has reacted with skepticism, as it considers that Princess Mette-Marit's new attitude might be somewhat forced:

"After the scandal surrounding her eldest son Marius Borg Høiby and the news about the worsening of her pulmonary fibrosis, Mette-Marit now wants to show everyone that she is fine."

However, the magazine believes it is important to highlight that Haakon of Norway's wife attended two events in a single day, especially after several notable absences.

From the Royal House, however, they have emphasized the importance these events have for her. Princess Mette-Marit is the mother of three children and has been a patron of the children's festival since 2006. Therefore, her commitment to the children and her city is something she has not wanted to abandon.
