Hello,

I read somewhere recently that a biographie about mette-marit is going to be released. Does anyone know if the book was translated in english and what it's called?

Thank you

Mette-Marit's official biography won't be published in Norwegian until next year, I believe. I don't know if it will be translated to English or not.

dont hold your breath! these sorts of things rarely get translated. there is actually a must better chance of it being translated into German as people there are pretty obsessed with royalty.

I had a brief look on the Dymocks and Angus and Robertson websites and all they have is books on British royals or Princess Mary. I hope Mette-Marits book is released in Australia or at least in the US or UK so we can order it online. Amazon.com looks like your best bet for Martha Louise's book as well.

According to the magazine Vanidades they say it will but not entirely sure if this could be considered definit info. So far they haven't disappointed me in their information.

Article from Aftenposten, 4. september, says that the biography will be delayed until March/April next year, as the author and the Crown Princess wanted more time together to go deeper into certain themes.

So it's an authorized biography then?

Yes. This one will be. The author has apparently been with her on solo-trips and her and Haakon on mutual trips.
