Crown Princess Mette Marit wore this ring in Norway today, September 9th. Does anybody know anything about this ring?

It is a very old ring. It was said, it is a gift from CP Haakon, after the birth of Sverre-Magnus. The 3 diamond symbolize her three children...

Thanks eya!

And to people here, who haven't clicked on the Instagram link, well, do it - and see three videos from the ''interview.''

Juwan asked The Crown Princess about everything from what books means to her, her favourite author - and her work with The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS).

--------------------

And today, The Crown Princess visited the event "Our Neighbourhood" at Dikemark Asylum-Centre in Asker municipality (where Skaugum is situated).

''Our Neighborhood'' is the name of a series of festivals organized by ''Oslo World'' (read about them in English here) on Asylum-Centres around Norway. Through these festivals, they want to create experiences about music, culture and food and use them to strengthen the ties between asylum-seekers and those living in the neighborhood.

As one can see, The Crown Princess did what she does best, being out with ordinary people.
And no, I'm not saying that just because she's ill..
Have I criticized her in the past? Yes, but I've also praised her for her warm and folksy personality, long before we got the news about her illness on October 24th.

Mette Marit looks so much happier and more relaxed these days. Having a diagnosis is half the battle, sharing it with the people of the country has made everyone more sympathetic and appreciative of everything she does. She and her family look ready for Christmas.

Yes, but to me (who sees her a lot on television and stuff), she's always looked ''happy and relaxed.'' - With the exception of when she gets questions from the media about Marius, because then she has a tendency to become quite grumpy.

I have always thought that MM was a very discreet and graceful woman, her tendency to wear LHOTP gala wear notwithstanding.
