I have just a question : what is the natural color of Mette Marit's hair ? Her roots are always so dark that I was wondering if she was a real blond ?

Larzen · #22 05-20-2005, 10:30 AM

Here is some pictures of what I suppose is her natural colour prewedding, however as most blonds from that part of the country she comes from, she becomes naturally much blonder in the summer. Nowadays it is coloured too blond for my taste and also to seldom so you can often see her roots.

i also agree with larzen. she should die her hair more often as the roots are not really presentable :s

I know I sound like a newbie, but does Mette-marit's Son receive any titles even though Haakon is not his father?

No. Norway doesn't have a nobility, so there isn't really any titles to give.

Mette-Marit and Haakon's adress????

LaMinka · #28 07-25-2005, 07:48 PM

They live on Skagum in Asker i dont know very much about that. But the royal palace adress is
"Drammens veien 1"(i think it was that)

carlota · #29 07-27-2005, 03:47 PM

i think she doesnt have an adress by her own but if you write a letter addressed to her to the royal palace of oslo that should be fine. perhaps an informal thing would be to write her address of skaugum but i doubt many people do that.

there's a thread about royal official addresses of the palaces in the chit chat forum :)

I think this could be a good thread where people can post questions about Mette Marit, be it serious (her past, even though it's been beaten to death) to more informal stuff (favorite food, color etc) of course inappropriate stuff would not be allowed

maybe it's just me, I just don't know that much about her and would like to find out more. And maybe others have questions too and we can sort of help each other out.

Quote:

Crown Princess Mette-Marit is a daughter of now-divorced journalist Sven O. Høiby and Marit Tjessem. The crown princess has a sister and two elder brothers, and grew up in Kristiansand in the southern part of Norway. She spent many weekends and holidays were spent in the nearby valley of Setesdal and at the seaside, where she learned to sail. During her youth she was active in the local youth club Sletteheia, where she was also an activity leader. As a teenager she played a volleyball, qualifying as referee and coach.
After starting at Oddernes upper secondary school in Kristiansand, Mette-Marit spent six months at Wangaratta High School in Australia, as an exchange student. Some time thereafter, she attended Kristiansand Katedralskole, where she passed her final examinations in 1994. After another break from her studies, Mette-Marit attended Bjørknes Private School for a while, and then took examen philosophicum (the preliminary university examination) at Agder College.
By her own admission, Mette-Marit went through an unconventional phase before she met Crown Prince Haakon Magnus. As a part-time student, it took longer than usual to complete her high school education before going on to take preparatory university courses at Agder Regional College. She then worked for a year at a café in Oslo.

this is all that I got from wikipedia, I'm sure others can elaborate further if they have any other interesting tidbits!

There is also a profile of Mette-Marit on this site that was written for the 1905-2005 project that was done for all the Norwegian royals.

Mette-Marit may have taken courses related to, but she doesn't have a degree in Anthropology.
