COPENHAGEN, Oct 13 — Following the death of her husband, King Harald V, in August, Queen Sonja of Norway is no longer officially listed as a member of the Royal House on the Norwegian royal court’s website, reported German Press Agency (dpa).
Instead, the 89-year-old queen’s portrait is sorted into the category “rest of the royal family”, Norwegian media reported on Monday.
Sonja’s son, the new King Haakon VIII and his wife, Queen Mette-Marit, along with 22-year-old Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra, are listed as the sole members of the Royal House.
“The Royal House includes the respective reigning monarch with their spouse, as well as the next in line to the throne of the subsequent generations and their spouses,” the website states.
“The term royal family also encompasses the rest of the monarch’s family.”
Joining Sonja in that category are her daughter Princess Märtha Louise, 55, and her 20-year-old grandson, Prince Sverre Magnus, who stands second in the line of succession after his sister Ingrid Alexandra.
