Norway celebrates its big day amid the absence of Ingrid Alexandra and the fragility of Mette-Marit
The National Day of Norway has left a bittersweet image this year for the royal family. While the traditional May 17 celebrations were taking place in Oslo, Princess Ingrid Alexandra commemorated the date more than 15,000 kilometers from home, from Australia, where she is currently pursuing her university studies. Her message from Sydney, broadcast by the Norwegian Royal House, quickly became one of the most talked-about moments of the day.
