The birthday of Norwegian princess Ingrid Alexandra, who turned 18 on January 21, will be celebrated on June 16 and 17. Due to the corona measures, the daughter of Crown Prince Haakon and his wife Mette-Marit had to keep her birthday small in January. On Thursday, June 16, King Harald and Queen Sonja are organizing a gala dinner at the Palace in Oslo in honor of their granddaughter’s birthday, attended by the Dutch royal couple and Princess Amalia. A day later, the Norwegian government will also hold a party for Ingrid Alexandra.

The trip to Norway is the second official task for Princess Amalia, who herself turned 18 on December 7. A day later, the princess was introduced to the Council of State by her father, King Willem-Alexander: her first official task as princess.
It is not entirely against expectations that Amalia visits Ingrid Alexandra, because heirs to the throne and monarchs often spend time with their peers. King Willem-Alexander (55) is friends with the Swedish Crown Princess Victoria (44), who is also Amalia’s godmother. The Dutch king is also friends with the Danish crown prince Frederik (54) and with the Spanish royal couple Felipe (54) and Letizia (49).
