My wife’s grandmother had a grudge against his older sister.
Which one, and why?
I’m not sure which it was, but I know that Ragnhilde did visit.
So many more questions now.
I probably don’t have many more answers, but I saw a picture of Princess Ragnhilde visiting, oh Astrid visited too.

Do you know why?
During ww2 her mother (my wife’s great granny) had a job as a secretary or office assistant or something at the Royal Norwegian Air Force base in exile in Toronto. In preparation for the royal Christmas visit great granny was tasked with buying a dress to be given as Christmas present to the princess. I guess she took it home to wrap it, and my wife’s grandmother saw it and was incensed that her mom had bought some stranger a nicer gift than her.

By my wife’s grandmother?
I’m sorry, I swiped reply on the wrong comment. Your grandmother is not spreading propaganda. I mean, that I know of.
Damnit, the wrong guy died. I guess there’s always next time.
80 something year old head of state dies
It isn’t Trump
Keep trying, Universe. You’ll get there eventually.
He was a wise and kind king. Loved by his people. The world is a bitt less without him. 😢
Oh no! A royalty died!
Anyway…
lmfao of course treating the upper class leeches the way they treat us gets downvoted.
Just for information for you and everyone else. This king is very special. He is called by the Norwegians grandpa, they feel very close to him. So I assume that is the reason for the down votes. I don’t think they feel the same for the rest of the Royal family, Harald is just very special for all of the Norwegians. I have heard he was a very kind and compassionate king. But it is better to ask a Norwegian about it.
Yes, most Norwegians loved the guy regardless of what they think about the monarchy.
No king is special, no king has ever deserved his crown, and he better had beed good to his people. I know I’d be too if all it took for my ass to get a crown was just to pop out of my mother.
It doesn’t really matter whether he deserves it or not if he moved the Norwegians then that is enough to be special for them. Not for you and I because we didn’t grow up with him, but to the ppl who did.
It is a fact that norwegians are mourning him national wide and it is a huge “event” for them, they care about him deeply.
I don’t understand how they feel, but I respect their feelings and wanted to share the information so that everyone can make an informed decision about how they interact with the news.

I declare holmgang for the throne
King Harald was going to the opening of the Johan Sverdrup oil field, until people pointed out that celebrating profiting by causing a mass-extinction probably isn’t that great.
