Norway's Crown Princess Son to Face Trial on Rape and Other Charges in High-Profile Case
The eldest son of Norway's Crown Princess Mette-Marit Borg Høiby is set to go on trial on Tuesday on multiple charges, including rape, in a high-profile case that has been an embarrassment to the royal family.
Marius Borg Høiby, 30, has been accused of committing several crimes, including rape, assault, and harassment. The case has sparked widespread attention in Norway and beyond, with many calling for the royal family's involvement to be investigated.
According to reports, Borg Høiby was arrested in August last year after multiple women came forward alleging they had been subjected to non-consensual sex or other forms of misconduct by him. He was released on bail pending a trial that is expected to last several weeks.
The allegations against Borg Høiby have led to widespread criticism of the royal family's handling of the situation, with many questioning why Mette-Marit Borg Høiby did not take action sooner and why her son has been allowed to continue with his royal duties despite the serious allegations against him.
Borg Høiby's trial is set to begin on Tuesday at a court in Oslo, Norway. The case is expected to be highly publicized, with many expecting the royal family's involvement to come under scrutiny as well.
The trial has sparked an outpouring of support for the alleged victims, who have spoken out about their experiences and called for justice to be served. Many people have taken to social media to express their outrage at the allegations against Borg Høiby and the perceived lack of action by the royal family.

... I mean, I totally get why the alleged victims are coming forward and seeking justice - it's super important that people feel safe and heard 
... but at the same time, I don't wanna be a total hypocrite here and say that Mette-Marit Borg Høiby should've done more sooner 
... like, shouldn't she have been more supportive of her son from the start? But then again, what if she was trying to protect him or something? Like, maybe he's innocent and this is all just a big misunderstanding 
... and on the other hand, wouldn't it be super convenient if the royal family just covered this whole thing up and pretended everything was fine? 
Ugh, my brain hurts from all the conflicting thoughts! 
they're trying to play it cool but it's hard to when your prince is facing rape charges 
i mean, Mette-Marit should've taken action sooner, maybe even stepped down as Crown Princess if she knew her son was a serial rapist 
it's not like the royal family is above the law and we all know that 
it's like they're trying to downplay the severity of the allegations or something, but really it's just perpetuating a toxic culture of silence around rape 
the victims deserve justice and we need to be supporting them, not making excuses for the guy who hurt them 
who knows what'll come out in the evidence? 
... the fact that Marius was released on bail is also super concerning, it feels like he's still getting away with stuff 
. I'm sure the trial will be a long and grueling one for everyone involved, but hopefully justice will be served 
... fingers crossed the victims get the support they deserve 
. It's like, basic common sense to protect your kid from abuse and misconduct, you know?
. They deserve so much more than what they've been through. And yeah, this whole trial is gonna be a hot mess with the royal family's involvement 
.
I can only imagine how scary and overwhelming it must feel for those women who are going through this traumatic experience... to know that someone they trusted has been accused of doing something so horrific to them. 
. It's completely understandable why the public is so upset, especially when they see a member of the royal family involved in such serious allegations. The fact that Mette-Marit Borg Høiby didn't act sooner is really puzzling... and I'm sure it's causing her and Marius a lot of stress right now 
. But it's good to see so many people coming together to support the victims and demand justice 
. and to the victims in this case, i hope they find closure and justice soon
