Norway's crown princess asks media to leave eldest son alone

Crown Prince Haakon of Norway and Crown Princess Mette-Marit married in 2001

Crown Princess Mette-Marit has asked Norwegian media to leave her eldest son alone.

Mette-Marit said Marius Borg Hoiby, her son from a previous relationship who has no royal title or official duties, has in recent years "been exposed to pressure" from some media "that I don't feel is worthy of them".
