Does she still live in the palace? No. She lives in a private home in Oslo. She’s a royal, but she pays her own light bills (probably). Is she close to the King? Very. They grew up together during World War II, so they have that unbreakable sibling bond.
Why isn’t she more famous? Because she doesn’t want to be. In a world of Instagram royals, she’s the anti-influencer. No drama. No scandals. Just class, kids, and a husband who won an Olympic medal.
So, there you have it. Princess Astrid: 93, widowed, mother of five, and the coolest royal you’ve never heard of. Next time you’re at a party, drop her name. Watch them be impressed. You’re welcome.
