Why Mette-Marit called her son Marius Borg’s girlfriend after being arrested for assault

Marius Borg has become the nightmare of the Norwegian Royal Family. The eldest son of Mette-Marit, wife of Prince Haakon, is once again in the headlines. This time, for money. His girlfriend is demanding it after her flat in Oslo was seriously damaged.

Two police arrests (on 4 August and 10 September), allegations of assault by his girlfriend, of violating a restraining order and a knife stuck in a wall, according to reports in the Norwegian press: the scandal is hot on his heels.

After the first arrest, Marius was also reported by his girlfriend for the damage caused in their house. Not only the wall, but also a broken lamp. Plus everything that had to be repaired and the bill from the cleaning company that took charge of putting the house in order. Total expenses: 25,500 euros, according to the publication Weekwhich cites Norwegian channel TV2 Norge as its source. The plaintiff is asking the 27-year-old to pay the costs.

We have also learned that the wife of the heir to the throne contacted the victim to express her concern and to prevent the damage that this violent episode could cause to the crown.

Marius has become the torment of the family. At 27 years old, he has already been involved in several scandals, such as a prison sentence for drug trafficking, a national security scandal for revealing images of the Royal Family, or a crime against road safety just a few months ago.
