Norwegian Royal Tied to Shocking Assault Allegations

In a stunning development that’s sending shockwaves through Norway and beyond, Marius Borg Høiby—the eldest son of Crown Princess Mette-Marit—has been formally charged with multiple counts of rape and sexual assault.

The 28-year-old, once affectionately nicknamed “Little Marius” by the public, is now at the center of a serious legal storm. According to Oslo police, the charges involve a “double-digit number” of alleged victims. The accusations stem from a series of incidents that surfaced throughout 2024, leading to multiple arrests and a growing investigation.

“We cannot confirm the exact number, but it’s substantial,” said Oslo Police Attorney Andreas Kruszewski, underlining the gravity of the situation.

Høiby, who has previously been open about his struggles with drug addiction—particularly cocaine—now faces a list of charges that include:

* One count of rape involving intercourse
* Two counts of rape without intercourse
* Four counts of sexual assault
* Two charges related to physical violence

Investigators have reportedly gathered substantial evidence, including testimonies and digital communications like text messages.

His legal representative, Petar Sekulic, has stated that Høiby is fully cooperating with authorities. “He’s taking these accusations very seriously,” Sekulic said, while also noting that Høiby denies wrongdoing in most of the cases, especially those involving claims of sexual violence.

Marius, though not officially a royal titleholder, grew up within the royal household alongside Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magnus, children of Crown Prince Haakon and Princess Mette-Marit. He now lives separately but remains under intense public scrutiny due to his royal connections.

As the case unfolds, the Norwegian public and royal watchers around the world await further details on what could become one of the most controversial legal battles in the country’s modern royal history.
