The palace released several official Christmas portraits on Friday, featuring King Harald, Queen Sonja, Crown Prince Haakon, Crown Princess Mette-Marit, Princess Ingrid Alexandra, and Prince Sverre Magnus. (Norway’s royal house includes Harald, Sonja, Haakon, Mette-Marit, and Ingrid Alexandra. The royal family includes the entire family, including Sverre Magnus, Marius Borg, Princess Astrid, and Princess Martha Louise and her daughters.)

Princess Ingrid Alexandra, who will one day be Norway’s monarch, wore a sentimental piece of family jewelry: the heart pendant necklace she received from her grandmother, Queen Sonja. (More on the necklace here!)

Crown Princess Mette-Marit didn’t wear any visible jewelry in the portraits, but given her recent health care issues, it’s just great to see her smiling!

On Monday, Haakon and Mette-Marit made a visit to the Fathers Pursuit Organisation in Oslo.

Mette-Marit wore several pieces of interesting jewelry for the visit, including a long necklace with several pendants.

And in lieu of her engagement ring (a ruby and diamond ring that was also her mother-in-law’s engagement ring), she wore a ring with a large white stone (perhaps indeed a diamond) on her left hand.
