- Marius Borg Høiby no longer has access to royal residence
- Marius faces restrictions amid legal troubles
- He lives close to the property in Skaugum
Marius Borg Høiby, the 27-year-old son of Crown Princess Mette-Marit, has recently lost his access to the royal Skaugum estate, according to reports from Norwegian media outlet 'Aftenposten.' Although he resides in a secluded house near the forest at Skaugum in Asker, his proximity to the main residence of the Crown Prince couple has not granted him immunity from the current situation.
A party gone wrong: The burglary incident
In September, the Norwegian publication 'Se og Hør' revealed that Marius was linked to a burglary at the royal property after hosting a "wild party." The event reportedly spiraled out of control, leading to members of a notorious motorcycle gang stealing items of significant monetary and sentimental value belonging to the Crown Prince family. A video obtained by the publication showed an unidentified individual navigating the private apartment of Mette-Marit and Haakon on a Segway, highlighting the aftermath of the chaos with belongings scattered across the floor.
The news of Marius’ exclusion from the royal residence emerged shortly after he made headlines for his legal issues. On August 4, he was detained for allegedly "psychologically and physically" assaulting a woman in her 20s, later identified as his girlfriend. His troubles escalated when he was arrested again on September 15 for breaching a restraining order, spending a total of 30 hours in police custody.
Denials and ongoing legal proceedings
In a statement issued earlier this month, Marius refuted claims of assaulting two former girlfriends, Nora Haukland and Juliane Snekkestad, who had come forward following his August arrest. Although he acknowledged the assault on his current girlfriend, he maintained his innocence regarding the allegations from his past relationships. His lawyer, Øyvind Bratlien, confirmed on TV2 that Marius has undergone eight police interrogations, during which he provided detailed accounts of the incidents. "Marius Borg Høiby has already completed his interrogations. He has been questioned by the police eight times in total, during which he has explained himself thoroughly and in detail."
