Princess Ingrid Alexandra’s historic future role

While her half-brother faces trial, Princess Ingrid Alexandra, 21, remains second-in-line to the Norwegian throne and is expected to become the country’s first queen in more than 600 years. The last female monarch was Margaret I, who reigned in the 1380s.

Earlier this year, Ingrid Alexandra completed 15 months of military training with the Engineer Battalion at Skjold camp. Last month, she moved to Australia to begin a three-year degree in international relations and political economy at the University of Sydney. According to the royal court, the princess will reside in a student residence on campus while studying full time.
