Norwegian Princess Mette-Marit Awaits Urgent Lung Transplant
The Norwegian Royal Family announced that Princess Mette-Marit’s lung fibrosis has worsened, placing her on the waiting list, hoping for a donor very soon. The princess has been battling chronic lung fibrosis for eight years, with a worsening of the condition reported last year.
In December 2025, her deteriorating health was disclosed, and she appeared at an official event using an oxygen respirator. Her condition disrupts the Norwegian royal calendar and raises concerns about future succession plans.
The family affirmed that her treatment will be closely monitored and all necessary medical support will be provided until a suitable donor is found.
