First Look At Norway’s New King Haakon After King Harald’s Death | DWS News | AC1F

Norway's newly proclaimed monarch, King Haakon VIII, joined by his daughter, Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra, met with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and cabinet members at the Royal Palace in Oslo for an extraordinary Council of State following the death of King Harald V. The 89-year-old monarch passed away peacefully on Friday, August 28, 2026, ending a transformative 35-year reign.

The formal cabinet session served to officially confirm the constitutional succession, with 53-year-old Haakon assuming the throne and 22-year-old Ingrid Alexandra becoming heir apparent as Crown Princess. During the meeting, King Haakon VIII formally informed the Norwegian government of his father's passing and affirmed his constitutional oath, initiating a nationwide period of mourning as citizens paid tribute to King Harald V's legacy of modernizing the monarchy.
