Marius Borg Høiby, the 29-year-old son of Norway’s Crown Princess Mette-Marit, received disappointing news from the Appeal Court of Oslo on Wednesday, June 10, when he was denied release from custody ahead of his June 15 verdict.
He has remained incarcerated since February while facing a grand total of 40 charges involving illegal substances and harming women.
The decision comes as Marius had sought release to be close to his ailing mother, who suffers from pulmonary fibrosis — a progressive lung disease — as her condition continues to deteriorate.
