Her appearance comes after the royal's 28-year-old son, Marius Borg Høiby, reportedly stepped off the plane in Oslo 'with a new girlfriend in tow'. The unnamed woman has 'lived in London for a long time' according to Norwegian paper Se og Hor. Marius was first arrested in the summer, and has since faced a string of charges including assault and two rapes and as well as other sexual assault charges.
