Birth and education

Prince Sverre Magnus was born on 3 December 2005 at Rikshospitalet University Hospital in Oslo,[1] where his sister Princess Ingrid Alexandra had been born a year earlier.[2] He was baptised by Bishop Ole Christian Kvarme at the chapel of the Royal Palace in Oslo on 4 March 2006.[3]

Since 18 August 2011, Sverre Magnus attended Jansløkka elementary school, a local state school attended by his sister and half-brother.[1] On 17 June 2014, the Norwegian Royal Family notified the public that from the start of the 2014-2015 school year, Sverre Magnus would transfer to Oslo's private Montessori school. His sister Princess Ingrid Alexandra, was to transfer to the also private English-language Oslo International School.[4]

Constitutional status

monogram

Sverre Magnus is third in the line of succession to the Norwegian throne following his sister, and, as a descendant of Maud of Wales, is also in the line of succession to the British throne, between his father and sister.[1][5][6] He is a member of the Royal Family but not of the Royal House, which consists only of his grandparents, parents and sister.[5] As descendants of the British King Edward VII's daughter Maud, members of the Norwegian royal family are also in the line of succession to the British throne;[7][8] he precedes his sister in the British line due to male-preference cognatic primogeniture.[9]
