Summary
Marius Borg was granted a brief leave from Ila Prison to visit Crown Princess Mette-Marit privately after her successful lung transplant, Norwegian outlet Se og Høre reported.
Police accompanied Borg to the hospital, where he entered through a back entrance to avoid photographers during the discreet post-surgery visit.
The reunion came two days after Borg received a four-year prison sentence for two counts of rape and other charges, far above the 18 months his lawyers had sought.
Mette-Marit's family has rallied around her recovery: Crown Prince Haakon canceled engagements, Princess Ingrid Alexandra paused her Sydney studies, and Queen Sonja also visited.
Support has also come from Denmark, where Queen Mary said she was very happy the surgery went well and sent warm wishes to Mette-Marit and her family.
