Norway’s Queen Mette-Marit joins a royal procession to move the late King Harald V’s coffin from the royal palace to the chapel, according to reports from multiple outlets. The coffin is carried through the palace area as part of the formal arrangements for the king’s funeral.
The coverage is consistent in describing the procession and the queen’s participation, with outlets focusing on the ceremonial movement of the coffin to the royal chapel. While details of route, timing, and participants are not expanded in the provided excerpts, all accounts align on the key event: the coffin’s transfer from the palace to the chapel and Mette-Marit’s presence in the procession.
Across the sources, the emphasis remains on the public, state-linked nature of the ceremony rather than on political or policy context. The Independent specifically highlights the queen’s role as the procession brings the coffin to the royal chapel, and the other cited reports reflect the same basic facts.
