Wait, the police are going after a royal, I thought that was impossible?!? (speaking from the UK where we clearly have a rapist and paedophile…)
Police investigation concludes “boys will be boys”
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Only the king or queen (if rightful heir to the throne) is immune, in accordance with article 5 of the Norwegian codex.
The king does have the right to pardon criminals though. He doesn’t exactly seem to be very fond of the kid though, and is generally seen as a very just man and close to the people.
TIL that the pinnacle of social democracy has a crown prince
That’t not Høiby. He’s the son of a crown princess.
It’s a monarchy in name
The European backwaters and their undeveloped political system of monarchies
Yeah can you imagine scoring lower on a democracy index than this monarch ridden backwater… oh they’re #1, my country is #9 and the US is #28. Oops.
We call him Temu-Joffrey in Norway.
People are surprised monarchs are rapists. Centuries of inbreeding do not produce healthy minds.
Just FYI, he is the crown princess’s son, from before she was married to the crown prince. He isn’t part of the royal family or their blood line. He’s just a pos stain that won’t take responsibility for his actions or life. He’s a sad sad person.
Confirmed bastard in every sense then.
… No? That is not how a bastard works. She married into the royal family but had a kid before. A bastard would be her having an affair and giving birth to a kid while married into the family already. Or the prince fathering a kid with someone else other than the wife. This is just “a kid from a previous marriage / relationship”.
That is not how a bastard works. To be clear, all of this is archaic, I’m not actually calling anybody a bastard, but the definition of bastard is “a child born to parents who are not married to each other.” He matches that definition because his parents were never married.
Affairs don’t come into it, it’s just some old bullshit cultural and religious ideals about which types of relationships (just the one: heterosexual marriages) children are “supposed” to be born into.
Generational wealth and power, does not produce healthy minds.
The inbreeding was a side effect of an already broken system.
Dude looks like the personification if fetal alcohol syndrome.
Now that you mention, yeah, he does.
A monarchist abusing his position of power.
Who. Would’ve. Thunk.
To be fair, he doesn’t have a title or any official position of power. His mother already had him when she met and later married the crown prince of Norway. But everyone in Norway knows who he is and he’s definitely very privileged, so he may have abused that fact…
The royals are quite decent and cool. I’m in principle for getting rid of the monarchy, but this gang is so chill I’m ok with not making a fuss. Except for this shitstain. And the crown prince’s sister. And her charlatan husband. In fact, only the hereditary bloodline is good. It’s almost like some divine magic, or that they got all the good attention and the others have useless sibling syndrome.
Heh a royal patchwork family then. I guess as a non blood relative to the crown prince he wouldn’t be in the line of succession?
Not at all, no. He’s not part of the royal family.
I don’t think he really has a position of power. And it could well be that this costs him the chance for the crown.
He has no ties at all into royalty. He can never be royalty unless he forms an army and goes to war for the Crown or something.
I don’t think he ever actually had a chance at the crown; He was born before his mother married the crown prince. His younger siblings would have a potential claim since they’re the prince’s kids, but he wouldn’t any claim since he’s not the prince’s child. He’s even excluded from some of the royal portraits.
It’s always the ones you suspected the most.
Immediately thought this, but there’s something worse about him (which makes sense, since Eddie is a character played by an actor who, I’m guessing, isn’t actually a vile and pathetic person).
Thus suffers from the same problem “Adolescence” did; the writing and role is believable enough and the actor looks like they could be as despicable… but then you somehow don’t believe the actor to be that big of a cunt.
Joffrey doesn’t suffer from that, Jack Gleeson is such a brilliant actor I never doubted he could be such a massive cunt. But I know he isn’t. But he made me believe it.
Like Eddie and the kid in Adolescence both have too much humanity showing through.
It’s always the ones you most expect…
What an absolute piece of shit, I hope his “rank” doesn’t stop him from going to jail…
I hope it does. I’m trying to marry into royalty so I can have carte blanche to do whatever I want. Like eat pancakes for dinner. Or eat pancakes for lunch. Or have a second helping of pancakes for breakfast. Really, just more pancakes.
You could simply go to Austria and do that. Palatschinken is acceptable for any meal and delicious.
Damn pansexuals.
Judge:
… Something something… suffering from affluenza… Not guilty!
In Norway? I’m going to guess justice will be served. Coming from an American.
I know nothing about this guy aside from this headline but that checks out.
Can monarchies die already
I was wondering what is Eddie Harrigan up to before season 2!
Basically irl Joffrey Baratheon
Based on the photo yes. The reality is a bit more nuanced and interesting if you ask me.
