Following the passing of King Harald V in August, Queen Sonja of Norway has been reclassified on the Norwegian royal court's website, moving from the Royal House listing to the "rest of the royal family" category.

The reigning King Haakon VIII, Queen Mette-Marit, and Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra are now the sole members of the Royal House, reflecting the website's criteria that include only the reigning monarch and the direct line of succession.

Additionally, Queen Sonja's title has changed, and she is no longer addressed as "Majesty," an honorific now reserved solely for the current royal couple.

COPENHAGEN, Oct 13 — Following the death of her husband, King Harald V, in August, Queen Sonja of Norway is no longer officially listed as a member of the Royal House on the Norwegian royal court’s website, reported German Press Agency (dpa).

Instead, the 89-year-old queen’s portrait is sorted into the category “rest of the royal family”, Norwegian media reported on Monday.

Sonja’s son, the new King Haakon VIII and his wife, Queen Mette-Marit, along with 22-year-old Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra, are listed as the sole members of the Royal House.

“The Royal House includes the respective reigning monarch with their spouse, as well as the next in line to the throne of the subsequent generations and their spouses,” the website states.

“The term royal family also encompasses the rest of the monarch’s family.”

Joining Sonja in that category are her daughter Princess Märtha Louise, 55, and her 20-year-old grandson, Prince Sverre Magnus, who stands second in the line of succession after his sister Ingrid Alexandra.

Following Harald’s death at the age of 89, Queen Sonja is now also no longer referred to as “Majesty” — this form of address now applies only to the royal couple. — Bernama-dpa

继哈拉尔五世国王于 8 月去世后，挪威王后索尼娅在挪威王室网站上的分类发生了变化，从“王室成员”类别移至“其他王室成员”类别。

现任国王哈康八世、王后梅特-玛丽特和王储妃英格丽德·亚历山德拉是王室的唯一成员，这反映了该网站的标准，即只包括在位君主和直接继承人。

此外，索尼娅王后的头衔也发生了变化，她不再被称为“陛下”，这个尊称现在只保留给现任王室夫妇。

哥本哈根，10 月 13 日——据德国新闻社 (dpa) 报道，挪威王后索尼娅在丈夫哈拉尔五世国王于 8 月去世后，已不再正式列入挪威王室网站，成为王室成员。

据挪威媒体周一报道，这位 89 岁女王的画像被归入“其他王室成员”类别。

索尼娅的儿子，新国王哈康八世和他的妻子梅特-玛丽特王后，以及22岁的王储妃英格丽德·亚历山德拉，被列为王室的唯一成员。
