  • Frogner Woman Tells Court “It Started With Smaller Things” as Key Testimony Begins in Høiby trial

    Frogner Woman Tells Court “It Started With Smaller Things” as Key Testimony Begins in Høiby trial
    Mar 5 2026
    One of the most consequential phases of the Marius Borg Høiby trial is now underway as the woman known in Norwegian media as the “Frogner woman” begins two days of testimony. She is connected to twenty of the forty criminal counts in the case.

    In emotional evidence, she told the court the relationship did not begin with violence but gradually escalated from jealousy, drugs and insecurity. She described arguments in Berlin and Norway where objects were smashed, alleged incidents of filming without consent, and a volatile relationship she called “like a roller coaster.”

    The court also heard her account of the night of August 4, 2024, when she says Høiby grabbed her by the neck, slapped her and destroyed property in her apartment. She testified that at one point he took a knife and threatened to kill a man he believed she had cheated with.

    Prosecutors say her allegations underpin many of the charges in the case, including assault, property damage, sexually offensive filming and restraining order violations. Høiby admits some lesser offences but denies the most serious accusations.

    The testimony continues Thursday, after which Høiby himself is expected to give his account of events.

  • New Indictment Dropped Mid-Trial! Høiby Admits Restraining Order Breach as Court Widens Case

    New Indictment Dropped Mid-Trial! Høiby Admits Restraining Order Breach as Court Widens Case
    Mar 4 2026
    Dramatic developments in Oslo District Court as prosecutor Sturla Henriksbø announces a new additional indictment against Marius Borg Høiby — alleging reckless conduct and breach of a restraining order involving the so-called Frogner woman just days before trial began.
    According to the indictment, Høiby is accused of calling her an “unfaithful whore,” breaking his phone, grabbing her as she tried to leave, and later sitting beside her with a knife while threatening to harm himself. He acknowledges criminal responsibility for the reckless conduct and restraining order breach. His defence says: “He has always acknowledged that. There is nothing new here.”

    We also cover testimony from Nora Haukland’s sister, her PR adviser describing “lovebombing” and manipulation, text messages including “You have to choose. Me or Farmen,” and a witness who said at Oslo Scene, “There was no doubt that he went for a chokehold.”

    Plus: a former inmate finally testifies, a close friend defends Høiby’s character, and prosecutors seek a 400,000 kroner fine against NRK for violating court photo restrictions.

    The proceedings have formally widened. Wednesday will bring the formal reading of the new indictment and the expected testimony of the Frogner woman.

    Friend Describes Fear, Marius Borg Høiby Court Hears “You Were Violent Today” in Text Messages
    Mar 3 2026
    uesday’s proceedings in the trial of Marius Borg Høiby shifted from live witnesses to the documentary core of the case.

    A close friend of Nora Haukland told the court she “quickly got a feeling that something was not right,” describing an incident where he was “very angry” and an alleged chokehold that left her “very scared.”Neighbours testified about a night of intense noise — “Shit is going down next door” — and said they later saw visible injuries

    .The afternoon was dominated by hundreds of text messages, moving from “You are my dream woman” to “You were violent today,” along with a personal note titled “Things I want to change about myself,” in which he wrote, “My first goal is to stop all lying completely” and “When I take cocaine I feel invincible. I am not.”We break down the testimony, the SMS evidence, and what it could mean as the evidentiary phase continues.

  • Wheel of violence, weeping witnesses and a poll plunge: Høiby trial rocks the crown

    Wheel of violence, weeping witnesses and a poll plunge: Høiby trial rocks the crown
    Feb 28 2026
    Week four ends with the Høiby trial now firmly centered on the close-relationship abuse charge involving Nora Haukland. Police read extensive message exchanges and explain the “wheel of violence,” while witnesses describe frequent arguments, alleged control, and what they say Haukland told them during the relationship. A friend of both parties, Danby Choi, says he saw shouting but no physical violence, while other witnesses recount emotional disclosures and a confrontation that spilled into open conflict in court. Procedurally, detention continues past Monday, a restraining order is extended, and next week’s timetable expands as the case falls behind, with the Frogner complainant due to begin testimony mid-week. Separately, an NRK poll shows support for the monarchy dropping sharply in a month, with Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s approval nearly halving, even as King Harald, Queen Sonja and Crown Prince Haakon remain strongly rated.

  • PR strategy from end to end’: Høiby blasts influencer photo as explosive audio rocks court

    PR strategy from end to end’: Høiby blasts influencer photo as explosive audio rocks court
    Feb 27 2026
    A controversial “pose photo” posted by Sophie Elise Isachsen becomes central to the trial as Marius Borg Høiby claims it was deliberate PR, not an accident, and describes it as a crisis for his family. In court, he admits smashing phones, throwing one “into a thousand pieces,” and having a long-standing anger problem, but denies strangulation and assault allegations tied to the Alta incident. Jurors hear audio in which he shouts abuse and says, “I grabbed you really f---ing hard,” while Nora Haukland is heard pleading, “Don’t strangle me.” Høiby insists the relationship was mutually volatile, says he feels “extremely used,” and defends his parents as proceedings fall behind schedule.

    King Harald hospitalized as Høiby clashes in court and Jagland corruption case deepens
    Feb 26 2026
    King Harald, 89, is hospitalized in Tenerife with infection and dehydration, prompting a palace update and fresh questions about succession, with Crown Prince Haakon next in line and Mette-Marit’s role poised to shift instantly if required.

    In Oslo District Court, Marius Borg Høiby grows emotional as he disputes Nora Haukland’s abuse allegations, admits heavy drinking and pushing incidents, but denies strangulation and key elements of her account as prosecutors move chronologically through the indictment.

    The trial is now behind schedule with high-profile witnesses expected.

    Meanwhile, former prime minister Thorbjørn Jagland is hospitalized amid an expanding aggravated corruption investigation tied to newly released Epstein files, after the Council of Europe lifts his immunity.
