Young royal spotted in Sydney on a classic Aussie bottle-O run

Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway has touched down in Australia ahead of her three-year undergraduate degree at Sydney Uni and has been spotted settling into student life. She was seen today for the first time since her enrolment, lugging a box of wine back to her student accommodation in Camperdown. It seems she's already getting on board with campus culture, as she casually strolled onto the grounds holding the box of booze. Her tipple of choice was a $16 Italian prosecco. The 21-year-old royal opted for a casual outfit, not dissimilar to the one in the formal photos announcing her university endeavours on the weekend. She rocked the classic Aussie winter uniform – a minimalist navy cardigan and low-waisted, white baggy jeans. Her long brown hair was styled in an effortless middle part, and she classed up the look with a pair of gold hoop earrings. And no bottle-O run is complete without a comfy pair of sneakers to trawl the aisles in. To finish off the ensemble, the Gen Z sported a white name badge that said 'Ingrid', just in case her dorm mates weren't aware of who she was. She wasn't with her usual entourage, just a friend who casually sipped on a matcha latte and looked every bit as laid back as her famous mate. The sighting comes after it was announced that Princess Ingrid will be studying in Australia for her Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Sydney. She posted on her family's official Instagram a few days ago saying that she is 'looking forward to starting my studies'. Along with new photos around the university grounds, the Norwegian royal family's full statement read: 'I'm looking forward to starting my studies at the University of Sydney. 'It will be exciting to become a student, and I'm looking forward to gaining new perspectives on both European and international politics. 'I'm sure that I will learn a lot.' Born in 2004, Princess Ingrid has mostly stayed out of the spotlight, attending local schools in Oslo and finishing her upper secondary education in 2023. She is the granddaughter of Norway's current monarch, 88-year-old King Harald V. She made history as the first female heir to the Norwegian throne. The Princess plans to step back from official appearances while continuing her studies in Australia. Princess Ingrid's decision to study in Australia comes during a challenging year for the Norwegian royal family, following charges of rape and sexual assault against her half-brother, Marius Borg Høiby, which he has denied. The charges came after months of investigation into a case police say involves a 'double-digit' number of alleged victims. The charges included one case of rape involving intercourse, two cases of rape without intercourse, four cases of sexual assault, and two cases of bodily harm.
