Norway's Princess Astrid has died on Friday at the age of 94, just two days after attending the funeral of her brother, the late King Harald. The royal palace confirmed the passing in a statement.

In a tribute to his aunt, the new monarch, King Haakon VIII, stated that Princess Astrid had "represented the Royal House in a warm and dutiful manner." Her brother, King Harald, had passed away last month at the age of 89 following a reign of more than 35 years, an event preceding the princess's final public appearance.
