1905-2005, May biography: Ragnhild - The Royal Forums
Princess Ragnhild of Norway was born on June 9th, 1930 to Crown Prince Olav and Crown Princess Märtha.
The Princesses at Skaugum weren't aware that they were different from other children; their parents made an effort to raise them as normally as possible.
Princess Ragnhild made her public debut in 1935 when she and Princess Astrid were among the bridesmaids at Princess Ingrid of Sweden's wedding to Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark in Stockholm.

Experts: 'Many share princess' feelings'
Royal experts in Norway believe Princess Ragnhild's criticism of her family's new members is rooted in her own strict upbringing, during a time when royal etiquette was more formal and traditional.
Princess Ragnhild's own marriage to Erling Lortenzen 50 years ago was controversial at the time.
Princess Ragnhild's own marriage to Erling Lorentzen in 1953 was controversial at the time, even though he was a resistance hero from World War II and part of the official escort that brought the royal family back to Norway after their war years in exile.

Princess Ragnhild and family news and picture thread - The Royal Forums
She's the daughter of Princess Ragnhild, sister of the present king, and one of the daughters of King Olav V. King Olav's mother was Queen Maud, whose father was King Edward.
Princess Ragnhild suggested that she was nearly forced to leave the country when she married a commoner herself in 1953.
I think that perhaps the princess wanted to marry for love as well as live in the country she was born and retain some of the privileges and liberties she now sees her nephew and niece have, even though they, too, have married commoners.

Editorial, February 18, 2004
The documentary is peppered with criticism, and Princess Ragnhild claims to be concerned about the future of the monarchy and the lack of royal etiquette among the younger members of the royal family.
Princess Ragnhild's own marriage with Erling Lorentzen in 1953 was controversial at the time, even though Lorentzen was a resistance hero from World War II.
But Ragnhild suggested that her husband "was in a different category" than the former single-mother Crown Princess Mette-Marit and author Ari Behn.

She was born and brought up in Rio, where her mother, Princess Ragnhild, moved soon after marrying her bodyguard-turned-businessman husband.
She says that royals are people too and mentions a recent argument in Norway over whether the correspondence between Olaf and Princess Ragnhild - they wrote to each other every week for 40 years - should be in the public domain.
Historians said they should; the princess said they were the private letters of a loving father to a devoted daughter; she ended the argument by burning most of the letters.

Ragnhild's brother Harald aligned himself with William "the Lion" of Scotland and profited thereby.
In 1263 Alexander III of Scotland decisively defeated Haakon IV of Norway at the Battle of Largs, effectively ending Norse influence in the region.
Unfortunately for families on the periphery of emerging Scotland, the Scottish kings, descended from the 11th century English princess St. Margaret, pursued a policy of stamping out Gaelic tribal culture and reorganizing the country along the lines of English feudalism.
