Princess Astrid of Norway dies. She is 94 years old. The princess dies on Friday. That is only 2 days after a big party. It is the grief party for her brother. Her brother is King Harald 5.
King Harald dies at the end of August in the hospital. Princess Astrid is a big help for the family. She helps the king with his tasks. Already at 22 years she has many duties. Back then her mother dies. Astrid becomes the first lady of Norway.
The princess is sick for a long time. In May she gets a heart-pacemaker. That is a small tool for the heart. Still she works until the end. She cares often for weak people. The flags at the castle in Oslo hang low now.
