Danish royal couple and Norwegian king and queen among guests of honor at King Carl Gustaf's 80th birthday celebration

The Danish royal couple and the Norwegian king and queen are some of the foreign guests of honor attending King Carl Gustaf's 80th birthday.

The celebration of the King's 80th birthday begins with a church service in the Royal Chapel in Stockholm and ends with a gala dinner.

The list of foreign guests of honor includes the President of Finland, Alexander Stubb, and his wife, Suzanne Innes-Stubb. Royals from Denmark, Belgium, Thailand, and Spain will also attend.

The King and Queen, as well as Crown Prince Haakon, will be coming from Norway. Crown Princess Mette-Marit, who has faced scrutiny over past connections with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and over her son Marius Borg Høiby's rape trial, has withdrawn, citing her chronic lung disease.
