On Wednesday, the so-called Frogner woman testified about a relationship marked by physical and psychological violence.

In the end, you believe that this person is the only one who can give you security, even if it's the same person you are afraid of.

She says that the relationship started with a lot of love and "love-bombing," VG reports. But that changed quickly.

Høiby's first arrest took place in August 2024 after a violent incident in the Frogner woman's apartment. When police arrived at the scene, she had a concussion and visible head injuries. A knife was in the wall, and a crystal chandelier lay on the floor.

29-year-old Høiby, son of Norway's Crown Princess Mette-Marit, is on trial for violence against and damage to his ex-girlfriend and for taking intimate photos of her without consent.

He is also charged, among other things, with the rape of four other women. Høiby faces up to 16 years in prison.
