The Norwegian royal family's website states that it now consists only of King Haakon, Queen Mette-Marit and Crown Princess Ingrid Alexandra. Aftenposten was the first to report this.
"The Royal House includes the reigning monarch and consort, as well as the closest heirs in the next generation and their spouses," the Royal House's website further states.
Queen Sonja also looks set to lose her royal allowance. The Norwegian government's new budget proposal states that only King Haakon and Queen Mette-Marit will receive the allowance.
"The abdication means that a new allowance is established for the royal family," says the budget proposal from the Norwegian Ministry of Digitalization and Public Administration, which is responsible for the royal family's appropriations.
