1990

The Constitution of Norway was amended in 1990 to introduce absolute primogeniture, ensuring that the crown would pass to the eldest child regardless of sex but keeping the Crown Prince ahead of his elder sister, Princess Märtha Louise.

This change applied for the first time to the children of the Crown Prince, meaning that Sverre Magnus would not rank above his elder sister, as would have happened under prior constitutional rules.

Sverre Magnus is third in the line of succession to the Norwegian throne following his elder sister.

He is a member of the Royal Family but not of the Royal House, which consists only of his grandparents, parents and elder sister.

Since birth Sverre Magnus has been a prince of Norway with the style of His Highness, unlike his elder sister who is styled as Her Royal Highness.
