King Harald of Norway made his return to Norway on Saturday evening following his discharge from a hospital in Tenerife, Canary Islands. The news was reported by the Norwegian broadcasting company NRK, which cited information from the royal court. According to the court, the king is in good health and is expected to continue his planned duties starting next week.

Earlier in February, the royal court announced that King Harald, while on a private trip to the Canary Islands with Queen Sonja, was hospitalized due to issues related to an infection and dehydration. The king was reportedly released from the hospital last week after receiving necessary treatment.

At 89 years old, King Harald is the oldest reigning monarch in Europe. He has been serving as the King of Norway since 1991, and his ability to return to work shortly after his hospitalization signals resilience and a commitment to his royal duties, which have remained an important part of his legacy.
