The Royal secret Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway has been hiding during her stay Down Under
Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway moved to Australia last month to begin a three-year undergraduate degree at the University of Sydney.
The future queen of Norway, 21, has been spotted in recent weeks exploring Sydney while getting into the spirit of student life.
But it's now been revealed Ingrid Alexandra has been hiding a major secret during her stay Down Under.
Her parents Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit have also joined her in Sydney.
The Royal couple have been keeping a low profile after jetting into the country earlier this month.
After arriving in Sydney, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit were whisked away and driven to their hotel.
They have visited local cafes and popular attractions, and were seen spending time with their daughter last week before jetting out of the country on Monday.
Last week, Ingrid took a break from her studies to spend time with her parents and also enjoyed a boat party on Sydney Harbour with her friends.
The party appeared to be Christmas-themed, with many revellers decked out in Santa Claus costumes.
Ingrid looked delighted to be taking a break, beaming as she arrived at the weekday party with friends.
The chic royal, who is second in line to the throne after her father arrived Down Under late last month.
She posed on campus for a series of photos she uploaded to Instagram.
The Royal Household's full statement from Ingrid read: 'I'm looking forward to starting my studies at the University of Sydney.
'It will be exciting to become a student, and I'm looking forward to gaining new perspectives on both European and international politics.
'I'm sure that I will learn a lot.'
She marked the joyous occasion with a series of images taken around what appeared to be the University of Sydney campus.
While she is certainly adjusting to Australian party life, Ingrid appears to still be getting the hang of Aussie road rules.
She was recently spotted making a slight slip-up when she and a female friend tried to hop into a waiting Uber from the wrong side.
Evidently used to left-hand drive vehicles, the princess was seen reaching for the door handle on the driver's side.
Her decision to move to Australia to continue her studies comes after she embarked on military training at the Engineer Battalion in Brigade Nord last year.
