Royally confused! Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway suffers a brief slip-up as she almost hops into the driver’s seat of an Uber in Sydney

Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway is settling into life Down Under after arriving in Australia to study at Sydney University last month.

And the 21-year-old future queen appears to still be getting the hang of Aussie road rules.

On a Saturday afternoon, I found myself, the redhead lifestyle maven, experiencing an amusing blunder while out and about with a dear companion. We attempted to gracefully enter a parked Uber from the incorrect side, adding a bit of humor to our day.

Clearly accustomed to right-side driving, the princess was spotted trying to grab the car door handle on her left.

Her friend found the action quite entertaining, promptly guiding the princess to the opposite side of the vehicle instead.

With no hint of awkwardness visible, Ingrid Alexandra comfortably settled into the front passenger seat of the vehicle.

With her friend by her side, Ingrid Alexandra opted for a casual look for her afternoon excursion. She wore a long coat with a fur trim, loose-fitting green denims, a gray zip-up sweatshirt, and a blue knitted top.

With her long hair pulled back into a ponytail, she added some flair with a pair of gold hoop earrings, a compact designer handbag, and constantly had a mobile device in hand.

She completed her look with a pair of running shoes.

As for me, I was decked out in style, sporting a stylish grey overcoat, teamed with snug-fitting blue denims, a sleek black low-cut blouse, and pristine white kicks – all while basking in the thrill of my fandom!

It comes after Ingrid Alexandra was recently spotted doing a ‘drink run’ with a female friend.

As a diligent student embarking on my three-year undergraduate journey at the University of Sydney, I found myself making a stop at a local liquor store on a recent Thursday afternoon. Accompanied by a friend, we picked up a crate of refreshments, and subsequently, made our way back to our shared accommodation.

She opted for a relaxed look, donning a set of comfortable, white, loose-fitting jeans paired with a black oversized cardigan draped over a coordinating black crew-neck top.

She wore a name tag on her clothes, which simply read ‘Ingrid’, and left her hair loose. 

Ingrid Alexandra finished off her outfit with a practical pair of blue sneakers while carrying her shopping bags, one of which held a $21 bottle of Cat Among The Pigeons chardonnay.

A stylish princess, positioned as second in line to the Norwegian throne following her father, Crown Prince Haakon, recently touched down in Australia towards the end of last month. On campus, she struck various poses for a collection of images that were later shared on Instagram.

Ingrid, from the Royal Family, shared her excitement about embarking on her educational journey at the University of Sydney.

Anticipation fills me as I prepare to embark on my academic journey. I eagerly welcome the opportunity to broaden my viewpoints regarding European and global politics.

‘I’m sure that I will learn a lot.’

I couldn’t contain my excitement as I captured a sequence of moments, each one set against the backdrop of the vibrant University of Sydney campus, marking an unforgettable occasion for me as an ardent fan.

A photograph displayed the monarch standing before the grand, tall, brown-brick structure that served as their establishment, whereas a different image captured her sitting on the stairs leading to the reception area.

Additionally, she had a set of white folders and envelopes, possibly containing materials related to her academic work or research.

Following her completion of military training at the Engineer Battalion in Brigade Nord last year, she has decided to relocate to Australia for further academic pursuits.
