Norwegian father, Swedish mother, born in Norway, so she’s a Swede? How is that?

Perhaps the article is unclear... where it says “lived with her Norwegian father in Norway since she was born” ...that must mean she was born in Sweden and then went to Norway... which would logically make her Swedish and an immigrant to Norway. Her parents should have known that.

This really is an old story. In 1879 my grandmother was born in Norway of a Swedish mother and a Norwegian father. She was officially Swedish, not Norwegian.
