Tragic Ari Behn's death left the palace stunned and family and friends grief-stricken as member of the royal family paid tribute.
The 47-year-old author and artist leaves behind three young children, who he shares with the princess, 48.
The couple married in 2002 and divorced in 2017.
Mr Behn's manager announced the tragedy while King Harald - the princess' dad - paid a heartfelt tribute to the writer.
The 82-year-old monarch said: “It is with great sadness that the Queen and I have received the message of Ari Behn’s passing.
“Ari has been an important part of our family for many years, and we carry warm, fond memories of him.”
A statement from the Crown Prince family added: “For us, Ari was a good friend, a dear family member and a wonderful uncle, with whom we shared many of life’s small and big moments.
"It is with great sadness that we have received the message of his passing away.”
The couple have three children; Maud Angelica, born in 2003, Leah Isadora in 2005, and Emma Tallulah, in 2008.
Geir Hakonsund, Ari Behn's manager, said tonight: "It is with sadness in our hearts that we, the closest relatives of Ari Behn, announce today that he has taken his life."
"We ask for respect for our privacy in the coming time."
