After Johannes’s triumph in the 20-kilometer Skiathlon, the Queen Consort of Norway personally congratulated him in the stadium’s stand.
The victory also marked Johannes’s fourth win in the game.
“Four-time Norwegian in the 20 kilometer – and the World Championship party continues in Granåsen,” stated the post’s caption.
The Royal Family went on to share, “Johannes Høsflot Klæbo fulfilled expectations and took his second World Championship gold in Granåsen after winning the 20 kilometer with ski change. After crossing the finish line, Klæbo received congratulations from the Queen.”
In the first photo, Queen Sonja and Johannes were seen beaming at the camera in the stands, while the second snap featured the top three winners of the race.
The third slide featured an image of the audience cheering for Johannes Høsflot Klæbo, holding Norway’s flags high.
A fan gushed in the comment, “Hats off to Johannes, but really also to our BEAUTIFUL and sporty Queen.”
