Iceland’s minister for children, Ásthildur Lóa Thórsdóttir, resigned after disclosing a past relationship with a 16-year-old boy that resulted in a child. As a 22-year-old church counsellor, she became involved with Eirík Ásmundsson, who paid child support for 18 years. The revelation led to her resignation, with Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir urging discretion regarding the matter’s personal nature.
