Princess Märtha Louise of Norway’s wedding to shaman Durek Verrett has sparked controversy, raising eyebrows with its unconventional nature and the couple’s contentious relationship with the Norwegian press. The princess’s past as an alternative therapist and Verrett’s history of promoting pseudoscience and legal troubles have added to the intrigue. The couple’s decision to sell exclusive photos of their wedding to Hello! magazine, instead of sharing them with the Norwegian press, has further fueled the controversy, with some seeing it as a breach of tradition and a disregard for the Norwegian public’s right to access information about the royal family.
