It should be one of the happiest times of her live as she prepares to wed her self-professed shaman fiancé - but Princess Märtha Louise of Norway's big day has been hit with dramas throughout.
Martha & Durek are set to wed at the Union Hotel in Geirangerfjord on August 31. READ MORE:It should be one of the happiest times of her live as she prepares to tie the knot with her self-professed shaman fiancé Durek Verrett - but Princess Märtha Louise of Norway's big day has been hit with dramas throughout.
So, as the loved-up couple prepare to wed at the Union Hotel in Geirangerfjord on August 31, FEMAIL takes a look at the all the drama plaguing the Norwegian Royal Family ahead of Princess Martha Louise's big day... On Sunday, officers responded to a disturbance in downtown Oslo and a man in his 20s was briefly detained. Police have confirmed it was Borg Høiby, 27, who faces preliminary charges of bodily harm and criminal damage, one stage short of formal charges, and was released.In a statement, officers said they 'currently do not have information that the victim has suffered serious injuries.' The case was top news in Norway where the royals are popular.
Borg Høiby lives with the royal couple and their two children - Princess Ingrid Alexandra and Prince Sverre Magnus The Norwegian royal discussed how her fiancé's controversial 'views' had contributed to how the public viewed her position in the royal family. It is unclear why he needed the kidney or how he became wheelchair bound, as he has described. The illness which sent him into a coma is also undisclosed.
He said his mother Veruschka Urquhart has 'repeatedly slandered our characters through false statements showing a significant lack of care and love towards Märtha, myself, and our respective families'. The publication claimed last month to be sharing the 'shock letter, word for word', in which Märtha has reportedly threatened her future mother-in-law with a multimillion-dollar lawsuit, if she does not retract what she has said.
Following the reports, Durek took to Instagram to explain his reasoning, saying: 'I wanted to clarify Märtha Louise's and my recent decision to issue a cease-and-desist letter to my mother, Veruschka. 'We hope this clarifies our position on this matter. Sincerely, Durek D. Verrett,' he concluded his post, in which he shared a picture of him and his partner, posing on a beach in sunglasses and vibrant outfits
'Unfortunately, she has rejected the guidance and support offered by most of her children, including myself. Instead of communicating with us as a family, she has chosen to go to the press with continuous fabrications. In April, Martha Louise furiously hit back at her future mother-in-law's claims that Durek 'was not from a wealthy family'.
Accusing the publication of 'spreading lies', the royal wrote: 'This time they are repeating the lie that Durek was not from a wealthy family as a child , when the truth is that he grew up in a good neighbourhood, his mom left him at an early age and it was in reality his mom not having money, not him.
Martha Louise then proceeded to share photos of the Californian mansion Durek claims to have grown up in, which was listed for over $3m when it was last on the market. 'When Durek became a shaman, it didn't surprise me. He has lived his entire life dedicated to sharing love with all. You'd think growing up with tons of money and very little parental love would make him bitter or arrogant.
'From experience I know it will get worse as we move closer to the wedding. It is so sad that it needs to be this way as a wedding should be a joyous occasion for everyone involved. Also for us…' This is because of Märtha Louise reportedly using her 'princess' name commercially - despite agreeing not to - to sell gins and promote her clothing brand.
But when asked by the publication why the royal used her Princess title in the letter to her mother-in-law, the manager claimed: 'Princess Martha Louise is her name in the national register, and must be used on legal documents such as this,' according to an English translation of the quote. Calls for Princess Martha to give up her titleLast month, King Harald V faced renewed calls to strip Princess Märtha Louise of her royal title after she reportedly used it in a cease-and-desist letter issued to her estranged 81-year-old mother-in-law.
The Norwegian media published articles in which royal experts called for Martha's Princess title to be removed Death threats over relationshipPrincess Martha and Durek previously told how they've received harsh criticism and even death threats because of their interracial relationship. He said: ''She said to me, 'If you don't want to be in this, we can leave. I'm okay. This is the life of a royal. Anyone who comes into my life and my family, this is what they go through."
