Abdicating from the throne in the name of love is a tantalizing tale, but not too uncommon. King Edward did it in 1936; Prince Harry followed his heart to Montecito, California; and now Princess Martha Louise of Norway is tossing her crown aside to say “I do” to her fiancé, American celebrity shaman Durek Verrett.
The New York Times reports that the princess, beloved by American royalty like Gwyneth Paltrow, is being criticized by Norwegian media for running off with a 47-year-old Sacramento native who runs an online shaman school and sells on his website a $222 magical amulet he calls the Spirit Optimizer, which he claims can heal Covid-19. What could there possibly be to criticize? I do not see the problem.
Verrett has been rightfully called out for claiming in his book that children get cancer because they are unhappy—but to be fair, this sort of company is not unusual for Princess Martha Louise to keep, and the country of Norway is well aware of that, too. In 2012, a national survey showed that 15% of Norwegians believed the princess spoke with angels and dead people.
You should really see all this drama unfolding yourself. Here is the video Martha Louise released explaining her decision to leave her royal duties:
