<p>The 52-year-old Martha Louise and Durek Verret, who claims to be a sixth-generation shaman from California, tied the knot in the picturesque town of Geiranger, one of Norway’s major tourist attractions located on a fjord.</p>
<p>Following festivities that started on Thursday, the actual wedding ceremony took place in a large white tent set up on a lush lawn.</p>

<p>The couple has sold the wedding photo rights to British celebrity magazine Hello! and the film rights to Netflix.</p>
<p>The deals prompted protests from Norwegian media, which say it goes against local practices. The couple has often lashed out against the press while promoting themselves on social media.</p>
<p>The 87-year-old King Harald, who has been in fragile health the past few years, attended his daughter’s wedding together with Queen Sonja and other member of the Norwegian royal house.</p>

<p>Crown Princess Victoria and her husband Prince Daniel represented the Swedish royal house together with her brother, Prince Carl Philip and his wife Princess Sofia. No other European royals took part in the wedding.</p>
<p>The wedding comes amid widespread criticism of the couple’s actions and waning support for the Norwegian royals, who have also been plagued by negative reports about an unruly family member who faces preliminary domestic violence charges.</p>
<p>Martha Louise and Verret, 49, have attracted headlines with their alternative beliefs. She is fourth in line to the Norwegian throne but said in 2022 that she will no longer officially represent the Norwegian royal house.</p>
<figure id="attachment_184247" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-184247" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img src="https://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/IMG_6175.webp" alt="" width="640" height="427" class="size-full wp-image-184247" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-184247" class="wp-caption-text">Norway’s Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit</figcaption></figure>
<p>The princess – she has retained the title – has said she can talk with angels, while Verret claims that he communicates with a broad range of spirits and has a medallion which helps ward off spells and cures diseases.</p>
<p>They became engaged in 2022. Following their marriage, Verret will not have a royal title or official duties.</p>
<p>In a 2019 deal, Martha Louise and Verret agreed not to use her connection to the royal house or her title for commercial purposes.</p>
<figure id="attachment_184248" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-184248" style="width: 640px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img src="https://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/IMG_6176.webp" alt="" width="640" height="427" class="size-full wp-image-184248" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-184248" class="wp-caption-text">The princess has three daughters from a previous marriage</figcaption></figure>
<p>But earlier this year Martha Louise labelled bottles of gin with her title and launched the brand in time for the wedding, defying King Harald’s directive that she should not profit from her royal status. The label was eventually changed.</p>
<p>Martha Louise has three children from her previous marriage with Ari Behn, whom she divorced in 2017 after 14 years of marriage.</p>
