Being a member of royalty must be very difficult, as there are protocols and obligations to comply with. Not to mention the fact of being in the sight of others all the time and not having a bit of privacy, which, to be honest, is necessary!
These may be the reasons why Princess Martha Louise of Norway gave up her royal duties to focus on alternative medicine which she runs with her fiancé, Durek Verret, the self-proclaimed shaman.
And it is that while he has dedicated himself to promoting medical practices without scientific bases, for Marta it was very difficult to preserve the lifestyle of the monarchy, so she made the decision to renounce her duties to clearly separate her private activities from the Norwegian royal house.
However, the fact of marking a division in activities does not mean that the princess will not maintain her title as fourth in line to the throne of the European country, since she only sets aside her royal obligations.
In her own statement, Marta Luisa affirmed that she is well aware of the importance of knowledge based on research, but assures that alternative medicine can be an important complement to help the conventional medical system.
Previously, the princess had already generated controversy for promoting alternative treatments, including the creation of the school to help people communicate with their angels. It was just after making her engagement public that Marta became the target of more criticism because Verrett is branded by many as a charlatan, swindler and conspiracy theorist.
It is worth mentioning that these opinions arose from the fact that he has described himself as a sixth generation shaman, who assures that suffering from cancer is a choice. In addition, he claims to have risen from the dead and “predicted” the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in the United States, two years before they occurred.
On the other hand, it seems that the family of the princess of Norway has accepted him well as a new member, since it was the king himself who described Verrett as a fun and great guy.
