Norway’s Princess Märtha Louise Marries Durek Verrett in Grand Wedding
Meghan Markle Reveals How Impact of Royal Spotlight “Changed Everything” About Her Style
Norway gave its princess the royal treatment.
Two years after announcing their engagement, Princess Märtha Louise and her now-husband Durek Verrett tied the knot in a lavish, three-day ceremony in Ålesund—a picturesque port town on the west coast of the country.
As the Norwegian royal joked with Hello! ahead of the Aug. 31 ceremony, “The surroundings are gorgeous – it’s one of the most beautiful places I know. Even if there are a few glitches, we can still gaze at the stunning scenery.”
The celebration kicked off with welcome drinks on Aug. 29, bucking traditional dress codes and instead asking guests to come in “sexy and cool” outfits. The second day of the extravaganza continued with guests enjoying a boat trip along the Geiranger Fjord, a Unesco World Heritage Site, followed by a Latin American-themed pre-wedding party.
And for the big day itself, Märtha, 52, and Durek, 49, were married at the historic, four-star Hotel Union with around 350 guests looking on. There to witness their mother’s happy day were her daughters Maud, 21, Leah, 19, and Emma, 16, who she shared with her late ex-husband Ari Behn (The couple divorced in 2017).
