Norwegian Princess’ Boyfriend Draws Flak for “Flirting” Online After Suicide of Royal’s Ex-Husband

While some social media users went on to criticize the self-proclaimed shaman’s alleged inappropriate remark, at least one netizen expressed their doubts about whether the comment was made before or after the princess’ former spouse’s suicide.

Durek Verrett, the bisexual boyfriend of Princess Martha Louise of Norway, has recently come under fire for allegedly making a flirtatious remark on a social media post by a Women’s Sportswear model only a day after the royal’s ex-husband committed suicide, the Daily Mail reports.

According to the newspaper, Durek, who styles himself as a shaman, commented on the model’s Instagram post, which depicted the lady clad in a bikini, standing near a pool at five-star Intercontinental Hotel in Phu Quoc, Vietnam.

Though the comment has apparently since being deleted, the post witnessed an influx of Norwegian-speaking social media users who berated Durek.

“Ari was our shining star. One of the greatest. Durek can never compare to what Ari was for us”, one user wrote.

“I have a screenshot of the very first comment he posted. ‘That body’ and I love you. I would say in all modesty that man is a shame to himself!” added another.

One netizen, however, appeared uncertain about the timing of Durek’s comment.

Ari Behn, a Norwegian author and painter who was married to Princess Martha Louise of Norway and who fathered their three children, apparently committed suicide on Christmas Day, 2019.
