Princess Martha Louise of Norway Finds Love Again

Princess Martha Louise & Lover Durek

Princess Märtha Louise of Norway is dating an L.A.-based shaman who has roster of famous clients, including Gwyneth Paltrow.

Two years after her divorce, the 47-year-old daughter of King Harald V and Queen Sonja shared on Instagram that she is “in love” after meeting her “twin flame.” The lucky man is Shaman Durek, a spiritual guide and healer who has worked with Paltrow and Selma Blair.

“When you meet your twin flame, you know,” wrote the mom of three, who’s fourth in line to the throne in Norway. “I have been lucky enough to have met mine. [Shaman Durek] has changed my life, like he does with so many. He has made me realize that unconditional love actually exists here on this planet. He embraces all of me without question or fear. He makes me laugh more than anyone, has the most profound wisdom to share and all the bits in between from the diversity of his being. I feel so happy and blessed that he is my boyfriend.”

Her announcement was met with criticism — Durek, 43, was called a “conman” for his non-medicinal healing practices and she was told that, “If a princess wants to love shaman she” should give up her “princess title. Poor Norway!” Though she wasn’t having any of that.

“To those of you who feel the need to criticize: Hold your horses. It is not up to you to choose for me or to judge me. I don’t choose my man to satisfy any of you or the norms or boxes you have chosen in your mind for me to be in. I don’t thrive there, nor do I exist in your illusion about me. I choose from love.” She added that Shaman Durek “fulfills” her and said that she’s “super happy.”
