Mette-Marit - NEWS

[Gemsheal]

Well, Marius is fairly tall - slim; could have nice muscles with a little effort at the gym - a firm jaw, striking blue eyes.  With a good haircut - a few pointers on walking and posing for the camera - I think I could (objectively) have seen him as a clothing model.  But I doubt he ever had the dedication or work ethic such a career would have taken.

Honestly I dont see what Marius has to be pissed about, regarding the RF. He went from being just the illegitimate son of an undereducated single mother with, as wiki puts it, a “disadvantaged past” and a convicted felon father to being incredibly privileged. I believe his grandfather is a felon as well. How she managed to land the Crown Prince of Norway, who could have had anyone,  I will never understand.And given what a beating the media has given Prince Andrew about his friendship with Epstein, no one seems to care at all that Mette Marit was friends with him too.

The Haakon-MM union made no sense to me either until I read some royal gossip a while back on a non-royal gossip site. That person said that allegedly, MM was one of Epstein’s party girls on the European circuit, if you catch my drift, but she “graduated” out when she ensnared Haakon. Their union is no coincidence, no grand love story. Haakon may have looked like a baby-faced dork as a young man, but he was heavily into “partying” (code for substance use and more). MM knows the skeletons in his closet, and if you believe what was online, this was a quid pro quo relationship, or one of mutually assured destruction if their secrets were to ever get out. It explains why the NRF gave a wide berth to MM as she is capable of unleashing a massive crisis in the royal family if she ever decides she’s done with Haakon. This is why she was bold enough to still associate with Epstein, allegedly have an affair with another man, and generally have a poor work ethic. What we’re seeing with Marius is just an extension of her arrogant, devil-may-care attitude. She doesn’t care her son is a raging addict, those women were floozys anyways in her eyes, and anyone just try and criticize her, she thinks she’s untouchable, and because of the NRF, she is.

I hope the NRF have sent an undercover minder to keep an eye on him

Not a bad idea, but he's there with a friend. Maybe the family is glad to have him out of the way during that circus of a wedding. I cannot imagine that it is a joyful event for the family.
It also crossed my mind if Marius might be revengeful towards the "friends" who sold the horrible pitures to "Bild" paper. As he is known for violent behaviour  taking revenge might get him into even more trouble.   Also, being away from his criminal peer group he has no access to drugs.
Maybe that is also a reason why the lawyer let him go out of the country.

Oh he’ll have access to drugs in Italy, no doubt about it. There is a famous case from a few years back about those two California young men who killed a young, newlywed police officer in Rome when they went searching for cocaine while on vacation with their family. So many of those news stories you hear of weird murders at vacation sites are often drug related crimes.

Marius jetting off to Italy is just another example of the piss-poor parenting he received. How permissive, lax and irresponsible are you that you let your self-admitted addict and mentally ill son hop off to a party mecca right after being arrested for assaulting a woman, theft, vandalism etc?! This is affluenza at its worst! There is no way Marius is making any meaningful income on his own. MM and Haakon are providing a grand lifestyle for him, and probably a generous allowance, which is funding a jet-set lifestyle in the face of criminal charges.

Even though he is an adult, normal parents would have shut him down. Circle the wagons. Take away his money. Stage an intervention. Get him in the best rehab facility away from any temptations. Sacrificed their own fun times to make sure he was getting the help he needed.

Instead MM and Haakon are at the clown show wedding, partying til 3 am, celebrating the union of born-again virgin ML in her mile long cathedral train white gown and a convicted felon HIV+ charlatan, while their addict son is in Pisa boozing it up.

It beggars belief that they are so committed to keeping up appearances playing happy families when everyone knows they are neck deep in trouble. Are they so arrogant that they think the public is that stupid?

No doubt this will end in tears.

I don’t think the term “illegitimate” has been applied to a person in 30 years, has it? We all have relatives born “out of wedlock” …

[Duchess of Verona]

I personally dont have any relatives who were born out of wedlock aka illegitimate. As a legal matter, the correct term would be illegitimate when it comes to inheritance and legal rights. It’s part of the reason that the surrogacy speculation of another royal couple matters. Children born to a surrogate are illegitimate in that country and not eligible for titles, etc.

I didn't know that Haakon was into "partying" thx for the info...

How could he possible, she was nowhere close to those New York circles in 1999/2000 when she was a very new mum who could probably hardly afford a ticket to NY.

I have never read anything serious about Haakon beeing in to drugs before or after. He was certainly into house music, what he has said he regretted was that his relationship made it sound like the whole house music scene were just about drugs and that he should have deffended that, and that many people in that environemnt was hurt/angry that they were portrayed like that.

That reads like fan fiction to me. Well, anti-fan fiction I guess.

For a brief moment there was a Norwegian started message board, a bit like RD based on dislike for MM. I don’t recall them writing anything like this. They were quite unimpressed by her choices - the reality tv, her lack of education, her past choices of men and drug use.

I personally think her friendship? with Epstein reflect the obvious arrogance we see in many of her choices. As Haakon doesn’t seem terribly arrogant (maybe he hides it better?), I definitely think the many problems are caused by MM more than Haakon.

Yeah, I’m sceptical too. I’ve heard that “[name here] was a yacht girl/paid to party/prostitute” rumour about almost every pretty woman who has married in to a royal family, and about countless actresses. I seriously doubt it’s true in the vast majority of the cases. It might be true in one or two, the world being what it is. But I don’t see how MM would have been in Epstein’s circles before meeting Haakon, he was focused on the US with detours into UK/Euro high society thanks to Ghislaine, and MM was a single mother in Norway. It seems more likely that she was collected by Epstein after she was Crown Princess of Norway and she enjoyed his lavish hospitality and celebrity stuffed parties without asking questions because she has poor judgement and not enough oversight.

I think that's a very plausible scenario VM.

[loveofenglishtradition]

I find such accusations or rumours just vile

I agree. I think if she'd been given half a chance she would have jumped on being one of Epstein's party dolls, but she has never had the "it" factor it would take to catch Ghislaine's eye. She and Haakon both enjoy partying a lot, and who put on the biggest parties but Epstein? Once she was CPss she was verrry attractive to that crowd.

[VanillaMoomin]

As far as I can make out, Marius has been given a restraining order preventing him from contacting the young woman he attacked last month. She has been seen with him after the attack and there was some speculation they were back together, but now she has asked for a restraining order and been given one. This suggests to me she wasn’t the young woman Marius was seen drinking with in Italy?

(The translation seems off, the headline says that Marius got a restraining order against the woman, but I’m pretty sure that’s a machine translation error because lower down the police say the reason for the order was because the woman wanted it)
