In a revelation that blurs the lines between royalty and the otherworldly, Shaman Durek Verrett, the controversial husband of Norway's Princess Martha Louise, has made a startling confession in the couple's new Netflix documentary. The self-styled spiritual healer claimed he genuinely believed he was not human but an alien entity sent to Earth.
The documentary, which promises an intimate look at the couple's unconventional life, delves deep into Durek's unorthodox beliefs and how they have shaped his relationship with the princess. The American shaman described a childhood filled with a profound sense of not belonging, leading him to conclude he was extraterrestrial.
A Childhood of Otherworldly Convictions
Durek recounts his early years, marked by a persistent feeling of being an outsider. This sense of alienation wasn't merely social; he became convinced that his origins were not of this planet. This core belief formed the foundation of his later spiritual path and his self-proclaimed healing abilities.
His marriage to Princess Martha Louise, fourth in line to the Norwegian throne, has been a source of intense scrutiny and public debate. The princess, who has herself embraced alternative spirituality, stepped back from royal duties in 2022, citing her relationship with Durek and their commercial ventures as the reason.
Royal Ripples and Public Scrutiny
The union has not been without its controversies. Durek's past statements and practices have frequently drawn criticism, placing the Norwegian Royal Family in an uncomfortable spotlight. The release of their joint documentary, 'A Different Kind of Love', is set to ignite further discussion about the intersection of modern spirituality, personal belief, and royal tradition.
For many, the shaman's latest comments about his alien origins will be seen as another eccentric chapter in a highly unusual royal romance. For others, it raises questions about the beliefs of a man married into one of Europe's oldest monarchies.
