In the podcast, Märtha Louise opens up about the difficult time after Ari Behn’s death, where she reveals, among other things, that she suffered from depression in connection with her grief.
Märtha Louise was married to Ari Behn from 2002 to 2017. When Behn chose to take his own life, the first day of Christmas a little over two years ago, he left behind the three daughters he had with the Norwegian princess.
In the podcast, Märtha says that one of the most difficult things about the grief process was seeing the daughters face grief at such a young age. Shortly after the podcast episode, the Norwegian princess was on the front pages of both People and Daily Mail.
– Suffered from depression
«Princess Märtha Louise of Norway says she was ‘stuck in a pit of depression’ following death of ex-husband Ari Behn, who took his own life on Christmas Day in 2019», skriver britiske Daily Mail.
American People also does not put anything between the lines in the headings.
«Princess Martha Louise Was in a ‘Pit of Depression’ Following Ex-Husband’s Death by Suicide», er tittelen i det populære magasinet.
With her royal title, Princess Märtha Louise has always been of interest to the international press. In recent years, however, interest has increased considerably.
In May 2019, the princess surprised with the news that she and Durek Verrett (47), a self-proclaimed American shaman, had become a couple. Since then, the criticism has raged in time and out of time against the couple. Among other things, for the way the couple used the princess title of Märtha Louise in commercial contexts, and for Verretts at times controversial statements.

The princess also has freceived much attention for its openness. Not only around the death of Ari Behn, but also around topics about high sensitivity and feeling different.
The online newspaper has been in contact with the manager of Princess Märtha Louise, Carina Carlsen, who does not want to comment on the matter.
Brutally honest talk
Also in the brand new podcast episode “Zoom O’Clock”, the princess surprises with the openness, and speaks brutally honestly about the grief she experienced after Behn’s death.
– I think it is important that you as a human being have to experience grief at some point during life. Unfortunately, my children met it at a very young age, says Märtha Louise in the podcast and continues:
– But we all have to go through it once, and the most important thing I think you learn from grief is that it is useless to walk around it. You have to go through it.
Märtha Louise further tells how, during her grief, she developed a kind of tunnel vision that made her go into what she describes as “a pit of depression”.
– You can end up in a depression like I did, and you can get out of it. The important thing is to talk about these things. Mental health, and how important it is that we learn to deal with those parts of ourselves as well, she says.
