– That is not how you do

“Rebel Royals” Sparks Controversy: Critics Call Netflix Documentary “Unfair” and “Disrespectful”
The newly released Netflix documentary, “Rebel Royals: An Unlikely Love Story,” chronicling the romance between Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway and Morten borg, is facing backlash from royal experts and raising questions about its portrayal of the Norwegian royal family.
The documentary details the tumultuous relationship, marked by Borg’s troubled past, before their eventual marriage and Mette-Marit’s acceptance into the royal fold. While some viewers have been captivated by the love story,others are criticizing the film for its sensationalism and lack of respect for the monarchy.
Doubts Confirmed
Those who previously expressed reservations about Morten Borg have reportedly had their concerns validated after viewing the documentary. According to reports,individuals who questioned his character before the film’s release now feel their initial impressions were confirmed.
“Unfair and Disrespectful”
German royal house expert Catrin Bartenbach has been particularly vocal in her criticism. She describes the documentary as “reality TV well made at a superficial level,” while acknowledging the princess is portrayed as “warm and sympathetic.” the documentary has received a largely critical reception in Germany.
Bartenbach’s comments reflect a broader concern that the documentary prioritizes drama over nuance, possibly damaging the reputation of the Norwegian royal family. The film’s focus on Borg’s past and the challenges faced by Mette-Marit in gaining acceptance raises questions about the ethics of revisiting such a sensitive period in their lives for entertainment purposes.
– Completely private
What she perceive
Slaughtered: – Wasted opportunity
“The Norwegian royal house has been transformed into a circus. Netflix sells the tickets,” she writes,and further claims that the rest of the royal family is reduced to involuntary extras.
“The series is Hollywood smooth and lacks any nuance.It’s a slaughter of the royal house’s reputation,” says historian Hilde Øvreeide to Dagbladet.
She believes the series “Royal” on Netflix is a missed opportunity to portray the Norwegian royal family in a more thoughtful way. Øvreeide is critical of how the series focuses on sensationalism and drama, rather than providing a nuanced and accurate depiction of the royal family’s role in Norwegian society.
## The castle breaks the silence
She specifically refers to the stage where Durbe meets Harald and Sonja wearing Kimono and cowboy boots, while the camera zooms in on a dissatisfied royal couple.
On Friday, Princess Märtha Louise (53) met in Asker and Bærum District Court for a mediation meeting.
## – a major weakness
Danish B.T.s Entertainment editor, Fie West, experiences the documentary as “bizarre”.
– The documentary is in many ways quite special to see, because it is so far from something we normally associate with members of the royal family, she says in a comment on the newspaper.
Documentary on Princess Märtha Louise draws Criticism, Compared to reality TV
A new documentary featuring Princess Märtha Louise of Norway and her partner, Durk Verrett, is facing backlash, with some critics suggesting it resembles reality television more than a royal portrayal.
“There is more Kardashians than royalty over Princess Märtha Louise and Durk Verrett in this documentary,” says Fie West, entertainment editor at BT.
West notes growing public reaction to the film, with many highlighting what they perceive as a lack of change in Märtha and Verrett’s practices.

Cut Out at the Last Minute
The self-proclaimed shaman has,as is well known,claimed that he could cure everything from Corona to cancer without commercial medicine. The documentary states that Durbe himself is ill, and on questions about why he cannot cure himself, he explains that he is a “wounded healer”. The theme is not discussed in more detail.
– this cannot continue
The Swedish Deputy Editor and among sweden’s foremost royal house experts, Johan T. Lindwall, is strong and clear in his comment on the Netflix documentary.
He states that it is strange that Durbe now comes with a whole new description of his meeting with the royal couple than he has stated earlier. In 2019, he said that “the king loves me”. Now he says the opposite, that “the king did not like me”. This is directly rude by Princess Märtha’s husband. In this way,he throws the royal couple under the bus.
