Norway’s crown princess breaks silence, claiming she was ‘manipulated and deceived’ by Epstein

The interview was recorded on Thursday, the final day of her son Marius Borg Høiby’s rape trial, which began at the start of February, days after the Epstein files involving Mette-Marit were released. A verdict is not due until June, but it is clear she waited for the trial to end before speaking publicly.
