That was kind of my question too--what are they doing in NY, other than having fun!

If you look back at the old thread, I think you can see that the question has been answered there.

But they're writing books there.

The yellow and red dress Märtha Louise wore to the Spanish wedding, got 7400 Nkr in the auction it was in. The money goes to an UNICEF project.

Translation of the articles
The childresn book she has written has gotten very good reviews in all the press, it is described as funny and with beautiful drawings.
The story of he book: The Danish King and his british Queen tries very hard to be Norwegian, King Haakon runs around with a copy of Snorre, and their little son Olav has to do alot of skiing and playing in the snow which is what all Norwegian children does, but that is very difficult whilst wearing a crown, everytime Olav destroys his crown he has to sit on the throne for 3 days wearing the crown as a punishment, the King had decided, that was until the King also destroyed his crown whilst skiing so therefore they decided that the Crowns should rest in Trondheim (where thay are today, next to the church Märtha got married in) and that is the story of why the royals dont wear a crown Märtha wrote this story because so many of the children she meets wonders where her crown is.


Some has critezised her for using her title in a commersial way, and she says as she does not recieve any money from the state she should be allowed to make her own money, it was recently discussed on Norwegian commercial TV and he says she found thet ironic since tht was practicall a half hour wih comercal for her book.


The first interview is about the book and also about her grandfather King Olav, she tells about his dog Troll and when the Kings very old Lady in waiting was going to take it for a walk the dog ran as fast as it could dragging tha poor woman after him, and that she used to laugh waching it from the window.

She also did the princess and the pea test when she was younger to check if she was a real princess, so she got a pea from the Kitchen but she slept like a stone the intired night

She used to find the critesism much more difficult but now she does not care so much even if she reads all that is written about her. She reads fairytales to Maud Angelica but she wants to read much faster and skipps some pages, she likes being pregnant but it is different this time as it is her 2. baby. Ari want 5 children but it does not sound like she agrees with that. Likes to live in NY where she can be more private and annonymous, can go play with Maud in the park and noone takes notice of them.
