Can someone please tell me who pays for Martha Louise's homes & lifestyle
Between her money and what Ari makes it can't be that much....
I heard that she doesn't get any money for her princess duties since she dropprd the HRH & married a commoner (or she choose this) is that true?
i would say ml also gets something from the government, doesn't she? maybe not directly but throught king harald...

Ari Benh actually makes quite a lot of money from his books, and I remember reading that after Märtha-Louise has paid for the house and other stuff, Ari earns more money than her. I'm sure Märtha-Louise also has a nice sum of money left from her inheritances etc, and adding that with both of their incomes - they are set for a comfortable life.
Märtha Louise only receives money from King Harald when she performs official functions, otherwise she gets nada.
That is ofcourse only the official vertion, there has been several reports in the media that she gets money of the King for other things also.
I think it is safe to say that they lead a very comftarble life and at the moment Märtha is really getting the best of both lifestyles, she did not have to pay inheritance tax for her summer house because she got it a couple of days before the new long planned law was pased. She gets special treatment for her building plans that noone else would get. She can spend all the time she wants with her children and provide them with discretion she could not, had she been doing the royal thing full time. She also gets to publish storys that she would most likely not have gotten published if she did not have Princess in fron of her name, and she gets to perform with the best gospel choir in Norway....
She can take out a year maternity leave, according to Norwegian rules. Of course, some of that is by choice, and she doesn't have to be out all year. I'm not clear on the rules beyond that.
