Crown Princess Mette-Marit speaks on TV. She talks about Jeffrey Epstein. He was a serious criminal from the USA. Mette-Marit met him several times before. This was between the years 2011 and 2013.
The princess says: She did not know about his crimes then. She feels tricked by him. Today she feels sorry for the contact. She says sorry to the victims. The meetings were a big mistake.
Critics do not like the interview. They say: The princess gives no clear answers. Many questions stay open. The Royal House in Norway is criticized for this.
