Overview
- New reporting from Se og Hør cites archival images and FBI-related emails that place Crown Prince Haakon in repeated contact with Boris Nikolic, a close associate of Jeffrey Epstein.
- Messages attributed to Nikolic describe a small Davos-area dinner in 2012 that included Haakon and Mette-Marit, with Nikolic writing that he liked Haakon very much.
- Separate emails from 2013 say Nikolic was in nonstop touch with Haakon and that Haakon would stay with Mette-Marit during her surgery.
- A rediscovered party photo and a later deleted selfie from Paris in 2013 show Haakon with Nikolic while Mette-Marit was elsewhere.
- Asked about the matter, Haakon told VG he did not plan to discuss it and said he does not read his wife’s emails, as critics warn palace silence is deepening public mistrust.
