Norway’s Princess Martha Louise always keeps people guessing over what would she do next. Her latest project though, as gained little profit despite the media attention.
Last year, Martha Louise began the Astarte Education with partner Elisabeth Samnøy, which was meant to help students “come in contact with their own angels,” and offered healing and meditation among other alternative courses.
“It was while I worked with horses that I took up contact with angels,” Princess Martha Louise wrote on Astarte’s web site. “I’ve later realized the value of this enormous gift, and will gladly share it with others.”
The school though, has seen little profit, and a venture logged an operating loss of NOK 92,376, reported NA24.no. That resulted in an after-tax loss of NOK 61,729.
Despite this, Martha and Samnoy are keen in keeping the business going.
The Astarte Education is latest career move for the unpredictable princess. She has ventured into writing children’s books and acting out fairy tales. She has received criticism for taking advantage of her royal role, and enjoying many privileges. A recent Swedish documentary called a “royal Pippi Longstocking” and that she is “not like other royals.”
“I’ve also grown more confident over the years,” she said. “It has to do with finding out what you really want to do, and not just doing all the things that other people demand of me.”
