Veruschka Urquhart, the mother of Durek Verrett, who is married to Princess Märtha Louise of Norway, has died on January 28 at the age of 82. The news was confirmed by her daughter, Demi De La Nuit, who stated that her mother died peacefully and lived a long and good life. This marks a significant moment for Verrett, as he had reportedly been estranged from his mother in recent years.

In addition to the personal loss for Verrett and his family, Urquhart’s passing comes amid a backdrop of public disputes between her and her son, which have drawn media attention and speculation about their relationship. Reportedly, the two had limited contact in the years leading up to her death, which may complicate the mourning process. The nature of their relationship indicates that any public response from Verrett could be reflective of this estrangement.

Urquhart’s legacy extends beyond her immediate family; she was a figure within the royal context due to her son’s marriage, making her passing noteworthy in Norwegian media and possibly impacting public perceptions of family dynamics within the Norwegian royal family. As details emerge surrounding her death, attention may also focus on how the royal family, including Prince Märtha Louise, reacts to this news, potentially shaping the narrative around family relations in the public eye.
