	Guardian \| Norway's crown prince defies critics to marry his unconventional girlfriend
		The prince's critics, mainly strict Protestants, say he should set a moral example to his 4.5m subjects, but opinion polls showed that most Norwegians are unflustered at the prospect of a future queen who has admitted hanging out at ecstasy- and cocaine-fuelled house parties in the 1990s.
		The bright and articulate prince, who has often declared that nothing in his girlfriend's background would stand in the way of marriage, is a hugely popular representative of a royal family that is markedly less stuffy than many others - and is allowed a lot more privacy.
		Haakon's father, King Harald, has supported his son's choice, perhaps because he himself had to battle for almost a decade to persuade his father, King Olav, to allow him to marry a commoner, his childhood sweetheart Sonja Haraldsen, who is now Queen.
