Atlantic Crossing – Fact vs Fiction – a series full of mistakes that many viewers will simply accept as facts

By FDR Presidential Library & Museum - 73-113:95, CC BY 2.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=43606596 Royal Central’s Senior Europe Correspondent Oskar Aanmoen, who is based in Oslo, talks us through the inaccuracies contained within Atlantic Crossing – an eight-part series looking at the plight of the Norwegian Crown Princess during World War II. Atlantic Crossing is now airing on PBS in the United States and Canada. It is an eight-part mini-series, looking at the Crown Princess of Norway’s escape to safety in the United States alongside her children during the Second World War, as well as her friendship with American President Franklin D. Roosevelt. While some are enjoying this latest royal story encapsulated in to fictional life, for me this is a series full of mistakes that I fear will be the lasting image of the Norwegian Royal Family during World War II.

LIKELY:  “There were many rumors about their relationship many at the time thought [it was] romantic,” says series creator, director, co-writer and executive producer, Alexander Eik. “We do not know for certain that was the case, but we know that President Roosevelt was infatuated with Martha and this has been confirmed by many sources [including] two of his grandchildren. … Early in the war, British Intelligence [also] reported from Washington to London that the President was infatuated.” It’s true that in his spare time between 1941-1945, FDR’s most frequent companion was Martha, though others were often with them as well. “We have assumed President Roosevelt had romantic feelings for the Crown Princess,” sums up series’ co-writer and historian, Linda May Kallestein. “That does not mean they had a physical relationship.”
