The couple already lives together in Oslo and is planning a wedding in the coming days. The time and place of the ceremony remain secret to preserve the intimacy of the event, VG writes.
As reported, in September 2024, Carlsen opposed the renewal of Russia and Belarus' membership in the International Federation (FIDE). The Norwegian grandmaster disagreed with the plans of FIDE President Arkady Dvorkovich to return the representatives of the aggressor country to the organization's tournaments under national flags.
