The couple is unconcerned by their age gap
The age difference between the engaged pair is 38 years. As a result, their age gap has gotten a lot of attention from the internet – even more than their romance. All of the age-related comments, on the other hand, do not worry Lundgren and Krokdal, who believe that “the age difference is not an issue.”
Krokdal discussed how her family and friends have been supportive of her relationship with the movie actor in an interview with Dagbladet magazine in January 2020. She also discussed the nasty feedback she received from other strangers and internet users.
Everything has been wonderfully nice from family, friends, and acquaintances. I was a little concerned at first, but I was pleasantly surprised by the positive response we received. It’s been a little more negative from strangers.
In her interview, the Norwegian also stated that her fiancé is a kind and compassionate person, even though his “unpredictable” career keeps him busy.
He is a very compassionate and kind person, and he is extremely easy to be around. It’s not easy to find someone with whom you get along so well, therefore I think we both value each other’s presence.
Dolph Lundgren has previously been married twice
Dolph Lundgren, who played Rocky IV, has been married twice. His first wife was Peri Momm, with whom he had a brief relationship. In 1991, they married and divorced the following year.
There is, however, no definitive evidence of the actor’s marriage to Peri Momm. Peri Momm was once Dolph’s wife, according to multiple sources. After that, in 1994, Lundgren married fashion designer Anette Qviberg. After having two daughters, Ida and Greta Lundgren, the husband-and-wife combination enlarged their family. However, his marriage to Anette ended in divorce in 2011.
He keeps up a positive relationship with his ex-wife and daughter
Despite their divorce, Dolph and his ex-wife Anette have a good friendship. He referred to his wife as his best friend a year before their divorce, in 2010. He admitted that physical attraction only lasted a short time and that what made a relationship strong was the emotional component.
The actor has always kept his word and kept a nice relationship with his ex-wife. The two have been photographed together at several events. Furthermore, in 2017, the estranged husband and wife were photographed enjoying fun together on the beach in Marbella.

Their daughters have been the unifying factor between the ex-couple. Dolph has stated numerous times that his girls have assisted him in opening up because he was very self-centered in his early years. In response, the star has lavished his children with love and support, even assisting them in their dating pursuits.
Dolph Lundgren’s Quick Bio | Age, Films, and Net Worth
Dolph Lundgren was born on November 3, 1957, in Stockholm, Sweden, to Karl Lundgren, a Swedish government engineer, and economist, and Sigrid Birgitta (Tjerneld), a language teacher. The actor stands at 6 feet 5 inches tall (1.96 m).
For the 1980/81 season, the Swedish national was the European champion in karate. His karate training complemented his handsome physique, making him a fashion hit. To make ends meet, he worked extra shifts as a nightclub bouncer. He met actress Grace Jones while working as a bouncer. Dolph was first in charge of Grace’s protection and subsequently became her lover. In the mid-80s, the former couple dated for four years.
After being recommended for a small role in the 1895 James Bond film A View to a Kill, he began his film career. After that, he shot to fame after portraying Soviet fighter Ivan Drago in Sylvester Stallone’s popular action-adventure film franchise Rocky.
In the 1980s and 1990s, the 63-year-old actor began to appear in more action-packed films. In the last two decades of the twentieth century, his extraordinarily ripped form made him an integral part of action genre films.
He also appeared in The Expendables, among some of Hollywood’s biggest names including Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Arnold Swargenneger, and Jet Li, in the most expensively assembled action cast movie ever. He has approximately 100 acting credits to his record, the majority of which are in the action genre. He’s also dabbled in the director’s chair, directing more than ten low-budget films.
In addition, the actor is a health and fitness evangelist. He still looks as fit as he did when he faced Stallone in Rocky IV, and he attributes his toned physique to his healthy eating habits and regular gym workouts. His stay in Hollywood has paid off financially, as he has multiple commercial hits to his credit. His net worth of $18 million reflects his professional achievements.
