Veteran Swedish actor Dolph Lundgren has found new love and happiness with his 27-year-old bride Emma Krokdal. But their relationship has been tested by Lundgren’s long battle with cancer.
They were a knockout on their wedding day at a villa in Mykonos, Greece. Actor Dolph Lundgren (65) and his fiancé Emma Krokdal (27) recently said their I do’s in front of a handful of friends and family in a private ceremony in the land of the gods.
The wedding was a celebration of love, life, and happiness. The legendary actor is still undergoing cancer treatment, but he is doing well. He is grateful for the support of his wife and family, and he is determined to beat the disease.
The 65-year-old legendary actor was first diagnosed with kidney cancer in 2015. He underwent surgery to remove the tumor, but the cancer returned in 2020. He was then diagnosed with liver cancer as well.
The couple, who began dating in 2019, told People magazine that it was the right time to tie the knot.
“With both Covid and a long road of challenging medical treatments, we’ve had to push our marriage plans many times,” they said.
Lundgren underwent extensive treatment, including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. He was told that he had only two or three years to live.
But Lundgren refused to give up. He continued to fight cancer, and he found a new appreciation for life. He also found love with Emma Krokdal, who was by his side throughout his treatment.
Lundgren and Krokdal have a 38-year age gap, but to them, their age difference is not an issue. They are both passionate about their work, and they enjoy spending time together.
According to Krokdal, she is attracted to Lundgren’s intelligence, strength, and sense of humor. She also admires his commitment to his family and friends.
