History of Lundgren and Crookedahl
Lundgren is originally from Sweden and Krokdal is from Norway, according to Fox News. The couple married last summer after meeting in 2019 at a gym where Lundgren was a member and Crookdale worked as a personal trainer.
“I felt sorry for her because she's a little younger than me and has to deal with all these appointments and all the doctor's appointments, but she was very good about it and very supportive,” he said of Crookdale after their wedding. “I think she brought us together. She's like an angel sent to help.”
Unfortunately, Lundgren and Crookdale were forced to postpone their wedding for years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We chose to celebrate our love by getting married at our villa in Mykonos with family and a few close friends,” they said at the time. “With the coronavirus and the long road of difficult medical treatments, we have had to postpone our wedding plans several times.”
Fortunately, the two are happier than ever together these days.
“Emma is amazing,” Lundgren said of his wife last month. “It's great. Great support.”
He continued: “We are working together on a group of projects.” “She's very smart, she's very smart for her age or any age. So we produce things together.”

Lundgren and Crookedahl work together on projects
Although Crookedall is nearly 40 years his junior, Lundgren said last year that she is “very mature for her age, for sure. She's had an interesting life. She came here from a small town in Norway. She was married here, and she went through a difficult divorce.” She went through a lot of things that most young people her age don't have to deal with.
“So it's quite mature and at the same time, I think I'm very young,” he continued.
Lundgren just directed and stars alongside Krokdal in the new film A wanted manwhich they produced together.
“We have another project. We are working on a comedy,” he said.

At a time when illegal immigration is spiraling out of control in this country, it's refreshing to see Lundgren and his wife taking the legal route to becoming American citizens. We wish them many years of happiness in this great nation to come!
