“I was looking for the boxing room, and I just grabbed somebody who was going up the stairs. She looked like a trainer, and I said, ‘Hey excuse me, where’s the boxing room?’ She turned around and it was like, ‘Oh s—.’ It was one of those flashes where you go, ‘Uh-oh,'” he confessed. “I didn’t know why she liked me at all, but I suppose she saw something there. She didn’t know about my acting career, she didn’t know anything about me.”
Dolph Lundgren had always been looking forward to marrying Emma Krokdal
After being together for months, Lundgren took the relationship to another level by proposing to Krokdal in June 2020. He shared the exciting news on Instagram, posting a picture of his soon-to-be bride proudly displaying her engagement ring. “Something very special happened here in Sweden,” the actor wrote in the caption.
Following the proposal, the 65-year-old had been looking forward to marrying his heartthrob. During the Minions: The Rise of Gru premiere in June 2022, the actor openly discussed his intentions to marry Krokdal. “It’s just because we lost two years, so hopefully next year, we’re gonna go to Scandinavia, and you can’t do it in the winter, or you’ll be in the middle of a snowstorm,” Lundgren explained. “So hopefully we’ll do it maybe next spring or something in Norway or Sweden.”
