Dolph Lundgren and Emma Krokdal are officially married after having a private wedding ceremony in Mykonos. The couple became engaged in 2020 and eventually decided to tie the knot in front of a small group of family and friends.
Newlyweds talk to Many people Magazine about their decision to get married and explained that they had to “reject [their] wedding plans many times” due to Covid-19 and other health issues. They added, “We feel the time is finally right to celebrate love, life and happiness—in the land of the Gods.”

Dolph Lundgren Opens Up About His 8-Year Cancer Battle
Lundgren recently opened up about his cancer battle, which began about eight years ago. During an appearance on “In Depth with Graham Besinger,” the actor revealed that his first diagnosis was in 2015 with lung cancer.
The Swedish actress shared that she eventually went into remission after treatment, but then the cancer returned aggressively in 2020. When she received her second diagnosis, doctors said it was terminal and told Lundgren she had about 2 or 3 years to live. He got a second opinion and began receiving treatment for cancer, which had shrunk them significantly.
During the interview, Lundgren wore a hospital gown and talked about his recent surgery for cancer. He said, “The day after my surgery, they removed one tumor, then they removed two more they found and three more small ones. Hopefully it gets cleaned up, if it dies, it dies.”

During the Besinger interview, Lundgren also talked about how he got a cancer diagnosis in 2020. He said, “In 2020, I came back to Sweden and I had acid reflux, I didn’t know what it was so I did an MRI. They found there were several more tumors around the area.”
When doctors told “The Expendables” actress that they had found a larger tumor in her heart, she quickly recovered. He said, “At that point I started to feel that this was something serious. The surgeon called me and said it had grown. It’s too big. It has grown to the size of a small lemon.”
Lundgren explained that when doctors gave him a timeline of 2 to 3 years, he knew he didn’t have long. He added, “I could tell in his voice he thought it was lacking. I think that’s for sure.”

Lundgren also opened up to Besinger about his suspicions that steroid use contributed to his cancer battle. He shared that he used steroid treatments “back in the ’80s, ’90s” but wasn’t sure if they actually had “something to do with cancer.”
The “Black Water” star said, “I think about it, you always think you’ve made a mistake. I think there may be a connection between testosterone therapy and cancer. I used steroids when I was young, on and off for maybe ten years. Depends on the kind of film I’m making.”
Emma, the new Mrs. Lundgren, also talks to Besinger about how cancer affects her husband’s body. He said, “His mouth hurts so much, his hands hurt and he can’t eat anything. It’s a struggle, he’s losing weight.” He continued, “We realized it was much worse than we thought, they started talking about tumors in the lungs, the stomach, the spine, outside the kidneys.”
