Dolph Lundgren enjoys beach day with fiance Emma Krokdal, 38 years his junior

Action star Dolph Lundgren, 62, has been spotted enjoying a day at the beach with his new fiance, a 24-year-old personal trainer.

Action star Dolph Lundgren, 62, has been spotted enjoying a day at the beach with his new fiance, a personal trainer 38 years his junior.

Swedish actor Lundgren, who rose to fame after starring in Rocky IV in 1985 alongside Sylvester Stallone, made the announcement that he was engaged to Norwegian personal trainer Emma Krokdal, 24, on Instagram back in June.

The pair first went public with their relationship in January this year.

But snarky commenters at the time flooded the post with tongue-in-cheek well-wishes deliberately confusing Krokdal with one of Lundgren’s two daughters, aged 19 and 24.

After high-profile relationships with singer Grace Jones and American model Paula Barbieri in the 1980s, Lundgren married jewellery designer Anette Qviberg, nine years his junior, in 1994. The couple had two daughters before divorcing in 2011.

Lundgren’s engagement news comes as another actor wed his much younger fiance in June: Actor Dennis Quaid, 66, and his fiance Laura Savoie, 27, were married at a seaside resort on June 2, People magazine reported. Quaid previously said it was never his intention to find someone Savoie’s age.

And last week, actor Sean Penn, 59, confirmed he’d wed Australian actress Leila George, 28, after dating for four years.

“I am madly in love with a wonderful, extraordinary Australian woman,” Penn said in an interview with news.com.au before the nuptials took place.
