“For me, age is just a number. It really doesn’t matter. I mean, we’ll all be dead in a hundred years, at least most of us, and none of this will matter,” the actor said.
Dolph Lundgren was attending the Throwback Party at Puzzle in West Hollywood when he commented on his relationship. The “Expendables” star said there will always be haters when you are “in the spotlight.”
Krokdal also spoke about her marriage to the Hollywood star. She said Dolph Lundgren is “so special because we come from similar places and had a very similar upbringing.”
The actor is Swedish and she is Norwegian, and according to Krokdal, that was something that connected them from the very beginning.
He said that it was with the help of his wife that he was able to overcome cancer in 2015, when doctors found a tumor in his kidney, which was removed through surgery. In 2020, however, new tumors were discovered in his liver and kidneys.
Despite receiving a frightening prognosis, Dolph Lundgren sought a second medical opinion that said he was cancer-free.
“Every day is a blessing, and you’re grateful to be here and for all the wonderful things my life has given me,” he said. “So yes, it definitely changes your outlook on life.”
