AceShowbiz - Björn Ulvaeus, the celebrated member of the iconic pop group ABBA, has walked down the aisle for the third time in his life at the age of 79. The Swedish singer exchanged vows with his Danish partner of two years, 51-year-old Christina Sas, in an intimate ceremony held in Copenhagen on September 21.
The event was officiated by "The Great British Bake Off" star Sandi Toksvig, who wore red clergy robes for the occasion. Toksvig and Björn have been friends since their collaboration on "Mamma Mia: The Party!" in 2018.
On his Instagram, Björn shared the joyous news along with a series of beautiful photos capturing the special day. "Today on the 21st of September 2024, Björn Ulvaeus married Christina Sas from Herning, Denmark," read the caption.
Christina, who looked stunning in a khaki green gown, and Björn have been together since spring 2022 after meeting in Nürnberg in 2021 during the promotion of ABBA's last album, "Voyage."
The wedding was attended by close friends and family, making the event even more meaningful. "The wedding took place in Copenhagen in the presence of close friends and family," Björn noted on his social media.
Before Christina, Björn was married to music journalist Lena Kallersjo for 41 years. The couple announced their amicable split in February 2022, deciding to share their £100 million fortune equally. They have two daughters, Emma, 42, and Anna, 38. Björn's first marriage was to his ABBA bandmate Agnetha Faltskog from 1971 to 1979, with whom he had two children, Linda, 49, and Peter, 44.
Björn and Christina made their first public appearance together in June 2022, where Björn revealed, "We have dated for a while and I felt like I wanted to take her to this event. So this is the first time we go out together." Their relationship blossomed despite the 28-year age gap, demonstrating that love can flourish at any stage in life.
Björn's new chapter of love was celebrated with generous performances by Anne Linnet and Kaya Brüel, adding an extra layer of joy to the evening.
