Victor Hedman: The NHL’s Swedish Sensation 

No doubt about it, Victor Hedman is a superstar defenseman in the NHL. The guy’s been rockin’ it on the Tampa Bay Lightning squad for ages, and it looks like he’s not slowing down anytime soon.  

Born in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, on December 18, 1990, Hedman’s been skating since he was knee-high to a grasshopper. By the time he was sixteen, he already knew he wanted to go pro and play with the big boys.

With his mad skills, he quickly caught the eye of NHL scouts and was scooped up as the second overall pick by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2009 draft.

With guys like Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov leading the charge, Hedman’s got his work cut out for him if he wants to keep up with this dynamic duo. On a team loaded with offensive firepower, it’s up to the defensemen like Hedman to keep things balanced and keep the wins rolling in.

She is Sweedish 

It seems like Sanna Grundberg is into that low-life type of living. Her exact birth date remains a secret, but reports suggest that she might be in her late 20s or early 30s as of April 2023. We can’t confirm her age yet.

Although she shares her husband’s Swedish roots, she’s originally from Örnsköldsvik and currently resides in Tampa, Florida, with hockey-playing hubby Victor Hedman. 

Despite being a potential treasure trove of juicy deets, Sanna prefers to keep her private life under lock and key. We have no intel on her family, education, or profession. 

And yes, since she is always by Victor’s side on all important events and, of course, his games, we do know she’s got one helluva supportive spirit when it comes to her husband’s career.

She is Victor’s “ride or die” 

Victor and Sanna have been going steady since 2009, and they haven’t looked back since. Sanna was a mere 18 years old and couldn’t work because of her immigration status, but that didn’t stop her from being by Victor’s side. 

When her boo thang Victor got drafted by the Lightning in 2009, he had to pack his bags and move to sunny Florida. Sanna wasn’t about to let him go alone, so she joined him on his journey to the land of oranges and alligators. And the rest is history! They’ve been living and loving together ever since, supporting each other through thick and thin.

She Has Been Married To Victor for 6 Years

In 2017, Victor Hedman did the thing and popped the question to his long-time girlfriend. It wasn’t an easy decision for him, but he took the leap, and thankfully, Sanna said yes! On July 23rd, 2017, these two lovebirds made it official and tied the knot in their hometown of Ornskoldsvik.

But don’t expect to know all the juicy details about their love story – these two are private people who like to keep their personal lives under wraps.

They Have a Son Named Rio 

The wedding bells rang, and the stork flew in – Victor and Sanna’s marriage was blessed with a baby boy named Rio. The happy couple couldn’t contain their joy and were over the moon to welcome their little angel into the world on October 14th, 2020.

The happy couple was over the moon with joy and couldn’t wait to start this new chapter of their lives together as parents.

While Sanna loves to share adorable photos of Rio on her Instagram, she’s also made her account private to keep their family life more private. But we can only imagine how cute those baby pics are.

Being a pro hockey player can be tough, but Victor makes sure to take some quality time with his son by bringing him to the arena to watch his games.
