Nikolaj Coster-Waldau’s Wife Nukâka Has Been by His Side for More than Two Decades

Nukâka Coster-Waldau, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's wife, loves being a mother to their two adorable daughters. The couple's marriage thrives because of one important factor in their happiness.

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's portrayal of his character in "Game of Thrones" has earned him widespread acclaim, with many viewers perceiving him as arrogant, cruel, and indifferent to those around him.

Despite his on-screen persona, Nikolaj is different from his iconic character. He expresses his love to his family as a devoted husband to his wife and a dedicated father to their children.

Nikolaj is a Danish actor, producer, and writer. He got his big break in the Danish movie "Nightwatch." He earned more starring roles in films such as "Headhunters" and "A Thousand Times Good Night."

However, his portrayal of Jaime Lannister in the hit HBO series "Game of Thrones" cemented his status in the industry. He received a coveted Primetime Emmy Award nomination in 2018 for his supporting role in the series.

The HBO series had a star-studded cast, including Emilia Clarke, Gwendoline Christie, and Peter Dinklage. As a result of his global fame, Nikolaj's private life has also become the subject of fans' curiosity.

Nikolaj is no longer available, as his heart already belongs to Nukâka Coster-Waldau, a singer and actress born in Greenland on February 23, 1971.

Nukâka is a former beauty queen. In 1990, she won the Miss Greenland title, and in the same year, she participated in Miss Universe, ranking 19th in the preliminary round.

Afterward, she went on to become an actress. Nukâka's acting credits include "Det grå guld," "Forbrydelsen," and "Anori." In addition to acting, she is also a singer.

Nikolaj and Nukâka Coster-Waldau Are Still in Love with Each Other after More than Two Decades Together

While performing a radio play together, Nikolaj fell in love with Nukâka at first sight. In the play, he portrayed a pilot whose love interest was a Greenlandic woman, Nukâka's character.

Nikolaj loved Nukâka, but she did not reciprocate his feelings immediately, so he had to work hard to win her heart. Despite this initial challenge, they eventually married in 1998 and have remained together ever since.

Although most of Nikolaj's on-screen roles portray him as a womanizer, he has been a faithful partner to his wife. He and Nukâka have been married for over two decades.

Beyond mere physical intimacy, Nikolaj revealed in a 2014 interview with Cosmopolitan the essential ingredient for a long-lasting marriage. He said:

"You have to like each other — that's a good start. And of course, you have to stay physical together. But you also have to be able to laugh. If you can't have fun, then there's no point."

The sweet messages Nukâka dedicates to her husband on her Instagram indicate they are still very much in love. She shared three photos of them in honor of their wedding anniversary in June 2021.

In July 2021, she shared a heartfelt birthday tribute to her husband, including photos from when they were 26 years old. Nukâka's admiration for Nikolaj is unending, as she has only nice things to say about him.

In March 2022, she uploaded a close-up black-and-white picture of the pair. She noted that it had been 25 years since they had to sit next to each other because no other seats were available. Nukâka is happy about it, writing, "We have done alright my love, still side by side."

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and His Wife Have Two Beautiful Daughters

Nikolaj and Nukâka are proud parents of two beautiful daughters, Safina and Fillippa. The doting dad shares photos of his daughters on social media, expressing his pride in them.

In 2019, Nikolaj posted a heartfelt birthday tribute to Safina, showing his love and affection for his then-16-year-old daughter. He also shared a sweet tribute to Fillipa on her 19th birthday, posting a photo of her as a newborn.

Safina and Fillippa are following in their famous father's footsteps and pursuing acting careers. Safina is beginning to make a name for herself in the industry.

Safina'a acting credits include "Det Forsvundne Ravkammer," "Lad Dem Prøve," and "Dagdrømme og mareridt," according to her IMDb profile. Meanwhile, Fillippa has appeared in "The Girl and the Dogs" and "Aftenshowet."

Interestingly, Nikolaj stated he didn't want his children to watch "Game of Thrones." He found it strange for his kids to see him pretend to be someone else and engage in intimate scenes with another woman on-screen.

Nonetheless, Nikolaj and Nukâka's family is a testament to the power of love, support, and passion for the arts. With their parents' genes running in their blood, there's no telling what heights Safina and Fillippa will reach in the entertainment industry.
