Gustaf Skarsgård's Wife: The 'Vikings' Actor Welcomed a Daughter with Partner Caroline Sjöström

Gustaf Skarsgård prefers to keep his personal life private, but he and his partner, Caroline Sjöström, welcomed a beautiful daughter into their lives. Despite liking his privacy, some of his romantic relationships have been in the spotlight.

Gustaf Skarsgård is an actor, writer, and director from a family of actors. He was born on November 12, 1980, in Stockholm, Stockholms Ian, Sweden, and is a father and a lover.

Despite the success in his private life, the talented star has reportedly never been married before. However, he was once in a long-term relationship with a Swedish actress.

The actor is best known for his appearance in the drama series, "Vikings," where he plays Floki, the town boat builder, alongside Travis Fimmel (Ragnar), Katheryn Winnick (Lagertha), and Clive Standen (Rollo).

Skarsgård also starred in the HBO sci-fi television series, "Westworld," where he plays Karl Strand alongside Thandie Newton, Tessa Thompson, James Marsden, Ed Harris, and Jeffrey Wright.

She and Skarsgård once co-starred as love interests Anja and Jonas in the television series "Cleo" back in 2002. Meanwhile, they were also a couple in real life. Alström and the Hollywood star were once in a long-term relationship that began in 1999 and ended in 2005.

Gustaf Skarsgård's Current Partner Is Caroline Sjöström

Skarsgård and Sjöström have been together for a long time and are sometimes seen together at events. They attended the premiere of "It" in September 2017. They posed together at the red-carpet event with Skarsgård's arm wrapped around his beaming significant other.

They made yet another red-carpet appearance when they attended the "Westworld" television show premiere in April 2018 in Los Angeles. They donned coordinating black outfits while Skarsgård sported a matching hat.

The lovebirds also attended the Swedish premiere of "The Northman" in March 2022 in Stockholm. Sjöström opted for a baby blue suit, and her love wore a gray suit for the event.

Gustaf Skarsgård Has a Child with His Partner

Skarsgård and Sjöström welcomed their daughter named November in November 2020. In a November 2021 interview, the first-time dad gushed about his child's arrival:

"It has been important to me not to have children for the wrong reason, which made my daughter really feel like a gift when she arrived. Suddenly you have a new factor in your life that will affect all future decision-making."

When asked how her year in 2021 had been during a January 2022 red carpet interview, Sjöström said: "It has been great. I have given birth and been pregnant, so it has been a perfect period to bake it in."

Sjöström's boyfriend has gushed about their daughter on social media. In November 2021, Skarsgård posted a photo featuring him and his child November at the beach on his first Father's Day.

He posed facing away from the camera while holding her. The infant's face could also not be seen as she was wearing a hat. Her dad prefers keeping his life private, evident on his Instagram page, where he mainly posts about his work.

Despite that, Skarsgård was able to talk about his then-newborn daughter, whom he said he would "die and kill for," and his girlfriend Sjöström in a November 2021 interview.

When asked whether he got up early for the interview, he said it was no issue, adding he had a child back home who wakes up at eight. The doting dad was on paternity leave then, and November was 11 months old at the time.

Skarsgård also talked about his relationship with Sjöström. He said it was "incredibly romantic to live with someone, not because you are afraid of not being able to do without the other, but because you want to."
