Tobias Forge and his wife, Boel Forge, share a beautiful love story. The two, who lived in Stockholm, Sweden's capital city, in 2019, share twins who are now teenagers. Boel Forge has been there for her husband through thick and thin.

Her husband, who is now a successful musician, revealed that when he had nothing and lived in a cheap and tiny apartment with a leaking roof, his dream was to work hard and be able to live off making music.

Inside Boel Forge's and Tobias Forge's Marriage

Boel and Tobias were still dating when she got pregnant. The two welcomed their twins, Minou and Morris Forge, in 2009 before they tied the knot. The musician was in his late twenties and working at a call center in a Swedish mobile phone company.

Although Tobias revealed they are not religious, he said they find the Christmas season meaningful.

During this time, Boel's husband was a member of the Ghost, his sixth band after participating in other bands. Even though he had taken a big step in his life — starting a family and getting married — he felt like he was not progressing professionally.

Boel Forge's Husband Shared His Creative Songwriting Process

During an interview, Boel's husband shared insights into his songwriting process. He mentioned getting an idea for a song within one or two days, especially when collaborating with others. When he realizes he's not satisfied with a particular section of the song, he describes his approach as treating the song like a partner.

Using a wife-swap scenario, he compared himself to a husband, where the song becomes his partner. If he sees someone not treating the song properly, he steps in to improve it himself. He explained that this process ignites his creativity and allows him to make necessary changes on the spot, preventing the idea from fading.
