In 2015, the artist divorced Lotta Engberg61, from her husband Patrick Ehlerssonwhom she married in 1999. Lotta enjoyed being single and was – if the truth were to be revealed – quite tired of men, she said in an interview. But. There was actually a man out there that Lotta was a little interested in. Doctor Mikael.
That’s how Lotta Engberg and Doctor Mikael met
In the interview, it just slipped out of her mouth – about Doctor Mikael, or Mikael Sandström as his name is, would call, then she wouldn’t say no.
– On the Internet it appeared quite quickly, his answer. And then I thought “No, but God, maybe he has a girlfriend who gets really annoyed!”. So I felt that I had to handle this professionally, so I called the number four and asked if I could have his number, and then I sent a text message in which I apologized profusely, Lotta Engberg told In Together with Strömstedts.
After a couple of trips back and forth, Lotta and Mikael finally started writing with each other, and the rest is history, so to speak.

Since 2020, Lotta Engberg and Mikael Sandström have been a couple, and in 2021 they bought a villa together in Mölnlycke outside Gothenburg. There, the couple has a spa area with a pool and their own cinema.
If they want to feel the air in the country, they also have their house on the West Coast where they can gather strength. Recently, the couple actually had the salt-sprinkled house in Bohuslän renovated in the Kanal 5 program Stugdrömmar. It became extremely emotional for Lotta, who broke down in tears of joy!

– No, but are you kidding me?, he exclaims and pulls out a box of After Eight.
– This is my grandmother and grandfather to me, he continues and opens the box with the iconic mint chocolate.

– Have you eaten yet, Doctor Mikael wonders and takes a look in the box, and then at his roommate Lotta…
– But it’s not me, Lotta replies.
If we put it this way – Mikael looks pretty guilty about the “chocolate theft”.
– But what are people to believe, replies Doctor Mikael, laughing.
