Brigitte Nielsen found love with her much younger husband, Mattia Dessi.
Together they welcomed the actress’ 5th child, Frida, when she was 55.
She dismissed the idea of being too old to parent, noting that her age has enriched her parenting with patience and love.
Brigitte Nielsen is married to Mattia Dessi, whom she met in Switzerland in 2004. The couple first crossed paths when Brigette was 41 and Mattia was 25. In the beginning, their relationship played out on VH1’s reality show “Strange Love.”
The pair’s relationship flourished, and they tied the knot in a glamorous ceremony in Malta in 2006. Nielsen revealed that she experienced plenty of backlash when she married a younger man, but this didn’t stop her from following her heart.
