Linni Meister (37) found happiness with her best friend Morten Rognstad (45) around a year ago, after around six years as best friends.
Now they compete together with former cross-country runner Anette Bøe (65) at Fort Boyard in France.
Rognstad was first seen in “Linnis Univers”, where they show how the two became a couple.
– Morten has always been skeptical about taking part in this type of thing, and being in the limelight. But he took it head on, says Meister to Good evening Norway.
Meister was also a participant in “Fangene på fortet” in 2011. She was clear in her speech when she was asked to join this year’s season. She had one condition.
Thus, she nicely asked the production if her boyfriend could come along this time.
– Not everyone can experience this as a loving couple. There were many at home who were jealous of Morten who was allowed to join. It’s nostalgia, because we’ve grown up watching this.
Meister reveals to God kveld Norge that it was her boyfriend she wanted to impress most of all during the recording.
– We are good at working in “teams”, it is worse in private, she says jokingly.
Strengthened the marriage
A total of 48 celebrities will go into the fire in the TV competition, where Triana Iglesias is back in the role of presenter together with Kjetil André Aamodt and Julie Strømsvåg.
– I’m looking forward to seeing the collaboration between me and my wife. It was hell sometimes. But we are best friends, so the atmosphere is good, says Henrik Borg to Good evening Norway.
The TV profile participates with his Swedish wife, influencer Lisa Anckarman (33). The couple is on a team with TV profile Erlend Elias (40).
Borg believes that the participation has strengthened the marriage and thought it was a wonderful experience to be able to feel a little nervous.
– It was absolutely no “walk in the park”.
Regretted agreeing
Program leader Vida Lill Berge (33) is on a team with E-sport athlete Emil Nyhrox Bergquist (20) and Youtuber Dennis Vareide (32).
Berge says that she loves reality TV, and that it was a dream come true to finally be able to join “Fangene på fortet”.
– I’m not happy to go outside my comfort zone, and am actually quite fussy. I hate heights, the dark and tight spaces. I immediately regretted agreeing.
She thought it was absolutely fantastic to be on a team with “gaming guys”. and reveals to Good Evening Norway that she herself is a gamer.
– Not to brag, but I’m actually at level eight thousand on candycrush, so I’m a gamer myself.
Berge also says that she is due in two months.
– It will be two long damn months. Being pregnant is a hormonal journey. It has been both heavy, tiring and an extremely high amount of vomiting. I must have gained 20 kilos, and my body is not used to carrying that weight. I feel I look like a whale, concludes Berge.
