Abba's Björn Ulvaeus has married his partner Christina Sas in a ceremony hosted by the comedian and broadcaster Sandi Toksvig. The 79-year-old Swedish singer, who has been married twice before, met Sas in Nuremberg, Germany, in 2021 in connection with the release of Abba's last album Voyage.

The wedding took place in Copenhagen in the presence of close friends and family. Ulvaeus posted a number of photos from the day, one of which showed the host of BBC show QI, Toksvig, dressed in red robes standing next to Ulvaeus, who donned a suit, and his wife Sas, who wore a green wrap dress.

The Dancing Queen singer, 79, tied the knot with his Danish girlfriend Christina Sas, 51, in Copenhagen in a small ceremony in front of family and friends. Ulvaeus was pictured smiling in a sleek grey suit and T-shirt as he held on tightly to his bride, who wore a khaki-coloured dress.

Toksvig was dressed in a clerical-style, gold-embroidered red cloak as she spoke into a headset microphone in front of the bride and groom. The designer Søren Le Schmidt, who is known for dressing Danish royalty, provided clothing for the wedding.

The Danish-British presenter has been friends with Ulvaeus since they collaborated on the theatrical show Mamma Mia! The Party in 2018. Toksvig’s role in the wedding, along with those of the Danish singers Anne Linnet and Kaya Brüel, made the evening “extra special”, read a post on the Abba star’s social media.

The newlyweds met in Nuremberg, Germany in 2021, during the release of Abba’s final album Voyage, when Ms Sas was working for the band’s record label, Universal Music Group. They announced that they were a couple in June 2022 at the premiere of Ulvaeus’s musical Pippi at the Circus.

“We have dated for a while and I felt like I wanted to take her to this event. So this is the first time we go out together,” the singer said at the time.

Four months previously, Ulvaeus announced he had split from his second wife of 41 years, Lena Kallersjo. The couple share two daughters, Emma, 42, and Anna, 38, and agreed to split their £100 million in assets equally.

From 1971 to 1979, Ulvaeus was married to his bandmate and first wife Agnetha Faltskog. They had two children, Linda, 51, and Peter, 46.
