Fans of Game of Thrones may know him as the unstoppable Gregor Clegane, but off-screen, Haf\u00fe\u00f3r J\u00fal\u00edus Bj\u00f6rnsson\u2014known worldwide as Thor or The Mountain\u2014is navigating life as a husband in the spotlight. His wife, Kelsey Henson, recently answered a question from fans that has long sparked curiosity.<\/p>\n
Bj\u00f6rnsson, 35, is a record-breaking Icelandic strongman who made history by winning the Arnold Strongman Classic, Europe\u2019s Strongest Man, and the World\u2019s Strongest Man all in a single year\u2014a feat no one else has ever achieved. Standing an eye-popping 6-foot-9, Thor\u2019s presence is impossible to miss, whether he\u2019s dominating in strength competitions or taking on acting roles in films like The Northman, Operation Ragnarok, and Pharaoh\u2019s War.<\/p>\n
But off the stage and screen, it\u2019s his family life that has intrigued fans, especially given the striking difference in height between him and his wife. Kelsey, 34, measures just 5-foot-2, making their 19-inch gap impossible to overlook. The couple tied the knot in October 2018, with Bj\u00f6rnsson celebrating their union on Instagram:<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is with great pleasure that I now get to call Kelsey Morgan Henson my wife! I get to hold this beautiful woman through thick and thin for the rest of our lives! I\u2019m so excited for all of the future adventures we will tackle side by side.\u201d<\/p>\n
Height difference aside, fans have been curious about the more intimate aspects of their marriage\u2014particularly how they manage everyday gestures like kissing. During a live Instagram Q&A, one fan asked the bold question:<\/p>\n
\u201cHow do you kiss? Do you jump into his arms each time and wrap your legs around his waist?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kelsey responded with humor and candor\u201cAh, he bends, I tiptoe. Or just say screw it, pick me up!\u201d<\/p>\n
Her lighthearted answer was met with laughter and relief from followers, who were clearly wondering the same thing. It seems love between this duo is less complicated than some might imagine.<\/p>\n
Yet life hasn\u2019t been without heartbreak. In 2023, the couple shared the painful loss of a daughter, opening up on Instagram about the brief but precious time they had with her. They wrote:\u201cAfter noticing a decline in her movements, we learned that her heart had stopped. The pain of losing her is indescribable, yet we are so grateful for the precious moments we had with our daughter. She was absolutely beautiful\u2026 the love we feel for her is immense. Though our grief will stay with us forever, so too will our love. Her spirit continues to live on through us and her siblings.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite their tragedy, the couple continues to build their family. They share a three-year-old son, Stormur, while Bj\u00f6rnsson is also father to a daughter, Theresa L\u00edf, from a previous relationship. Through joy and sorrow, the Mountain and his wife demonstrate resilience, love, and a sense of humor that keeps fans fascinated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
