Victor Hedman is a Swedish professional ice hockey defenseman and alternate captain for the Tampa Bay Lightning of the National Hockey League. He was born on December 18, 1990. The Lightning picked Hedman with the second overall pick in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft.

On July 23, 2017, in their home country of Ornskoldsvik, defenseman Victor Hedman and his longtime girlfriend Sanna Grundberg got married. Also, there aren't many facts available right now about their romantic lives. However, they have been seen together attending different events. She attended the NHL Awards event back in 2017 along with him.

Sanna Grundberg, originally from Rnsköldsvik, Sweden, now lives in Tampa, Florida, with her husband. Sanna and Victor have been together for years -- at least since 2009. Sanna was 18 and unable to work due to her immigration status, but was already with Victor. She was originally referred to as a dependable ladyfriend, which naturally changed since.

Victor Hedman and Sanna Grundberg were blessed with a baby boy named Rio on October 14. He was spotted saying a quick "hi" to his son during a game back in January 2022.


Victor Hedman's early life and ice hockey career

Hedman first began his playing career as a goalkeeper when he was younger. Along with his buddies, including well-known iRacing driver Fredrik Sellgren, he also played street hockey.

Victor Hedman’s father promised to buy his son the new helmet he wanted if he left the net. Since then, he has not played a goal since.

Vicky remarked,

"Now I'm grateful for that. You can never be sure of an alternative outcome."

Hedman has two older brothers, Johan Hedman, who does not play professionally, and Oscar Hedman, who was a professional hockey player who played for Modo Hockey.

Hedman also loves football and flying, and he has eight hours under his belt on a Piper PA-32. According to his father, he would easily outrun everyone else on the field. Hedman continues to play soccer in the summer and is a devoted fan. He cheers for Manchester United in the Premier League.

Hedman established a hockey academy in his hometown in 2014. The school's openings were filled in under two hours. Hedman claimed that it was all worthwhile to "see the thrill in the kids' eyes".

Victor Hedman gave an explanation for why he chose the number 77 in a 2016 interview with The Hockey News. He frequently watched Colorado Avalanche games while growing up in Sweden because one of the team's top players at the time, Peter Forsberg, was Swedish.
