Pernilla Wahlgren faces viewer complaints over family mentions on Allsång på Skansen

Swedish TV host Pernilla Wahlgren, who presents the summer sing‑along show Allsång på Skansen, discussed her youngest son Theo's graduation and his plans to join the military as a cook. She described the moment as "incredibly emotional" and noted that she no longer has a school‑age child.

Following the broadcast, two viewers lodged complaints with SVT’s Granskningsnämnden, arguing that Wahlgren repeatedly used the program to promote the Wahlgren family brand. The complaints cite a sketch by Leif GW Persson that searched for her grandchildren and a Bamse segment that featured references to her family. Wahlgren responded that she did not write the sketches and was not responsible for the content. The review board will now decide whether the cases merit further action.
