The Family Fredriksson
Frida's father found out he had a daughter when
a cousin read his name in an ABBA fan magazine.
It listed him as the long lost, presumed dead,
father of Frida Lyngstad. Contact was made and a
meeting was set up.
Frida meets her father for the first time in 1977.
They call each other and write for awhile.
In 1978 she and Benny go to Germany to visit him.
Then it is said that she found out her father did indeed
know that Synni was pregnant when he left Norway.
For a time the contact with her father was broken,
but he says in 2001 that they speak regularly and
any report to the contrary is untrue.
He says he is extremely proud of Frida.
Frida says she was very nervous and tense before meeting her father that day.
"It's very hard to suddenly discover that you have a fatherwhen you're
32 years old... He told me alot about my mother.
The first time he met my mother she was carrying a bucket of milk.
They saw each other every day until it was time for him to leave."
She also found out she had a 34 year old half sister, Karin, and a 30 year old half brother
named Peter. He looks just like his dad.
"My father and I are so alike, we have the same features, the same crooked
index finger and the same feet."
Frida's father is a retired pastry chef. Frida's half brother Peter Haase
