In The Beginning

Bjorlin was born on August 2 in Newport, Rhode Island. Though she was born in the U.S., her parents are Swedish and moved the family back to Sweden when Bjorlin was quite young.

Sing Out Loud
Though she started acting and performing at a young age, Bjorlin is also a very talented singer and musician.

Though she’s focused on acting now, she still sings and plays the guitar, flute, and piano.

A Way With Words
Bjorlin is pretty skilled with languages. She is fluent in Swedish as well as Farsi, but because of her musical background in opera, she’s also schooled in several more languages like Italian and French.

Music Video Appearance

Along with acting in television shows and movies, Bjorlin is also a music video star. In fact, she appeared as a go-go dancer in Ricky Martin’s (ex-Miguel, General Hospital) music video for his song Shake Your Bon-Bon in 1999!

Getting Personal
Bjorlin dated actor Bruce Willis for about a year in the early 2000s, but she became engaged to Grant Turnbull in August 2014.
