Helena Seger is an uber-successful Swedish businesswoman. The gorgeous model became famous thanks to her relationship with footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic, as his partner.
The phenomenal woman has years of experience in marketing, communications, and finance. Her ambition, hard work, and brilliance have carried her from job to job, and into the self-made woman that she is today. Currently 55, she has been with the Zlatan for close to two decades and they have two children together.
Helena Seger Is The Oldest of Three Siblings
Helena was born on August 25, 1970, in Lindesberg, Sweden, to Margareta and Ingemar Seger. She is the oldest of three children born to the couple. Her younger brother is named Henrik Seger, while her sister is called Karin Seger.
She was raised in a modest family and so she joined the workforce when she was only 13 years old in order to bring in some extra income for the family. Her first job was at a Swedish company called Gul & Bla. Over the years, she worked with other multinationals like Diesel, JC, Replay, and Rabbit.
There is no information about where Helena went to high school or university, but she has a degree in Economics. Helena also gained experience working as a sales representative for an organization called Bonner.
She spent three years in that role, promoting the company’s products and converting interest in the products to sales. Moving on, she landed a job as a sales and marketing representative for the company Corona and Hooch. She spent two years with the company. For a time, Helena Seger worked as a bartender to make some extra cash.
How She Started Her Career As A Model Thanks To Her Looks
Helena figured out early enough that her good looks were worth a lot, so she began taking modeling gigs. She walked down runways for many big fashion brands during her career. She took some free time to pick up skills like pattern design and fashion embroidery which she felt would serve a purpose sometime in the future.
In 1998, Helena worked at a tobacco company named Swedish Match, and after the business was sold she found a new job at Austria Tabak. She decided to expand her skills and field of knowledge by taking classes in brand management, marketing, and communication. Her next job was as a marketing manager for the company FlyMe, and later Malaco Leaf.
How Helena and Zlatan Ibrahimovic Met And Started Dating
Helena and Zlatan met in 2002, while she was still working at FlyMe. According to the businesswoman, the first time she met her lover was after he used his Ferrari to block off her Mercedes in a Malmo car park. When she confronted him and told him to move the car, he saw something he liked and before long after that, they started dating.
Despite the demands of both their jobs, the couple has managed to stay together throughout the years. Helena relocated to Italy in 2005 to be with her lover, and the relationship continued to flourish.
Their bond became even stronger when Helena gave birth to their son Maximilian Ibrahimović on September 22, 2006. They welcomed their second boy on March 6, 2008, and named him Vincent Ibrahimović.
Their Two Sons May Just Be Footballers Like Their Father
In 2017, Maximilian who is now 19 years old was reportedly training with the Manchester United Academy in his age group. Before then, he trained with the PSG academy when his father was there.
Vincent Ibrahimović, on the other hand, is now 17 and shows signs of following in the footsteps of his father and probably older brother. He was once pictured training with the PSG Academy together with his brother.
Is Helena Seger Older Than Zlatan? Why They Are Not Married
Age, as they say, is nothing but numbers. This is even more true in the case of Zlatan and his partner. Helena is older than Zlatan by 11 years but that doesn’t seem to be an issue for them. While as stated, Seger was born in 1970, Zlatan was born in 1981, making him now 55 years old. When they met, she was a woman of 32 while he was a young man of 21.
Although many platforms have described Heger as the wife of Zlatan, the truth is they have not been married even though they have spent many years together and have even started a family. It is important to note that their age has nothing to do with why they are still not married.
The businesswoman indicated that the reason why they are not married is that she doesn’t want the label of being a wife and that marriage could disrupt her life. More so, she didn’t hide the fact that while he was not an easy man to live with, she was also not that easy to live with.
There Was A Cheating Case Against Zlatan And Rumored Breakup
During the Covid 19 pandemic, Zlatan and Italian TV presenter Diletta Leotta appeared in an advert for Buddyfit together. After that, the rumor emerged that the two were probably dating after they were sighted in a restaurant in Sardinia. Newspapers carried their pictures together, describing them as the newest couple.
The rumor at the time was that the footballer was cheating on his partner whom many described as his wife. Before then, Leotta was dating Daniele Scardina before they ended the relationship.
In his usual manner, the footballer did not say anything about the speculated dating nor the possible breakup with his lover, but Diletta came out to deny that she was having an affair with the footballer. Also, he is very happy with his partner.
Her Net Worth- Is She Also Richer?
Helena Seger is a businesswoman who has no doubt amassed serious wealth from her many endeavors over the years. Her net worth is estimated at $4 million which she made from her many endeavors.
Even though she is well to do, Helena is still not as rich as Zlatan who is estimated to have a net worth of $190 million.
