Dinner date for two? The 65-year-old Swedish-born actor, who was recently spotted taking a leisurely stroll in Los Angeles, took his gorgeous fiancée out for a romantic dinner.
Emma, 25, looked effortlessly stylish in a plaid wrap shirt and black jeans.
The personal trainer got out in black hiking boots and tossed a black handbag on her shoulder to complete the look.
The Norwegian beauty’s shoulder-length blonde hair was brushed back from her face.
She flaunted her stunning features with lots of mascara and a touch of orange lipstick.
Dolph recently opened up about his health on In Depth with Graham Besinger, revealing that he was first diagnosed with lung cancer in 2015.
The actor said he went into remission, but then the cancer returned in 2020 and he was told by one doctor that he had two or three years to live.
He then went for a second opinion and due to the treatment he is now receiving, the tumors have shrunk.
He said: ‘In 2020 I was back in Sweden and I had some kind of acid reflux, I didn’t know what it was, so I did an MRI.

“They found there were a few more tumors around that area.”
He continued, “They found another tumor in the liver so I was like aw s**** okay.
“It was then that it dawned on me that this was something serious. The surgeon called me and said it had grown, it was too big, it had grown to the size of a small lemon.
“I asked them how long I have left, I think he said 2-3 years, but I heard from his voice that he thought it was less. I thought that was it for sure.’
He also revealed how using steroids had an impact on his body.
He continued: ‘I tried steroids in the 80s, 90s. I don’t know if that has anything to do with the cancer, of course I noticed because it might have something to do with it.
“I’ve thought about it, you always think you made a mistake. I think there may be a connection between testosterone therapy and cancer.
“I was on steroids when I was younger, maybe for ten years. Depends on the kind of film I’ve made.’

His fiancé Emma Krokdal told Bensinger, “His mouth hurt, his hands hurt, and he couldn’t eat anything.
“That was a struggle, he lost weight. We realized it was much worse than we thought, they started talking about tumors in the lungs, stomach, spine, outside the kidneys.’
After a change in treatment, Dolph said his tumors had shrunk between 20 and 30 percent within three months.
He continued, “You just appreciate being lucky enough to be alive, and you appreciate every moment there is.”
