Told about childhood • Lundell: “Never in life”
Published 2026-07-06 10.46
Annika Berg is suing her son Joakim Lundell.
She believes, among other things, that the influencer has singled her out as “a mentally ill person who tormented him through mental and physical abuse”.
Now she is seeking damages of SEK 50,000 for infringement.
The lawsuit concerns a YouTube interview from 2021 there Joakim Lundell40, talks about his childhood. In the clip, which has over 100,000 views, his mother is portrayed Annika Berg65, as “a mentally ill and sadistic person”. This is according to the lawsuit against the influencer.
In the video, Joakim Lundell says, among other things, that the mother, whom he does not mention by name, allegedly asked him to stick himself with needles while he was growing up. On another occasion, she allegedly made him put his finger in a lamp without the bulb in place.
– I still remember that pain to this day. One of the few segments I remember in my head. How the current felt in the hand, he says.
Annika Berg’s lawyer believes that the claims are not true and that there was no reasonable basis for them, and that Joakim Lundell has not “taken sufficient measures to check the veracity of the information”. In addition, the information is said to have caused great damage to the mother’s privacy, as she is said to have received hate on social media, among other things.
Annika Berg is now applying for damages from her son of SEK 50,000, as well as compensation for court costs.
Joakim Lundell does not want to comment on the whole thing to Aftonbladet, but says in a post on his Instagram story that he received a demand letter a few weeks ago.
– Aha, it’s about money, forget it, he says and refers to what he was thinking then.
– I don’t pay 50,000 even if I could because I have told about what I experienced as a child. No way. It is completely absurd, he continues.
Lundell also says he wants to move on and not have to talk about his childhood anymore.
Aftonbladet has applied for Annika Berg.
