Who is Frida Andersson?
A Swedish model, mum of five, and now a founder. You’ll also see her as Frida Andersson-Lourie, her first married name, or Frida Redknapp online.
From Stockholm to London
Her childhood is a blank page, and that looks deliberate — nothing about her parents has ever been reported. Legit mentions a sister, Linda Andersson, a baker with a following on Instagram, though the British press has never covered it. She left in her early twenties for modelling work in London and stayed.

The Modelling Career
She’s with Mrs Robinson Management, a London agency for models over 25. Metro points out she’s fronted campaigns for Escada. She’s also been linked with Next Management; earlier listings put her with MIKAs in Stockholm and West Options in Borås.
The rest needs a shrug. Biography pages add Calvin Klein Jeans, Georg Jensen, Elastoplast, Heineken and a Madame Figaro cover from 2001, but they copy each other and never name a source. One number holds up: her Instagram following was around 62,000 at the last count.
First Marriage to Jonathan Lourie
Before Jamie there was Jonathan Lourie, an American hedge fund manager. They had four children, three boys and a girl, who lived with her in West London before the two households merged.
The marriage and split dates were never published, and she’s never discussed them. The kids are minors, so their names stay out of this. Tellingly, when the pregnancy news broke, Lourie was among the first to congratulate her.
How She Met Jamie Redknapp
Mutual friends introduced them in 2019. It went public in August 2020, three years after Jamie separated from Louise Redknapp, the singer he’d married in 1998.
A source put it bluntly to Heat World: “Jamie feels ready to move on from his marriage to Louise and is happy to be doing it with someone who also has kids and is financially secure.” The same insider added, “She’s also a homebody and into fitness, like he is.”
Before the Wedding: Wembley and a Babymoon
She never announced the pregnancy. In May 2021, she just replied to congratulatory Instagram comments with prayer-hand emojis. Harry Redknapp was chattier on talkRADIO: “I’m really pleased. It’s good news, so looking forward to that and it’s exciting times.” Speaking to The Mirror, he did the maths, grandchild number eight, and added, “We’ve got our hands full!”
In June, both went to Wembley for Italy against Spain but sat apart — she in a box with one of her sons, captioning it “Spain vs Italy with my boy”, Jamie in the stands with Beau. A Greek babymoon followed, then Ireland for Jamie to film A League of Their Own.

Secret Wedding in Chelsea
As per The Sun, on 18 October 2021, they married at the Chelsea Register Office and told almost nobody. No engagement, no build-up.
About 30 people came: Harry and Sandra Redknapp, brother Mark, cousin Frank Lampard with wife Christine, and sons Charley and Beau. She wore a white off-the-shoulder midi dress with an obvious bump; he wore navy. Then everyone headed to Scott’s in Mayfair.
Within 24 hours her Instagram handle had gone from @frida_andersson to @frida_redknapp. Louise found out late — OK! reported she was “knocked sideways”, and only knew because Jamie wanted the boys to walk in with him.
Raphael: The Family Glue
Raphael Anders Redknapp arrived five weeks later, on 24 November 2021, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. Jamie posted the first photo: “We’re so in love, Mum is doing so well too.” Hers was more Scandinavian: “Our Viking has arrived.”
Rapha is four now, and she credits him with holding it all together. On The Midpoint with Gabby Logan, she summed up the years before him: “Going through a divorce is like putting a family through a tumble dryer.” Then the baby came. “Having Rapha has been a godsend – he’s the glue. Everyone wanted to come home and see Rapha.” He’s changed her too: “I’m a calmer mum now.”
Asked by Closer about blending two families, her answer was simple. “The biggest lesson is patience. When new people come into a family, everyone needs time to adjust.” Family dinners did the rest. That’s seven kids in all — her four, Jamie’s two, and Rapha.
Jamie’s Sobriety at 53
Jamie’s 53, and he stopped drinking because of Rapha. On The Romesh Ranganathan Show, he walked through the 50th birthday that finished him off: a father-and-son tournament at Greenwood, a few beers, a hired Mexican restaurant, and no food all day.
“My two boys, I remember walking home with them, and I thought that’s it, I’m gonna stop drinking.” His reason was simple: “I want to wake up every morning when I see Rapha I don’t want to feel like ‘oh I feel rubbish today’, I want to get up earlier than him and be as healthy as possible.” It’s been more than 18 months.
Frood: Her “Sixth Baby”
Frood is hers, and people miss it — four whole-food cooking blends built to get a proper meal on the table in about 20 minutes: Swedish Meatballs, Bella Bolognese, Golden Curry, and Mexi Fiesta. Add protein, water and oil, cook, and done. Each 75 g pack is £3, feeds four, and is not ultra-processed. It reached M&S and Ocado on 1 June 2026.
She told Women’s Health it’s her “sixth baby”, sparked by a mum at a kids’ party who begged her for help: “I have three kids, I’m very overwhelmed, I work full-time, and I don’t have time to cook.”
She bought dehydrators online, lined them up along the kitchen counter and got going. “Literally, I dried every single thing you can imagine for eight to nine months, 24/7: fruit, vegetables, pulses.” Jamie, she says, was “very curious”.
Net Worth and Public Profile
There’s no real figure. Estimates run from about $500,000 to $4 million, usually pinned to her modelling, but none can be traced back to a filing or anything she’s said. Same with the figures quoted for Lourie and Jamie.
NationalWorld and others still call her low-key next to her husband’s TV career, which is fair — she barely gives interviews. Frood might change that. It’s the first thing she’s done that has nothing to do with who she married.
