Norwegian influencer Øyunn Krogh announced she is leaving the reality series “Bloggerne”, telling Dagbladet that the current season will be her last. Krogh cited exhaustion from constant public analysis and the strain of reality television as the primary reasons for her departure, while also reflecting on her recent home renovation and shifting future plans.

Øyunn Krogh Announces Departure From “Bloggerne”

Øyunn Krogh, 30, has confirmed that the ongoing autumn season of the TV 2 reality series “Bloggerne” will be her final appearance on the show. Speaking to Dagbladet at the program’s press event, Krogh described the decision as closing a chapter after enduring years of emotional highs, lows, and public scrutiny.

“It is a closed chapter for me now,” Krogh told Dagbladet. “It has been nice to participate, but now I am ready to turn my snout toward something new and different.”

Reflecting on the grueling filming schedule, Krogh admitted that she felt exhausted and drained during production. She added that she no longer watches the broadcasted episodes, noting that she turned off the premiere after just three seconds upon seeing herself on screen. The television profile explained that she is tired of being constantly analyzed and commented on based on her behavior on the screen.

The Strain of Home Renovation and Relationship Tests

A major focus of Krogh’s storyline in the final season centers on a stressful, year-long home renovation undertaken alongside her partner, Ådne. The total overhaul of her living space pushed both her patience and her relationship to the limit.

“I am so glad it’s over. I was already underway with the renovation before I met Ådne. I was eight months without a kitchen! It was a total crisis!” Krogh told Dagbladet, shaking her head.

Describing the project as a baptism of fire for couples, Krogh warned against the hidden stresses of home remodeling. Total home renovation is an experience she recommends to no one, pointing out that while it generates arguments, it also serves as an effective test of whether a relationship is built to last.

Embracing a Calmer Routine and Redefining Future Goals

With her apartment finally finished and a more normal daily routine established, Krogh expressed contentment with her current life phase, despite describing her current emotional state as somewhat “flat.” After seven years defined by chaos and fluctuating moods, she finds comfort in a quieter lifestyle.

“I have it very well now. But there is nothing particularly special or big happening,” Krogh told Dagbladet. “As a TV profile and influencer, I feel that one must come up with something new or exciting… And I don’t have that now.”

This shift in perspective extends to her long-term personal goals, including her thoughts on starting a family. While earlier seasons of “Bloggerne” captured her expressing an enthusiastic desire for children with her partner, Krogh clarified to Dagbladet that her timeline has slowed down significantly.

“I am very fond of children and I look forward very much to having children. But I also think it is a very big decision. And right now I feel that I will wait a little bit,” she stated.

Krogh emphasized that while her dreams of starting a family remain intact, her media portrayal did not entirely reflect her current pace. She intends to take things slowly and appreciate the steady rhythm of her everyday life.
