She is financially independent after the multi-million dollar deal with makeup brand Caia.
But Bianca Ingrosso still can’t help but describe herself as “stupid and a little stupid.”
– That’s probably what we’ve heard from Swedes since we were little, he says.
Family squabbles took turns during the first seasons of the reality series “Wahlgren’s World,” where the mother Pernilla wahlgren, 52, fought over how the daughter Bianca ingrossoA 25-year-old, he slept until the afternoon at the parental home and did not take care of anything.
But now Bianca is financially independent after a venture capital firm bought half of the makeup company Caia, of which Bianca is a co-founder. According to DI Digital, the company was valued at a total of SEK 400 million in the deal and that would mean that Bianca received approximately SEK 60 million in the deal, in which she is still a partner.
No need to work anymore
– So now those numbers are not entirely correct, but it is a great financial security for me, of course, she says when Aftonbladet interviews her and her mother Pernilla through the video link about the new season of “The World of Wahlgren “on Dplay and Kanal 5. She admits that the sum received means to stop working and live on that money for the rest of her life.
– I am very grateful that my life has turned out like this, I did not think about it when I lay down on the sofa in your house, but I am very happy for our association in Caia and that it can be even better.
Could you stop working now and live off this money for the rest of your life?
– Yes, but it could, says Bianca Ingrosso.

“It became something of the girl”
For mother Pernilla Wahlgren, one of Sweden’s most beloved artists, who made her way to the Melodifestivalen in 1985 and has since participated in many films, musicals and shows, it is a relief how her daughter’s life has developed.
– What makes me proud is what we were discussing, as Bianca said when she was lying on the couch and doing nothing, she would get up at three in the morning and tell her: “Do something with your life.” She really did. Your Bianca will never calm down and stop working. Her driving force is that she constantly creates new opportunities and jobs, both as a businesswoman and in the entertainment industry. I’m proud of that as a mother, she says.
Pernilla can’t help but add with a smile:
– It was something from the girl.
I think there has also been a change in your social networks, that you feel more like a businesswoman. Would you say it’s true?
– Probably would. I’m the first to call myself a little stupid and a little stupid. I don’t like to talk about myself as a businesswoman in meetings and so forth, but lately I still have to say that I know this, I know what I do, says Bianca.
– I’ve also told you, Bianca, that you shouldn’t look down on yourself. A lot of people think that you just put your name on the products, but in Caia’s case you are incredibly involved in the development of the products, you attend the board meetings and you are incredibly engaged, says Pernilla.

“I listened since we were little”
But what you said now, Pernilla, was exactly what Bianca was doing, disparaging herself. You call yourself stupid and stupid, why are you doing that Bianca?
– I don’t want to blame others, but that’s probably what we’ve heard from the Swedish people since we were little. I think both myself and Benjamin, who grew up like this, people had an opinion about us even before we knew what we wanted to work with or even knew who we were. I think people put us in certain corners and then you don’t want to work too hard. People already have such clear opinions that they are often quite negative, says Bianca.
Do you feel that people are not treating you successfully?
– Yes, people invite me. So some people … you have noticed that they really think this is fun for me and that they get upset and jealous. I think people treat me, but on the other hand, maybe people think “what is she going to do? She didn’t deserve it ”and she doesn’t really understand me as a businesswoman. I don’t think it’s necessary to compare someone who works in a clothing store with someone who works with Instagram or someone who runs a business. Everyone works in their own way, I work very hard and no one can take it away from me.
People become different
In your vlog, you recently told us that you felt lonely and that you had a hard time with your friends, do you somehow connect that you are successful with making it difficult to find people to trust?
– I’m very naive, so I think I can trust everything and everyone and I can sit back and chat about all my secrets. So it’s not exactly that to trust, but I find that people relax more when I’m not around. I must say that I have noticed it recently.
Do they make themselves when you join?
– I think people want to try to be a certain way when I join, because they see me as a famous person or because they want to impress, or because they don’t want to try too much: “Bianca we can’t call to not work to continue.” Then it happens that we don’t You get so many invitations and you are so welcome … sure, I’m welcome, I know.
– So it also happens when you work a lot, work is a priority for me, because I think it’s a lot of fun. Then comes loneliness, sadly.
The new season of “Wahlgren’s World” premieres on Kanal 5 on Thursday, September 3 at 9:00 p.m., on the streaming service Dplay the series has already premiered.
