Stockholm awoke today to heartbreaking news that has sent waves of shock through ABBA’s devoted global fanbase. Just 30 minutes ago, Benny Andersson—legendary songwriter and founding member of the Swedish supergroup—stepped forward with an emotional and deeply personal update regarding his longtime bandmate, Agnetha Fältskog.

Known to millions as the golden voice of ABBA, Agnetha has always held a special place in the hearts of fans around the world. But earlier this morning, she was rushed to a Stockholm hospital following a sudden and alarming health episode that left friends, family, and fans deeply concerned.

Benny, visibly shaken, fought back tears as he addressed the press. “This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to share,” he said, his voice breaking. “Agnetha means so much, not only to me, but to everyone who has ever been touched by her music. Right now, we are focusing on her health and praying for her recovery.”

The news comes as an unexpected blow to fans who have cherished recent years of renewed ABBA magic, with Agnetha making rare but cherished appearances alongside her bandmates. For decades, her voice has been a beacon of emotion and strength, from the soaring highs of “The Winner Takes It All” to the tender warmth of “Fernando.”
