“Tinder Swindler” victim Pernilla Sjoholm is now a mom to two twin babies.
She gave birth to a son and daughter on New Year’s Day.
Sjoholm went into labor on Dec. 31, welcoming her infants the following day.
“It was very difficult and I lost a lot of blood and had preeclampsia,” the new mom wrote via Instagram of her “long delivery.”
She added, “Our little hearts inside of me [are] now outside. I can’t imagine I have lived my life ever without [them].”
Sjoholm, 35, told her Instagram followers about her pregnancy in August 2022.
“We are so happy to share the news we are expecting twins in December,” the then-expectant star captioned a video kissing her partner, whose name she has yet to reveal.

Sjoholm gave another look at her budding belly later that same week, calling herself a “Swedish Meatball.”
She wrote, “Still can’t believe I have 2 babies growing inside me.”

Sjoholm is best known for being one of the “Tinder Swindler” victims, appearing on the Netflix docuseries to discuss how she was conned by a man she met on a dating app.
The man in question was Shimon Hayut, who posed as Simon Leviev, the son of a diamond merchant. He has since been convicted of theft, fraud and forgery.
Sjoholm now considers herself “the queen of handling setbacks,” she told her Instagram followers in August 2022.
“Sometimes bad things that have happen in our life put us directly on the path to the best things that will ever happen to us,” she wrote at the time. “I’m so looking forward to the next chapter.”
