This is how Anne and Anders found each other: People are still looking to see if they are lovers | BT Kendte - www.bt.dk ‘Are Anne Hjernøe and Anders Agger lovers?’, Google suggests as one of the first things when searching for one of the two popular DR hosts. For 12 years, the two TV hosts have traveled the Earth together, and the sparkling chemistry between Anne and Anders, as they are often just called, is undoubtedly one of the reasons why TV viewers are glued to the screen every time a new season scrolls across the screen on DR. But let's just start this article by shooting down the rumor for all the curious. No, Anne Hjernøe and Anders Agger are not lovers. “When a man and a woman get along well, people immediately think that we must be a couple, even though I've been with the same man for 28 years. But we're just laughing at it. As my daughter said: People are so damn unimaginative, "says Anne Hjernøe laughing. She has just returned home after another trip with the TV team behind the viewer success. Next season of 'Anne and Anders' premieres on June 7 and this time will be about different border areas in Europe, for example Catalonia in Spain. Viewer numbers have been rising for many years and still are. Especially after the program was moved from DR2 to the main channel DR1. It's like people just can not get by Anne and Anders. “I think the success is due to the tone that is in the programs. It shines through that Anders and I have good chemistry and like each other. And the slowness can matter. We do not cut people into small pieces, but actually take the time to try to understand the people we meet around, "says Anne Hjernøe. It all really started with nice talks at the coffee machine in the hallways of Danmarks Radio's concrete colossus on Olof Palmes Allé in Aarhus. Anders Agger made documentaries, she made the lifestyle programs 'Frilandshaven' and 'AnneMad'. The chemistry was there, so when Anne Hjernøe back in 2010 was missing a co-host of four broadcasts about Danish beach hotels on DR2, she suggested him. »It was just the intention that we should only make one program about beach hotels. It has then become 12 years around the world with Anne and Anders. It's actually quite wild to think about, "says Anne Hjernøe. But boyfriends, they are not. Anne Hjernøe, on the other hand, forms a couple with Jens Folmer Jepsen, who is a writer, radio host, film director and former director of Aarhus Festuge. He has two children from a previous marriage, and together they have a daughter, Camille, who is 20 years old. The couple have been together "since the dawn of time". Or at least for 28 years. Anne Hjernøe was only 24 years old when she met him in the TV industry, while he was 12 years older and had two children. “Our relationship has been controlled chaos right from the start. But if you are in love enough and stay open, most things can be solved. And then I think relationships are, by and large, a decision to stay together and fight for it despite the ups and downs that come over the course of 28 years, ”she says. There has never been much 8-16 over their work life and everyday life, but they have always made ends meet. “Our lives are a kind of organic mass in the world. I have never had to ask my husband for permission to go to Spain, for example. We do not work with that, because you have to give each other space to go after your dreams, "says Anne Hjernøe. Anne Hjernøe lives in Åbyhøj and loves that she can walk into town in 20 minutes and e.g. have a cup of coffee here at the Plantecafé, where her daughter works. And this is probably how it should be when you are in a relationship with the popular DR host. For dreams and plans it is not lacking. In addition to her work at DR, Anne Hjernøe writes one book a year and teaches folk high school courses on food and health on both Læsø and Mallorca. And then she gives a long series of lectures around the country. “Work takes up a lot of my everyday life, but it's also because I thrive so well on what I do. I'm a restless type, so I feel best when I'm doing something interesting, "she says. It also took 20 more books before Anne Hjernøe had a breakthrough with the book ‘Strong, light and full’, which was printed in the third edition already on the day of publication. She wrote the book when, after a vacation to Latin America with her husband and daughter, she discovered that she had lost three to four kilos without even thinking about it. The three-four kilos became 20 kilos, which then became a book. ‘When I think‘ damn, where did I just shoot the parrot ’about the life I live, my girlfriends remind me that I have not come easily to it. And that is also true, 'she says. Anne Hjernøe trains three times a week and feels best when she gets fresh air and exercise. Started training an apr years ago and it has made menopause easier to get through. Her next book is coming out in September. ‘Strong transition’ about menopause, which Anne Hjernøe thinks is talked about too little. “I find that people think it is taboo, and I myself have also lacked the ability to talk about it any more. People may know three symptoms and do not know that there are 200 and that there is a lot you can actually do yourself, "she says and hopes that her book can help demystify menopause.
