There’s a big height difference between The Mountain from Game of Thrones and his wife. Fans have been curious about this unique pairing.
Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, known as Thor to many, is famous for playing Gregor Clegane, aka The Mountain. He’s appeared in movies like The Northman, Operation Ragnarok, and Pharaoh’s War. Thor, hailing from Iceland, stands at an impressive 6ft 9inches tall.
Given his size, it might seem like he’d choose someone closer to his height, but instead, he married Kelsey Henson, who is just 5ft 2inches.
This major height difference has sparked questions from fans, especially about how they manage simple things like kissing. During an Instagram Q&A, someone asked Kelsey how they handle it: “How do you kiss? Do you jump into his arms and wrap your legs around him?”
Her reply was simple: “Ah, he bends, I tiptoe. Or just say screw it, pick me up!” It’s as easy as that.
The couple tied the knot in October 2018, and Thor shared a photo from their wedding day, where he’s holding Kelsey. He wrote: “It is with great pleasure that I now get to call Kelsey Morgan Henson my wife!” He added, “I’m excited for all the future adventures we will tackle side by side.”
Sadly, the couple faced a heartbreaking loss when their daughter, Grace, passed away in November 2023. Grace was stillborn at 21 1/2 weeks. Thor shared the sad news on Instagram, saying, “Words cannot describe our pain… but so will the love.”
Grace was their second child. They also have a three-year-old son named Stormur. Thor also has a daughter, Theresa Líf, with his ex-girlfriend. Despite their loss, the couple is grateful for their family and the memories they’ve made together.
