Lovely Photos of Ingrid Bergman and Her Children

Throughout her three marriages, Ingrid Bergman had a total of four children. In 1937, at the age of 21, Bergman married a dentist, Petter Aron Lindström, who later became a neurosurgeon. The couple had one child, a daughter, Friedel Pia Lindström (born September 20, 1938). After returning to the United States in 1940, she acted on Broadway before continuing to do films in Hollywood.

Bergman returned to Europe after the scandalous publicity surrounding her affair with Italian director Roberto Rossellini during the filming of Stromboli in 1950. In the same month the film was released, she gave birth to a boy, Renato Roberto Ranaldo Giusto Giuseppe (“Robin”) Rossellini (born February 2, 1950). A week after her son was born, she divorced Lindström and married Rossellini in Mexico.

On June 18, 1952, she gave birth to the twin daughters Isotta Ingrid Rossellini and Isabella Rossellini. In 1957, Rossellini had an affair with Sonali Das Gupta and soon after, Bergman and Rossellini separated. Rossellini later married Sonali Das Gupta in 1957.

In 1958, Bergman married Lars Schmidt, a theatrical entrepreneur from a wealthy Swedish shipping family. Curiously, while vacationing with Lars in Monte Gordo beach (Algarve region, Portugal) in 1963, right after recording the TV movie Hedda Gabler, Ingrid got ticketed for wearing a bikini that showed too much according to the modesty standards of conservative Portugal. After almost two decades of marriage, Ingrid and Lars divorced in 1975. He was, however, by her side when she died.

Here, below are 24 lovely vintage photographs capture the actress with her children from the 1950s to 1970s:
