Noora Fagerström says in the Three turning points podcast that she forbade Petteri Fagerström to respond to the avalanche of criticism.
Entrepreneur and MP Noora Fagerström has been together with her husband Petter for almost 15 years. Noora remembers Three turning points podcast that the couple’s relationship eventually progressed quickly. The first meeting took place at the door of the nightclub where Petteri worked as a porter.
– He doesn’t remember me. He remembers my friends who had to be taken out of there, Noora laughs.
However, the first date did not materialize until much later. A mutual friend of the couple had been talking to Noora about Petter for a long time, and set the two up on a blind date. Noora was attracted by the man’s fun, intelligence and ambition.
Soon the couple moved in together and the rest is history. Noora describes Petter as an “infinitely tough guy” for her. He continues that “Petsku” also always supports his friends and family.
In August, Noora gave an interview to Iltalehti, and got a lot of feedback. Petteri sent threatening messages to at least two people who criticized Noora on Instagram.
– He is impulsive. He is very fair, he always thinks about what is fair. He thought that in this case it was not fair to treat me like that.
When Noora saw Petter’s social media posts in the morning, she was quite frustrated.
– No, what you have put! I told you, don’t answer anything!
– Those messages shouldn’t have been posted, and I don’t like the way he wrote them. But what I like is that he is always ready to stand up for his own friends and family.
The secret to a long relationship
The host of the podcast, Roope Salmi, is interested in what is the secret of a couple that has been together for almost 15 years – how can a relationship last?
– We talk a lot. Petteri is a rare man, at least according to my own experiences, in that he wants to talk a lot.
– It often opens up the situation. Yes, we have fights, when we fight, then we fight. The children have sometimes pointed out that you could be quiet. We genuinely show emotions, if they remain locked up, no one has a good feeling, summarizes Noora.
In a recent podcast episode, Noora Fagerström also talks openly about her father’s death and the beginnings of her company. Elle Laitila
