Singer and presenter Roope Salminen performed on Thursday at the Allas sea pool stage in Helsinki Roope Salminen & Dogs – with his band.

A special guest was also watching the show: Salminen’s father, actor and presenter Eppu Salminen.

Roope published two photos together with his father on his Instagram account. In the caption, he quotes his own Madafak’s darra – the legendary phrase of his song.

– Well done son, Salminen writes briefly.

In the first picture, father and son are both looking happily at the camera. In the second picture, Roope kisses her father on the cheek.

Roope Salminen also currently has her own child, who was born in April 2020. Eppu Salminen described to Iltalehti in the fall of 2022 that being a single person is comfortable for her.

Eppu said that she sees her grandchild every now and then.

– It’s really nice at these times to have children around, Salminen stated.

– Luckily, the grandchild has other people, I’m not the main one responsible for him, he continued, laughing.

Eppu himself has seven children in total. In addition to Roope, he has an older son Santu and a screenwriter from the current union Kaisa Kuikkaniemi with five children under 10 years old.

– It’s hard at home, but I have a lot of experience in this everyday life with children and it’s really nice with them, Eppu summed up.
