Omar Rudberg of Young Royals

This week, Tommy is joined by Stockholm-based singer and actor Omar Rudberg. At just 25 years old, Omar has sold out arena shows in Sweden and tours here in America. At 14, he was the opening act for Justin Bieber and One Direction. And aside from his musical accomplishments, he is part of a certain fan-favorite project that further shot him into global superstardom: Young Royals. Young Royals is a teen drama romance series on Netflix that just dropped its third and final season. It follows the fictional Prince Wilhelm of Sweden and his romance with fellow student Simon Ericksson, played by Omar, and all of the wild, messy, beautiful drama that their love story brings. Today, Omar opens up about how he’s feeling with the show coming to an end, his friendship and brotherhood with co-star Edvin Ryding, a sentimental keepsake that he secretly took from the set, some brand-new music announcements, the music that will forever remind him of Young Royals, how proud he is to have been part of a show that celebrates the queer community, a top secret project he is working on with a top secret person, and his final farewell words to the fandom as he signs off from Young Royals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
