Isabel Johansen Haugseng, the girlfriend of Manchester City star Erling Haaland and a new mother, has recently sparked curiosity among her followers by updating her Instagram bio to reflect a potential shift in her nationality or heritage.
The 19-year-old nutrition student, who was born in Bryne, Norway, now describes herself as “½🇳🇴 | ½🇨🇴” in her bio, suggesting she identifies as half-Norwegian and half-Colombian.
This subtle yet significant change has left fans and followers intrigued, as Isabel’s background has largely been associated with Norway, the same country where her famous partner, Erling Haaland, hails from.
The inclusion of the Colombian flag in her bio hints at a possible Latino heritage, which had not been widely known or discussed before.
Isabel, who returned to Instagram last month after a hiatus, has seen her follower count grow exponentially, now nearing 26,000 followers.
Her social media presence has garnered attention not only because of her relationship with one of football’s biggest stars but also due to her own growing influence as a young mother and student.
While the update in her bio has sparked speculation, Isabel has yet to provide further details about her ancestry or the story behind her Colombian roots.
It remains unclear whether this is a recent discovery about her family history or simply a way to honor a part of her identity that she has chosen to share more openly now.
