Lennart Ensio Matikainen (born 23 September 1962) is a Swedish relationship coach.

Biography[edit]

Matikainen is a former athlete.[1][2]

He hosted a radio show on relationships called "Fråga Lennart" at Sveriges Radio P4, and worked as a relationship coach for the reality TV show Skilsmässohotellet, produced by TV4 in 2016.[3] Soon after the first episode of the programme, it was discovered that Matikainen had made multiple racist and sexist posts in social media channels.[4] TV4 decided not to keep Matikainen in the show, and stated that they had no plans to employ him further.[5]

In the 2018 parliamentary election, Matikainen ran for the ultra-right wing political party Alternative for Sweden.[6] He was one of the hosts for the YouTube channel Swebbtv, which was closed by YouTube in December 2020. The magazine Expo described the channel as far-right and conspiratist.[7]
