After his retirement from football, Lennart settled in Falkenberg with his wife and three sons. Two of his sons eventually went on to play for Halmstads BK. His son Niclas helped lead the team to the Svenska Cupen in 1995. He has two grandchildren from his son Niclas and daughter-in-law Frida named Tilda and Noah.[4]
