Are you sure that Asbjørn was her maternal grandfather, and not paternal, and that Gurli was her grandmother, rather than Rita?
I couldn’t find any info on her father online. However, there is a wikipedia page about her mother. It says that her mother’s parents were Asbjørn and Gurli.

She has German ancestry through the surname “Beha”. 1/64th, to be precise. The surname “Andersson” might also indicate Swedish ancestry.
