Helle changed her last name from Lotinga to Virkner in 1944. Helle Virkner was married three times. First to actor William Rosenberg (1944–1949), then to actor Ebbe Rode (1949–1958), and her third marriage was to the then Foreign Minister of Denmark and later Prime Minister Jens Otto Krag (1914–1978), with whom she had one child, daughter Astrid Helene 'Søsser' Krag, a journalist and former model. Krag also had a soon from a previous relationship named Jens Christian Stephan Krag. Helle and Søsser lived together in sheltered housing in Charlottenlund in the last years of Helle's life.
