Her parents Pia Cramling and Juan Manuel Bellón López are also chess players and both hold the title of Grandmaster (GM). With her mother and father being Swedish and Spanish respectively, Cramling grew up in both Sweden and Spain and speaks both Swedish and Spanish in addition to English. She launched her own Twitch channel in early 2020 after having the chance to commentate with her mother on the 2020 Women's World Chess Championship match between Ju Wenjun and Aleksandra Goryachkina earlier in the year. After about a year of streaming on Twitch, she signed with Panda, becoming their first chess streamer as well as the first Swedish chess player to sign with an eSports organisation.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
