Private chats were published in the bitter divorce between Ralf and Cora Schumacher. Carmen Geiss has no understanding for such behavior.
St. Tropez – Since Ralf Schumacher (46) came out and made his relationship with Étienne (34) public on Instagram, nothing has happened to the racing driver. In the weeks that followed, his ex-wife Cora (47) also got involved and tearfully claimed that she had only found out about Schumacher's coming out through the media. The ex-couple have been engaged in a public dispute since then, with both accusing the other of spreading untruths. To support their respective positions, the Schumachers even published private chat messages – a practice that Ralf's girlfriend Carmen Geiss (59) actually rejects.
“Brave decision”: The Geissens are thrilled by Ralf’s coming out
Carmen Geiss is delighted with the support Ralf Schumacher has received for his coming out. She captioned it on her Instagram account as a “courageous decision” and an “act of liberation and self-acceptance”. Shortly after Ralf's confession, she published a photo with the lovers and wrote: “I have known and loved him infinitely for many years. His presence in my life is a blessing, and our deep bond has only grown stronger over the years.”
The millionaire family also talks about their friend's coming out in their podcast “Die Geissens”. In the first episode, which was uploaded to RTL+ on August 27, they emphasize how proud they are of Ralf Schumacher. Carmen also notices how many people are happy for the racing driver and Étienne: “Many people show tolerance.”
Although the Schumachers did it too: Carmen Geiss thinks chat publications are “shit”
In their podcast, the Geissens also talk about a TikTok trend that Carmen Geiss cannot understand. In these videos, people publish text or voice messages from their ex-partners for entertainment. The millionaire's wife finds this behavior “very primitive.” She goes on to explain: “I think we loved each other at some point, I assume.” […] These are intimate things. I think that's so shit. I'm so glad I don't have an ex.”
Although Carmen Geiss makes no reference to Ralf and Cora Schumacher in her statements, the question arises whether she is indirectly criticizing the behavior of the Schumachers, who also published text messages. However, there is a small difference between the TikTok trend and the Schumachers – because the ex-couple is not publishing the chats for entertainment purposes, but to prove that they are telling the truth in the war of roses and that, in their opinion, she is lying to them.
When the argument between Ralf and Cora Schumacher broke out, Carmen Geiss immediately stood by her friend. “I completely agree with you, Ralf. “You and Etienne simply belong together!!!” she commented under an Instagram photo of the racing driver, which sparked a heated discussion among her followers.
