Ralf Schumacher, the younger brother of racing legend Michael Schumacher, has confirmed his relationship with a mystery man.
The 49-year-old shared a photo of his partner on Instagram on Sunday. He captioned a snap taken at sunset “The most beautiful thing in life is when you have the right partner by your side with whom you can share everything.”
Ralf, who achieved 6 Formula 1 Grand Prix wins during his illustrious career, was previously married to German TV star Cora-Caroline Brinkmann for 14 years before their divorce in 2015. They share a 22-year-old son named David, who has followed in his father’s racing footsteps.
“I am very happy that you have finally found someone with whom you really feel that you feel very comfortable and secure, no matter if [it is] a man or a woman,” he began. “I am 100% behind you Dad and wish you all the best and congratulations.”
While Ralf is yet to confirm the identity of his partner, actress Carmen Geiss stated that he’s dating his business manager. According to Mail Online, the German star, a close friend of the couple, said that they had been together for two years already.
“They met in Monaco. Ralf lives in Salzburg with his son, Etienne lives in Nice. But the two are together quite often,” she told BILD. “Robert [Carmen’s husband] and I are very happy for Ralf and Etienne. It’s finally out, it’s just wonderful that the two of them are now living out their love.”
Beneath Ralf’s post, Carmen also noted her support on Sunday. “I love you both so much,” she wrote in the comments. “You have the best partner, Etienne, you can imagine. After two years you can finally show your love to the world. I have known Ralf for more than 25 years and he has always been a great joy to me.
“Always liberal, a good-hearted person who I can call day and night and above all has always been honest with me in his position. I am happy that I got to be a part of this love and even more happy for the two who searched and found each other, because I also love Etienne deeply.”
