FORMER F1 driver Ralf Schumacher has recently shared the news that he’s in a new relationship.
Here’s all you need to know about his ex-wife Cora, the Playboy and Only Fans model he was married to for 14 years.
Cora Schumacher is the ex-wife of former Formula One driver Ralf Schumacher.
She was born Cora-Caroline Brinkmann in Langenfeld, Germany, in 1976.
The German TV and media personality has appeared on a host of top shows including the country’s versions of Top of the Pops and Let’s Dance.
Cora has also featured on the cover of GQ, Maxim and Playboy, and is on the adult subscription-based platform Only Fans.
She entered the world of motor racing in 2004 – at one point becoming the highest-paid female driver in the world.
In January she was kicked off the German version of I’m A Celeb after just three days in the jungle.
Show bosses were concerned she might reveal too much about the condition of Ralf’s brother Michael Schumacher, who suffered a brain injury in 2013 after a skiing accident.
Ralf Schumacher married Cora in 2001.
They tied the knot at a church ceremony in Maria Plein, near Salzburg in Austria.
Their engagement was announced shortly after Ralf’s first career win, when the then-25-year-old appeared at the paddock of the Spanish Grand Prix alongside Cora.
Both of them were wearing rings, with Schumacher’s team confirming they were set to get hitched shortly after.
Cora and Ralf Schumacher divorced in 2015.
They had been married for 14 years before they split.
Nonetheless, the pair are still thought to be close.
Ralf congratulated his ex-wife after it was announced she’d signed up for the German version of I’m A Celeb.
Cora and Ralf Schumacher have one child together.
David Schumacher was born on October 23, 2001, and is in his early 20s.
He’s followed in the family footsteps by becoming a racing driver, recently competing in the 2023 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters with Mercedes-AMG Team Winward.
Ralf Schumacher took to social media to announce he’s now in a same-sex relationship with his business manager Étienne.
He shared a heartfelt post to his Instagram page of them both standing arm-in-arm on a boat.
He captioned the post: “The most beautiful thing in life is when you have the right partner by your side with whom you can share everything.”
