Michael Schumacher's Daughter Gina Ties the Knot in Private Ceremony

Gina Schumacher, the 27-year-old daughter of Formula One legend Michael Schumacher, recently got married to her long-time partner Iain Bethke in a highly private ceremony at the Schumacher family's luxury villa in Mallorca.

The wedding took place at Villa Yasmin, a four-acre estate above the Port dAndratx resort, which was purchased by Michael Schumacher's wife, Corinna, in 2017 for a reported 27 million. The villa was previously owned by Real Madrid president Florentino Perez.

Michael Schumacher's Public Appearance

German media outlets have reported that Michael Schumacher, who has been absent from the public eye since suffering a life-changing brain injury in a skiing accident in 2013, was likely in attendance at his daughter's wedding. This marks his first public appearance in many years.

To maintain the privacy of the ailing F1 legend, all guests were required to hand over their mobile phones to the propertys security team upon entering the property, ensuring no unauthorized photos were taken.

Ceremony and Guests

The ceremony, which lasted approximately 30 minutes, took place in a picturesque setting combining beach and mountain scenery. Gina Schumacher wore a white lace bridal gown with spaghetti straps and diamond earrings, while her husband opted for a dark pinstripe suit and white shirt.

Among the attendees were Ralf Schumacher, Michael's brother and a former F1 driver, and his boyfriend, tienne Bousquet-Cassagne. The event may indicate a possible reconciliation between Ralf and his sister-in-law, Corinna, given the recent public fallout following Ralf's announcement of his relationship.

Michael Schumacher's Health and Privacy

Since his skiing accident, Michael Schumacher has been under the close supervision of his wife Corinna and a team of medical professionals at their family home in Geneva. Only a select group of trusted friends and family members have been allowed to visit him during this time.

The family has been fiercely protective of Michael's privacy, and only a few people are aware of the specifics of his condition and care. However, his appearance at the wedding suggests that Corinna's stance on his public appearances may be softening.
