Michael Schumacher's Wife Reveals Mother Disapproved of Their Relationship

Corinna said her mother was against the relationship as the documentary revisits Schumacher’s first world title and rare family memories.

  • In the new Netflix documentary 'Schumacher '94: The Birth of a Legend', Corinna Schumacher offers rare reflections on her early life with Michael Schumacher during his breakthrough 1994 Formula 1 championship season.
  • Her mother initially opposed their romance, Corinna recalled, citing Michael's constant presence at the go-kart track and his single-minded dedication to racing during their early years together.
  • Corinna shared the couple's emotional bond to Paula Abdul's 'Rush Rush,' saying "When I hear it today and I'm in the car, I cry to myself." She also recalled Michael's fan mail from an admirer named Jutta.
  • Since the 2013 skiing accident that left Michael with a traumatic brain injury, the family has maintained strict privacy while Corinna has cared for him at their 15-acre estate in Switzerland.
  • Privacy remains paramount for the family, especially after a "massive breach of trust" last year when three men were sentenced for conspiring to blackmail them for €12.4 million in exchange for 900 photos and 600 videos.
