Eric and Edith Stehfest Announce Split After 10 Years

Eric cites a depressive episode alongside long‑standing schizophrenia as factors in the breakup.

Overview

  • The former GZSZ actor confirmed the separation on Instagram and said they will remain a team for their two children.
  • He told media that their feelings had changed and that they had long been more best friends than a traditional couple.
  • He linked the decision to his mental‑health crisis, including an acute depressive phase and a clinic stay in October 2024.
  • Edith has not issued a detailed response and appeared in Thailand in social media posts with influencer Julian Zietlow, with no relationship status confirmed.
  • The couple had earlier created distance and denied breakup rumors on MDR's Riverboat, and they now request privacy while committing to cooperative co‑parenting.
