In New Interviews, Ronja Forcher Calls 2017 Playboy Shoot a Necessary Act of Self-Empowerment

The longtime 'Der Bergdoktor' actor ties the choice to rejecting rigid beauty ideals, a view shaped by early loss.

Overview

  • Reflecting to Bild am Sonntag, relayed by Promiflash, Forcher says she "had to" pose in 2017 and now sees the nude shoot as a personal milestone.
  • She recalls a year of self-doubt about her body before deciding to make a statement about freedom and sexuality beyond her on-screen image.
  • The shoot occurred in southern France when she was 20, and her cover later placed third in a 2017 audience vote.
  • Forcher notes steady support from husband Felix Briegel and describes a grounded life in Potsdam that includes vegetarian habits, CrossFit and long walks.
  • The 29-year-old, who has portrayed Lilli Gruber on ZDF's 'Der Bergdoktor' since 2008, also cites the early death of a close friend—as well as formative family experiences reported by Promipool—as key influences on her outlook.
