Overview

• In a joint Bunte interview, Höfl‑Riesch confirms she has been dating longtime friend Johann Schrempf for about half a year after years of knowing each other through cruise‑ship circles.
• Höfl‑Riesch, 40, and Schrempf, 65, downplay their roughly 25‑year age gap and visible height difference, saying equality in a partnership does not depend on age or stature.
• She cites long stretches apart and small communication windows when he works across distant time zones, including New Zealand with a ten‑hour difference, as the main challenge.
• Both offer warm praise, with her describing him as caring, uncomplicated, and an excellent host and cook, and him calling her cheerful, precise, and reliable.
• Coverage notes her January 2025 divorce from Marcus Höfl, with reports differing on whether the marriage lasted 13 or 14 years, and she says it is too early to discuss marriage with Schrempf though she does not rule it out.
