Overview
- Lufen, who spoke on Tuesday's Amira + 1 podcast, said she did not date after her 22‑year relationship and that dating apps like Tinder “do not exist in her world.”
- She described a period after the split when she focused on calming herself and relearning how to be alone once her children moved out.
- Lufen stressed that her stance is personal and noted she has seen dating platforms lead to “very nice relationships” for other people.
- The episode contrasted Lufen’s choices with co‑host Amira Aly’s different path, as Aly has since found a new partner, Christian Düren.
- German outlets published the podcast remarks on August 25, 2026, prompting renewed public attention to how public figures navigate post‑long‑relationship dating and the role of apps in modern romance.
