Michelle and Eric Philippi Confirm Split

Marie Reim says she has been her mother’s main support as reports place the singer on a developing path away from music toward spiritual healing under the name Wakan.

Overview

  • The couple ended a roughly four-year relationship that included a public engagement in February and was publicly confirmed as a split in early May.
  • Michelle has spoken openly about intense emotional pain after the breakup, describing prolonged grief, anger and heavy upset in Instagram statements reported in May.
  • Marie Reim told reporters at the Die Verräter premiere on Tuesday that she has been very present for her mother and continues to provide steady emotional support.
  • Both Michelle and Eric have removed joint photos and other shared images from their social channels, a move outlets say makes a reunion appear unlikely.
  • FOCUS reports that Michelle is reportedly stepping back from the music business to pursue work as a spiritual healer using the name Wakan, a developing claim that has not been independently confirmed but is supported by family statements.
