Natalia Wörner Films Eighth 'Die Diplomatin' Episode in Rome

Her reflections on privacy underscore calls for pay parity with equal professional standards for women in acting

Overview

  • Wörner spent weeks shooting in Rome for ARD’s Die Diplomatin and will reprise Karla Lorenz for an eighth episode airing on 23 August.
  • She finds inspiration in predawn walks through nearly empty streets of the Eternal City, calling Rome a living museum that fuels her creativity.
  • After long shooting days she treats herself to pistachio gelato outside the Spanish Steps, where sitting is now prohibited.
  • She maintains firm boundaries around her private life and declines to discuss personal matters despite past headlines about her relationship with ex-foreign minister Heiko Maas.
  • She highlights that despite progress the acting industry still suffers pay disparities and uneven standards for women and notes her Italian has improved enough to order coffee elegantly.
