Reports Indicate Michael Schumacher Is Not Bedridden And Uses A Wheelchair

The update comes from a Daily Mail investigation based on anonymous sources, with no confirmation from Schumacher’s family.

Overview

  • The report says the seven-time F1 champion is moved around his properties in a wheelchair by nurses and therapists providing round-the-clock care.
  • Sources cited describe extremely limited communication, reportedly via blinks, with partial understanding of his surroundings.
  • Family spokesperson Sabine Kehm declined to provide updated information, continuing a long-standing policy of strict privacy.
  • The investigation disputes claims that he attended daughter Gina’s 2024 wedding and says he does not suffer from locked-in syndrome.
  • Reporting places his care between residences in Mallorca and Gland, Switzerland, where heavy security restricts access and independent verification.
