Overview

  • Torsten Höllerich received about 400,000 DM from his father’s 1991 estate, which he shared equally with his half-sister and uncle.
  • A failed Ibiza restaurant venture and years of property flips in Santa Marta drained his inheritance and left him reliant on sporadic work.
  • Since February 2024 he has operated a YouTube channel reflecting on Roy Black’s life, attracting over 4,100 subscribers.
  • Last year he voluntarily entered a rehabilitation clinic to overcome an alcohol addiction.
  • He and his ex-partner Maria Fernanda have reconciled after losing their second child and now live with their son Dominique in a modest two-room apartment.
