Overview
- RTL confirmed the pair have been separated for about five months, with the breakup kept private until the reunion to avoid spoiling the broadcast.
- Host Frauke Ludowig announced on air that Klotz would join from a separate room at Pilz’s request, which Pilz framed as a mental‑health safeguard.
- Pilz characterized the past relationship as toxic and an emotional dependency and said she is in therapy to process the experience.
- Infidelity claims surfaced when participant Pascal Zadow alleged a witness and Pilz said she holds chats, photos and call records; these assertions have not been independently verified and Klotz denies cheating, citing supposed break periods.
- Klotz called the reunion seating a “power play” and said he is moving on, as both continued to trade statements on social media following the broadcast.
