Diana Schell is engaged
The former “Celebrity Big Brother” candidate and presenter of the shopping channel HSE Diana Schell, 52, is not only newly in love, but also engaged, as she reveals to “Bild”. The new man at her side is called Alen, comes from New York – and is 25 years old. “Alen and I met at work last June,” says Schell, her sweetheart also worked for the Munich broadcaster at the time. “He came as the new producer and introduced himself to me. He said, ‘Hi, I’m the American Boy from HSE’ and smiled sympathetically,” she continues.
At first she didn’t know how young the Bosnian native was. The two got along well right away and soon the age difference no longer played a role. “I’ve learned to be happy and content with myself. Then you’re in the right energy, that the right person is suddenly there,” explains Diana Schell. Alen finally proposed to her on New Year’s Eve when they were in Sarajevo together. They also want to tie the knot there – but it is not yet certain when.

Daniela Katzenberger: Mama Iris just attracts the “shit house flies”.
Daniela Katzenberger, 36, and Mama Iris Klein, 56, are one heart and soul. And they know each other very well. The face reader that you visit in the latest episode of “Daniela Katzenberger – Family Happiness on Mallorca” can’t tell you anything new about each other. And yet the two women listen intently to what is supposed to be read on their faces. Above all, Iris gets a pretty exciting assessment, which Daniela also knows how to interpret directly. The face reader explains to the 56-year-old: “You are the seer, who sees things that others do not see, you are a problem solver for others. Anyone who sacrifices is not a hero.” What does he mean? That’s clear to Iris’ daughter. Immediately it shoots out of Dani: “She can be quickly exploited by other people, my mother is like a shithouse fly magnet.”
Who exactly is she referring to? The Mallorcan by choice leaves that open, but it could well be Iris’ ex Peter Klein, 56. Since their separation, there has been a war of roses between the two, which they are only too happy to carry out in public. Is Mama’s new kid, the ominous “Mr. T”, also a “shithouse fly”? Certainly not!
Tom Hanks’ niece makes awkward TV appearance
Tom Hanks, 66, should be ashamed of his relatives these days. His niece made an embarrassing appearance on a reality TV show – in tears and screams. In the show “Claim to Fame” people with famous relatives have to guess who they are. In challenges, they gather clues about it until someone is able to reveal another contestant’s famous family member. That person is then eliminated from the show.
Right at the beginning of the second season of the show, a candidate guesses that opponent Carly Reeves, 39, may be related to Tom Hanks. And he should be right. She reacts to the revelation with tears and a loud exit with screams and curses. On the way to the villa where the contestants are staying during filming, she audibly scolds her comrades: “The damn clues were so damn obvious. Gabriel figured it out, and he’s not even smart.” She wasn’t even allowed to take part in a challenge, Carly continues to rage and complains, yelling and crying: “I didn’t deserve that. I should have more time in front of the camera. I should be here longer. Nobody expected that, nobody.” A park bench was used in the show as a reference to her relationship to the Oscar winner – a reference to a well-known scene from his film “Forrest Gump”.

Yvonne Woelke and Peter Klein work together on “Competition in 4 Walls”.
After the “jungle camp” they dominated the headlines, for their new TV format Yvonne Woelke, 41, and Peter Klein, 56, need clout. In “Competition in 4 Walls” they have to turn a six-room shell into the perfect dream apartment. This requires teamwork. The do-it-yourself format will be broadcast on RTL from July 25, 2023, and it’s already clear: it’s going to be great. Because time pressure, perfectionism and the irrepressible will to win will really strain the nerves of the participants. The teams work, eat and sleep 24 hours a day on the construction site – is there any time for romance between Yvonne and Peter? Wait.

Sharon Battiste and her Jan dare to take the next step
About a year ago, Sharon Battiste, 31, gave her last rose to Jan Hoffmann in the finale of the ninth season “The Bachelorette”. To this day, the two are happy and are now even daring to take the next big step. As the couple reveals to RTL, the reality TV actress is moving from Cologne to Hanover to her loved one. “I didn’t grow up in Cologne either. Sure, it’s not that easy for me. But I’ve decided to take the step and go to Hanover,” she says. Jan is tied to the city in Lower Saxony because of his family’s flower shop.
They have already found a new home there – and they have obviously already given some thought to their future together. “If that suits us at some point, then there will definitely be a wedding at some point or really family planning. But currently the next step is house and life together and we also want to travel a bit. And we’d love to be a couple three with his dog,” says Battiste.
Barbara Schöneberger unknowingly makes a small mistake on the RTL show
“Because they don’t know what’s going to happen” is always good for a surprise. Not only is the hostess only determined at the beginning of the RTL show, the guests and the games are also a little surprise bag. This time, the RTL team had considered a not inconsequential task for Barbara Schöneberger, 49, and playing partner Sasha, 51: Together, the talk queen and the singer should consume six liters of drinks from the refrigerators in the studio during the show – including white wine and liquor. The podcaster of “With a woman’s waffles” suspects evil. “I haven’t eaten anything for four weeks,” she emphasizes to moderator Günther Jauch, 66, and sees the danger of a loose tongue coming.
“I have the lights on all the time,” admits the 49-year-old. Unfortunately, the program that was recorded takes a difficult turn, without Barbara Schöneberger being aware of it. She explains: “I have so much carbonic acid in me, I can’t guarantee anything.” And adds: “I almost implode.” On Twitter, users have little understanding for this funny statement. The reason for this is the fate of the submersible “Titan”, in which five people lost their lives when the vehicle imploded. “Schöneberger imploded. When was that recorded?” Asks a user. “Fortunately, the imploding joke is recorded,” says another, relieved that it didn’t get any worse.

Will Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht put an end to the family series?
The relationship between Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht, 31, and his family has been strained for months. Sister Cheyenne, 22, and Co. are said to be less than enthusiastic about Jimi’s relationship with Laura Marie Geissler, 25. This was already apparent in the second season of the family series “Die Ochsenknechts”. As “Bild” wants to know, the shooting of the third season of the Sky documentary has now started – but without Jimi Blue. However, it remains unclear whether he will actually be absent from the new episodes that will be released in 2024.
“I think, especially after the end of the second season, not only the fans but also we ourselves are excited to see what awaits us in the new season of ‘Die Ochsenknechts’. The fact that we in our family don’t always agree is no secret,” says family head Natascha Ochsenknecht, 58, to “Bild”. A spokesman for Sky is no less vague when asked by RTL: “At the moment, no statement can be made about the content and the cast of the new season, since the shooting will continue for a few months and the family for the reality continues in their everyday life, with all its developments.”
