The 16th season of "Germany's next top model" is in the starting blocks (from February 4th, 8:15 pm on ProSieben). Jacky Wruck (22) won the 2020 model show. In an interview with the news agency spot on news, she talks about her time in the Heidi Klum (47) show and her beginnings in the modeling business. She also reveals whether she would work as a veterinary specialist again and why she has an "ambivalent" relationship with her social media presence.

What happened to you after your win at "GNTM" and what was your conclusion a year later?

Jacky Wruck: Because of Corona, my time after my victory was definitely different from the years before. Still, my life has changed a lot. I don't know boredom and being a person in public now brings with it both beautiful and negative things. I'm on my way and "GNTM" was an important part of it. I would go the same way again and again. I think I made the best possible use of the time after my win and saw opportunities in Corona and made the most of these opportunities.

Are you missing anything from the "GNTM" era or are you glad that the chapter is over?

Wruck: Both. I miss many moments and regularly, mentally and happily, go back to this time, the moments and the feelings. I loved every challenge without exception and I will never forget that time! Yes, it was tough, a time full of ups and downs, but that's part of life, especially when you leave your comfort zone. Nevertheless, I am glad that the chapter is closed, do not regret it and live in the present with my view towards the future.

How do you have to imagine your everyday life today?

Wruck: I don't have an everyday life. My days always look different. If I can do it myself, it's a good mix of animals, job, sport, travel and time at home with my family and friends. The focus changes in phases and that's cool because it never gets boring and there is no fixed routine.

Has the corona pandemic made your start into the modeling business difficult?

Wruck: Corona is definitely a challenge, but not an insurmountable obstacle.

Did you feel pressure or fear to concentrate fully on modeling?

Wruck: No, I'm not under any pressure or fear about my job or while I'm in front of the camera. Like many in life, I am of course a little afraid of the future because you never know what will happen, but that is the course of life.

Can you imagine working as a veterinary assistant again in the near future?

Wruck: I will never rule out this option and there is security in the event that things do not go well, having learned a trade. But first of all I concentrate on my current job, love it and see what the future will bring.

You have 300,000 Instagram subscribers. Do you enjoy designing your account or is it more of a compulsory task?

Wruck: It's very ambiguous. On the one hand I am very happy about this community, I like to share selected content from my life and want to show people that I am only human. At the same time, I don't want to be the typical influencer. At the moment I'm still looking for a way that I feel 100% comfortable with. Instagram is a cool platform if you learn to deal with all the advantages and disadvantages and to go your own way.

Do you still have any points of contact with "GNTM" today?

Wruck: Yes, I still have a lot of points of contact and I am very grateful for that. The people there were part of a very important journey and I am happy to have taken one or the other person with me into my life after "GNTM" as a good friend.

What tips would you give the upcoming "GNTM" winner?

Wruck: Be yourself and never forget that life in public is tough. Do not let every criticism reach you and make a clear distinction between hate and constructive criticism. You alone decide who you are and it's all in YOUR hands. Enjoy every single moment of the journey.

What else would you like to achieve as a model, is there a dream job?

Wruck: Here too we let ourselves be surprised! I don't like to talk about my dreams and unlaid eggs because otherwise they may no longer come true or they may suddenly be destroyed.
