Around five months after the birth of her second son, Philipp Plein announces her separation from Lucia Bartoli. The designer already has a new partner – and will soon be a father again.

After son Rocket, 1, Philipp Plein, 46, and Lucia Bartoli welcomed their second child into the world at the beginning of October last year: son Rouge. But now the designer announces the separation – and a little later confirms that he is expecting another child with his new partner.

Philipp Plein posts a video on his Instagram account that shows him in happy times with Lucia Bartoli. “5 years of joy, happiness and unconditional love,” he begins his post, adding: “Lucia and I have decided together to announce our official separation.” He further explains that he and Lucia got back together again in March 2023 after a brief separation. But at the end of October – a few weeks after the birth of her second son – the love finally ended.

But the designer assures that there was never a “real argument” between them and that they want to maintain a friendly relationship in the future. “We decided to continue our relationship as best friends and as the best parents we can be to our children. We still love and respect each other like we did on the first day of our relationship – and we will continue to be a happy family for ours 2 wonderful children stay together.” They also want to continue to spend as much time together as possible: “We will continue like this in the future with new life partners.”

Speaking of “new life partners”: Shortly after the separation was announced, the entrepreneur’s management confirmed to RTL that he is now in a relationship with model Andreea Sasu. But that’s not all, the happy couple is already expecting their first child together. Philipp Plein, who has son Romeo, 10, from a previous relationship, will become a father for the fourth time.

A good friend of Plein and Sasu posted pictures on Instagram in which the already pronounced baby bump can be seen. In an interview with “Bild”, the designer also confirmed the pregnancy. “Philipp and Andreea are together and want to live a modern patchwork family with Lucia for the children,” Plein’s management told RTL.
