Their daughter was only born in May: BVB legend Roman Weidenfeller and his wife Lisa surprisingly announced their separation.
Roman Weidenfeller (43) and his wife Lisa (35) will go their separate ways in the future. The former national goalkeeper confirmed the separation of the “Bild” newspaper. “It’s true, Lisa and I are no longer a couple. We separated amicably,” explains Weidenfeller. He and his estranged wife still tried to save their marriage. “However, we unfortunately found that it no longer works in the long term.”
“For us, our two children come first,” continued the former Dortmund keeper. “Of course, as parents we will look after their well-being together.” Daughter Luna was only born in May of this year. Their son Leonard was born in 2016.
Already separated once for two years
This is not the first separation for Lisa and Roman Weidenfeller. The couple announced the end of their relationship in 2018, shortly after the goalkeeper ended his career. At that time too, Weidenfeller spoke in the “Bild” newspaper about an amicable separation. Two years later they dared to make a love comeback. Daughter Luna was supposed to crown the new happiness.
Roman Weidenfeller and his Lisa met in 2010 – in the BVB stadium, where Weidenfeller was in goal at the time. There is said to have been a spark in a VIP lounge owned by her father, the boss of a construction company. Five years later the couple married.
