With Lars / Dominik and Ben / Sissi, the most balanced couples make it into the last round. The third-placed can also be satisfied.

“Today is kind of strange,” says Lars Steinhöfel (35). “It will be another chewing gum day”, says Stephan “Steff” Jerkel (53). As is so often the case with the last episodes in relevant reality shows, the finale of “Das Sommerhaus der Stars” is dead between the decisive games.

The remaining candidates in the almost empty, much too large base camp usually have nothing to say to each other, and certainly nothing bad. After the horror couple Michelle Monballijn (42) and Mike Cees-Monballijn (33) were kicked out in the penultimate episode, sunshine reigns between the remaining couples Benjamin Melzer (34) / Elisabeth “Sissi” Hofbauer (24), Lars Steinhöfel / Dominik Schmitt (31) and Steff Jerkel / Peggy Jerofke (45). So let’s go to the penultimate challenge.

Steff and Peggy grew with the tasks

In the semi-final game, the pairs of blocks have to build a line between them and hold it for 30 seconds by applying pressure. Lars and Dominik are the first to finish. Ben and Sissi follow. Steff and Peggy fail and are thrown out. The TV emigrants who have been married for over twenty years can live well with the defeat. They would not have thought themselves that they would get that far. Although neither the smartest nor the most sporty, they always fought their way through.

The two of them have also developed interpersonal in the house – especially Steff. At the beginning still a grumbling macho, he gave his wife more and more space and recognized her part in the completed games – despite questionable compliments like “you little, ugly animal”. In the end, the self-confessed cleaning muffle even shines on the sink with insert.

Deserved finalists

In the final, Lars / Dominik and Ben / Sissi are not only the fittest and cleverest, but also the “most modern” couples with the best internal communication. Above all, Sissi and Ben always treated each other on an equal footing in the games. Dominik always set the tone for Lars in the challenges and then played the insulted liver sausage. Nevertheless, dealing with Dominik was still respectful, compared to other couples (and that doesn’t just mean Mike and Michelle).

The final game for 50,000 euros is divided into two parts. First, the couples have to saw slices from a log with pure muscle power – and then use a cable pull to maneuver a ball through a heart-shaped labyrinth.

Lars and Dominik are faster: The “Unter uns” actor and the flight attendant leave the sixth season as the winning couple. After the infamous bullying season 2020, this round was relatively harmonious. Only the dominant to psychologically violent behavior of Mike towards his wife Michelle caused serious negative vibrations. But the show also has positive effects for the two problem candidates. Frightened by themselves and the reactions of the audience, they went into couple therapy.
