Tobias Moretti’s wife Julia had a serious quad accident in the summer of 2022. The actor still speaks of a “lucky year”.
The oboist Julia Moretti, wife of Tobias Moretti, 63, had a serious accident with a quad in the summer of 2022. Today the actor still looks back on a “lucky year” – and explains why he sees it that way.
Tobias Moretti: “I can’t see any misfortune here”
“Many say: What luck in misfortune! And immediately afterwards I said to everyone: I can’t see any misfortune here. She’s alive, she doesn’t have paraplegia, she can still play the oboe,” says Moretti in an interview with “Picture on Sunday”. It is “a blessing”.
At first, his wife’s accident in June didn’t bother him at all. At first, the Austrian “strangely had no shock at all”, so he was “very rational and worked”. Fortunately, he can “react coolly” in extreme situations. About a month later, however, he was “caught and caught up properly”. “In those weeks I was very fragile,” says Moretti.
Julia Moretti can “actually do everything”
At the end of August 2022, Tobias Moretti was able to confirm that his wife Julia was on the mend. “She feels good, she is with us, she is in life, she is not paralyzed,” he told ORF at the time. She can “actually do everything and she will be her old self again”. And that is “of course great”.
The two have been married since 1997 and have three children together. The eldest daughter of Tobias and Julia Moretti, Antonia, 24, is an actor like her father. The two can be seen together in “In the Net of the Camorra”.
