It was love at first sight and lasted twelve years: the relationship between Janin and Kostja Ullmann. To date, the actress does not seem to have coped with the love off.
In the dance show “Let’s Dance”, Janin Ullmann is dancing to an incredible 30 points, the highest score in the dance contest. In love, the actress, unfortunately, did not get full marks. Tears still come to her eyes when she talks about her failed marriage.
Janin Ullmann scored full points in the dance in the Contemporary category, a kind of contemporary expressive dance. But the story behind the dance to Demi Lovato’s “Stone Cold” is a very personal one. In this type of dance, it is particularly important to convey and reflect emotions through movements. There were a lot of feelings in Ullmann’s movements, because the lyrics of the song made the presenter think of her failed love for her ex-husband Kostja Ullmann.
In 2018, the end of a twelve-year relationship between the two actors became known. In an interview with RTL, Janin Ullmann admitted that the failure of the relationship had “broken her self-esteem”. The 40-year-old even sought professional help in the form of therapy to get over the breakup. But it didn’t quite work out, to this day she admits that she finds it difficult to let go of the love of that time.
Kostja Ullmann was her “love at first sight”
She finds it difficult to pronounce his name. She talks about “my husband at the time” and bows her head as tears well up in her eyes. “It was love at first sight,” admits the actress. Even the very first meeting didn’t end until six in the morning after they had chatted all night. “It was very clear, there were no more questions about it,” she says about the beginning of great love. “I think something like that doesn’t happen that often in life,” says Ullmann.
After ten years of relationship, Kostja and Janin Ullmann got married: “I thought of the very classic thing, with a house, children, dogs, that’s how I imagined it,” she admits. But the end of the relationship came slowly, there was no big bang. The couple grew further and further apart and at some point they “couldn’t reach each other anymore”. The trust was still there, but the love was gone. The feeling that she was “not enough” as a person for Kostja Ullmann broke her self-esteem.
Therapy rebuilt the “Let’s Dance” contestant and the couple managed to remain friends as well. The couple has not officially divorced, despite almost four years of separation. But in the interview she also says that for the first time she is happy with herself and being alone.
