After the punks, the political celebrities are now coming to Germany’s northernmost island: the wedding celebrations of Finance Minister Lindner and his partner Franca Lehfeldt begin on Thursday.
The mayor of the municipality of Sylt, Nikolas Häckel (independent), will officially marry Federal Finance Minister Christian Lindner (FDP) and his partner Franca Lehfeldt on Thursday.
He will be the registrar, Häckel told the German press agency dpa. The “Hamburger Abendblatt” had previously reported.
Is the chancellor coming to the wedding?
Celebrations will continue on Sylt in the coming days: As the German Press Agency learned from FDP circles on Tuesday, there should be a bachelorette party on Friday and on Saturday Lindner and Lehfeldt want to say yes in a church. According to media reports, numerous celebrities are on the guest list – including Chancellor Olaf Scholz. The couple themselves have not given any information about the upcoming wedding.
Lehfeldt works as a political reporter for the Welt news channel, which belongs to the Axel Springer media group. It was announced last October that she and Lindner got engaged. “We are overjoyed,” said Lehfeldt the broadcaster RTL, for which she was still working. It will be the second marriage for Lindner, he was already married to the journalist Dagmar Rosenfeld.
Not only do the islanders themselves get married on Sylt, but also many guests. “Before Corona, we had about 800 weddings a year with different numbers of guests,” said Häckel. There are four permanent registrars on the island as well as three “temporaries”, these are registrars who work permanently in a different department.
