Eric Philippi revealed at the “Schlagerbooom Open Air” that he proposed to his partner Michelle.
Florian Silbereisen’s (42) show “Schlagerbooom Open Air” had a number of surprises in store on Saturday evening (June 8). Due to the bad weather in Kitzbühel, Austria, a recording from the previous day was apparently broadcast on Das Erste.
Meanwhile, there was good news from the two singers Michelle (52) and Eric Philippi (27). Silbereisen first explained: “Last year here at the ‘Schlagerbooom Open Air’ you announced that you were a couple. You made a lot of headlines,” added the 42-year-old. “Not everyone believed that you would stay together for long, but today you can say that they were wrong. You are far from just a couple, you live together, you work together.” Eric Philippi replied that he fondly remembers the nervousness he had a year ago, “especially because there were not only positive voices.” The singer then continued: “We were able to prove the opposite. For me it was clear from the first second anyway and we had been together for a little longer at that point, secretly.”
“Of course I said yes”
The 27-year-old also said: “We have been through the deepest lows together, but also the highest highs. It was clear to me: this is the woman for my life and I want to spend the rest of my life with this woman.” That’s why he “asked her the question of all questions about two months ago.” Michelle added: “He asked me if I wanted to marry him and of course I said yes.” However, there are no concrete plans yet, says Eric Philippi, “we’ll probably do it privately.”
The couple is also apparently already planning a family. On June 2nd, they revealed on the RTL talk show “stern TV am Sonntag” that they are thinking about adoption.
