Dark clouds in the patchwork sky: There is a real clash between Pietro Lombardi and Sarah Engels. That is what the mega argument between the ex-couple is about.
Patchwork nightmare? The sparks are flying in public between the former “DSDS” dream couple Pietro Lombardi (32) and Sarah Engels (31). In a statement in his Instagram story, the singer makes serious accusations against his ex-wife, to which both the singer and her current husband Julian Engels (31) have already responded. At the center of the dispute is the treatment of Sarah and Pietro’s son Alessio (9). That is what the mega argument between the ex-couple is about.
Sarah Engels on holiday without son Alessio
It all started with an actually harmless question sticker in Sarah Engels’ Instagram story, with which she asked her fans to ask her questions about her current vacation in Japan with her husband Julian and their daughter Solea (2). A number of fans also seemed to want to know why she had traveled to Japan without Alessio. In response to a screenshot of some critical questions, she posted a statement in which she explained that she would not comment on “such private matters”. There are areas in her life that for her “do not belong in the public eye for good reasons” and that she deliberately keeps out. “I hope you understand that I want to act here to protect my family.”
Pietro Lombardi feels attacked
Pietro Lombardi evidently saw this statement as an attack on his fatherly qualities. From his vacation with his son Alessio, he posted online: “I just want to enjoy the time with my son. But what you’re posting is simply a personal attack against the father of your child,” he explained to his ex-wife. “You would prefer that Alessio see Julian as a father. Alessio also tells me that he has to call him daddy. No matter what woman I have in my life, none of them is called mommy, because there is only one mommy and that is you.”
He and his girlfriend Laura Maria Rypa (28) would only wish the best for Engels’ family. “But the problem is, you don’t wish it for us,” said the 32-year-old. “You hate it when Alessio is here. He tells me more than you think.” While he leaves messages on Instagram that Sarah Engels is a bad mother unanswered, in his opinion she acts differently: “Why don’t you just answer the question with ‘Because he’s on vacation with his father and having a good time,'” complains Pietro Lombardi.
Whenever something nice happens in his family, his ex-wife makes a negative comment. “Now Laura is pregnant, which is nice for us as a family, and you come up with some accusations against the father of your child. You don’t want us to enjoy the moment, you want your name to be somewhere.” In addition, Engels’ mother has been trying to disparage him as a father for seven years. “You would stop at nothing to harm me.”
This is how Sarah’s husband Julian Engels reacts
This angry speech on Instagram prompted Julian Engels to post online: “I usually stay out of everything, but in the face of a series of endless lies to intentionally harm my wife, I would like to make it clear: For four and a half years I have always been called by name and there was never a daddy or any other option!” Pietro Lombardi is “always and without question the father” for Alessio. He and his wife were “always respectful out of decency” – he can be glad that they “always keep our mouths shut about everything”.
Sarah Engels let her fans know about Pietro’s accusations from their vacation in Japan: “Never let yourself be defeated by people who challenge you to war. Be the smarter one. Be the more reasonable one and stick to yourself! (…) Justice cannot be fought for – it comes when it thinks it is right, it comes all by itself.”
Pietro Lombardi and Sarah Engels got together in 2011 as part of “Deutschland sucht den Superstar”. The wedding in 2013 was followed by Alessio’s birth, and the couple finally separated in 2016. Both are now in new relationships and have more children: Lombardi is expecting his second child with his fiancée Laura Maria Rypa, and Engels has a daughter with her husband Julian Engels.
