Gerda Lewis: Ex-“Bachelorette” surprises with love break-up

Gerda Lewis (31) has separated from her partner Jannik Kontalis. The former “Bachelorette” announced this on November 3rd. “The decision to end the relationship was anything but easy for me, as we generally had a great and healthy relationship,” said Lewis. Fans had been speculating about a separation for several weeks. At the end of October, however, Lewis emphasized that they were still together.

However, there are “points and issues that I cannot ignore. I have my values ​​and principles and I remain true to them.” The TV celebrity, who had just appeared on “The Traitors,” didn’t expect to have to part ways. However, the last time has been “a constant ups and down of emotions”, which is why she decided to take this step after much consideration, “even if it hurts”.

Gerda Lewis has had to experience a number of romantic failures in recent years. In 2018 she became known through her participation in “Germany’s Next Top Model”. At the time of the show, she was dating bodybuilder Tobias Timmers, who spoke of “disgusting things” that happened after the breakup and threatened his ex-girlfriend to tell the “truth” about the breakup.

After this love failure, Lewis tried her luck as a “Bachelorette” in 2019. She met Keno Rüst (32) on the RTL dome show, but a few months later everything was over again. The Rose winner shot against his ex: He came to the conclusion that she “somehow tends to narcissism, is very selfish, has little empathy.”

In 2020 it looked as if she had finally found the right person in Melvin Pelzer (30). After a few months of dating, the couple moved into a house together, and Lewis raved about their great feelings. But here too it was over after a few months, the reasons remained hidden.

But Jannik Kontalis isn’t necessarily known for his well-functioning relationships either. In 2022 he conquered the heart of reality star Yeliz Koc (31) on “Make Love, Fake Love” and was then with her for a few months – with interruptions. The couple separated for a time, then got back together and finally separated again, complete with media mudslinging. Mutual accusations and accusations of cheating were the order of the day.
