At the former Chancellor’s home
Merkel watches medical shows – her husband does the laundry
He washes, she cooks – the roles in the former Chancellor’s house are quite clearly assigned. And it’s not just going to the opera that provides relaxation.
In the household of Angela Merkel and her husband Joachim Sauer, the roles are clearly assigned. In a conversation with the comedian Hazel Brugger, the former chancellor revealed that her husband could cook – but she was usually the one in the kitchen: “It’s become so common that I cook most of the time,” said Merkel. “That’s why he takes care of the laundry.”
The reason for the interview, which can be found on the Internet platform YouTube, was the publication of Merkel’s memoirs. While writing the 700-page book, the former head of government relaxed with television series – preferably series about “hospitals, doctors, medicine,” as the 70-year-old admitted. “That just distracted me.”
