Federal press ball in Berlin: eye-catcher appearance by Annalena Baerbock

In the 72nd Federal Press Ball on April 4 at the Hotel Adlon in Berlin, the vaginal Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock (44) particularly provided discussion. Not only because she was wearing an eye-catcher outfit. But also because she met her still husband Daniel Holefleisch at the event.

In November 2024, the Greens politician and the communications consultant announced her separation after 17 years of marriage. “We decided together in a long process that we are no longer a couple,” she said in a statement at the time. A few months later, both now visited the federal press ball – but not together. Annalena Baerbock posed for the photographers alongside the Green Group Chairman Katharina Dröge (40). She wore a long evening dress with long sleeves and in a striking rotoranger color.

Meanwhile, Daniel Holefleisch quickly gave past the cameras, as RTL reported. He didn’t talk to the media either. The two married in 2007, their daughters were born in 2011 and 2015. In 2023, Baerbock and Holef meat had shown themselves together at the federal press ball.

Others were now doing this: The outgoing finance minister Jörg Kukies (57) chose the event to celebrate the first public appearance with his wife.

The political prominence gathered for this occasion for the 72nd time. The motto was 2025: “For democracy. Strengthen press freedom”. The most moving appearance once again delivered Margot Friedländer (103). The Holocaust survivor came on the stage in a wheelchair and warned in her speech: “The motto of the evening could not be more top. Because without freedom of the press there is no freedom of democracy. I would like to ask you warmly.
