Former finance minister
Christian Lindner does not want to take parental leave
Former Finance Minister Christian Lindner wants to take some freedom and is talking about investments for his expected child – but he is not planning to take a break from his job.
FDP leader Christian Lindner (45) does not want to take parental leave after the birth of his expected child next year. “That’s not part of my job,” he told the magazine “Bunte”. However, he wanted to take some freedom. He also emphasized that he and his wife Franca Lehfeldt (35) wanted to “establish themselves as equals as a family.”
Christian Lindner has been married to Franca Lehfeldt since 2022
Lindner, who wants to run as the top candidate for his party in the new Bundestag election scheduled for February 23, said that his wife is also very busy in her job. At the end of October 2023, Lehfeldt left the news channel Welt TV, which belongs to the Axel Springer media group, and founded a company.
He wanted to take out an ETF savings plan for his child, “in which something is paid in monthly by the parents or grandparents,” explained Lindner. “Financing training or studying is a big task for families. This effort becomes a little smaller if you spread it out over a longer period of time.”
Christian Lindner and Franca Lehfeldt announced on November 30th that they are expecting offspring for the first time in spring 2025. The two have been a couple since 2018 and married on Sylt in July 2022.
