Political couple: Reiche and Guttenberg make relationship public

The designated Minister of Economic Affairs Katherina Reiche and the former Defense and Economic Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg are a couple. It was correct that his clients had received a relationship some time ago, the lawyer of Reiche and Guttenberg, Christian Schertz, said to the German press agency on request. Further explanations would not be submitted. He also asked to respect the families’ privacy.

On Monday it became known that the rich Federal Minister of Economics from Luckenwalde in Brandenburg will be in the new black and red coalition. There had already been speculation about a relationship between her and Guttenberg. Many are likely to see the new glamor couple in federal politics in the two.

When the CSU man Guttenberg himself was still a minister, initially for economy and then for defense, he and his wife Stephanie were considered one of the most dazzling couples in German politics – the “German Kennedys”. The Guttenbergs announced their separation in 2023.

Reiche moved into the Bundestag in 1998, which she belonged to until 2015. The CDU politician is considered self -confident and ambitious – and is well networked. From 2005 to 2009, Reich was deputy head of the Union faction, most recently the 51 -year -old mother of three children was in business, as CEO of Western energy.

Guttenberg withdrew from politics after a plagiarism affair in 2011, and the 53-year-old has been a consultant and entrepreneur for years. He also works as a co-producer and moderator of documentaries and other journalistic formats. In autumn 2023 he also published a book entitled “3 seconds – notes from the present”.
