After the death of extreme athletes
Felix Baumgartner’s girlfriend speaks up for the first time
After the death of the extreme athlete Felix Baumgartner, his partner Mihaela Schwartzenberg expressed himself for the first time – with an emotional post on Instagram.
One day after the tragic death of extreme athlete Felix Baumgartner, his partner Mihaela Schwartzenberg spoke publicly for the first time. The 56-year-old Austrian died on July 17 in a paragliding accident on the Italian Adriatic coast.
The 55-year-old Romanian TV presenter now publishes a moving photo series on Instagram. The pictures show both a portrait of the late extreme athlete and intimate couple shots in happy moments. She writes in English: “My words don’t come out now. But I’m grateful for your. Felix, you were loved. We were love.”
The Instagram POS is accompanied by countless expressions of condolences. “Felix was a hero of our century,” writes a user. Others wish the grieving woman “a lot of strength” for the difficult time.
Felix Baumgartner was famous for stratosphere jump
According to media reports, the couple got to know each other in a TV interview in 2014. Schwartzenberg interviewed Baumgartner for a television program, whereupon he asked about her number. In the same year they became a couple and made their relationship public through joint appearances on the red carpet.
A few hours before his death, Baumgartner had shared a video by Mihaela in his Instagram story. In it she ran through the picture with open hair, a long dress and a parachute over her shoulder, and Baumgartner chose the song “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran. A few hours later, the accident occurred in Porto Sant’elpidio.
