René Weller’s Widow Reveals Heartbreaking Details After His Death
A year ago, the boxing world mourned the passing of legendary boxer René Weller. His widow, Maria, has now revealed the devastating impact his death had on her in a recent interview.
Maria shared that after René’s death, she plunged into a deep depression, weighing only 48 kilograms and crying every day. The immense grief and heartbreak were almost unbearable.
“My heart was broken,” she said. “I fell into a terrible depression, completely neglected myself.”
However, Maria found strength to carry on. Inspired by a promise she made to René, she began sharing his memories and photos on Instagram. This act of remembrance became a way to keep his legacy alive.
Their love story began in the 1970s when René noticed Maria in a Hanover discotheque. Despite a brief initial relationship, they reunited and married years later. Sadly, their joy was short-lived as René was diagnosed with dementia in 2021.
Maria remains faithful to her late husband and acknowledges that she will never love anyone else. Her resilience and determination to honor René’s memory are truly inspiring.
