Would you also like your children to study medicine or law? Have you found that school performance isn’t giving you hope and your kids are instead spending their days constantly photographing themselves for their Insta stories? Maybe you shouldn’t show too much understanding, but make clear statements. “Either you make it through school or you go to construction,” Max Söder once said to his son Markus, according to “Frau im Spiegel”. The threat worked. Markus studied law and, as is well known, made it to the Bavarian Prime Minister.

But when we read this week that Söder spends 180,000 euros a year to have photographers take pictures of him during his performances, we felt reminded of our children and their Insta stories. This in turn gives us hope. Do they perhaps have what it takes to become politicians? And even if they then fail comprehensively, they can still make it into the “Bunte” like Andy Scheuer with an appearance at the Salzburg Festival on page 18.
Dream wedding at 65
When the kids are out of the woods, you have time for other things, like finally getting married. “Dream wedding at 65!” is the headline in the “Bunte” newspaper, meaning Birgit Schrowange, who tied the knot with entrepreneur Frank Spothelfer after four years of engagement on a cruise ship. The former Ferrari boss Jean Todt needed even longer, although, as we could read in “Gala”, he had proposed to his chosen one Michelle Yeoh in a hurry after only two months of getting to know each other. But the pit stop lasted 19 years before they finally went down the aisle at full throttle.
For some, it’s also quite easy to live without a marriage certificate. Actress Goldie Hawn, for example, has been with her partner Kurt Russell since 1983 and explains in the “Bunte”: “I like the thought that I wake up in the morning and can decide every day whether I want to be by his side.” So she has that decided to stay with him 14,600 times so far. It also sounds kind of exhausting.

Guido always has a lightbulb with him
But you have to put up with a lot to have it beautiful. Guido Maria Kretschmer, for example, admits to “Echo der Frau” that he always has a lightbulb with him when he travels, “so that you can turn out the savings bulbs by the hotel bed. That makes the light more beautiful.” It’s not a bad idea to design the hotel room according to your own taste. Unfortunately, our husband took the two carpets, three pictures, four vases and ten throw pillows out of the car before leaving for vacation. This caused disagreements and we had to think of Goldie Hawn, but unfortunately we are married.
Statistics show that many marriages take place in the workplace. If you also have your eye on a colleague, you should definitely go to the canteen together several times beforehand. Because “Echo der Frau” knows what your favorite food reveals about a person. For example, if he or she always chooses pasta, you should prick up your ears: “Whether it’s trouble at work or problems with your partner – these guys don’t like to talk about it. They prefer to swallow their worries with the noodles.” It could be better for schnitzel eaters: “They are real family people.” But beware: “Meat lovers can unfortunately also be very hurtful if they sense rejection.”
The magic of symbols
We suspect that Kevin Costner eats a steak every day because, according to “Bunte”, he rudely dumped his wife Christine Baumgartner on the doorstep of his $ 145 million mansion after 18 years of marriage and banished her to a house on his property , which is the size of a mobile home and was previously intended for staff. Friends suspect that the marriage broke up because the Hollywood star no longer paid enough attention to his wife and she looked to other men. It’s possible that Kevin no longer attached emojis with little hearts to his Whatsapp messages when he wrote in the evening: “I’m off work on the set. What’s for dinner?”

Such symbols have a magical power, as chief poet Robert Pölzer writes in the editorial of the “Bunte”. For him, in addition to emojis, this also includes talismans – which can be “master builders of something really big”. A sentence that has been making us think since Thursday. Because the German women’s national team had a talisman, the little koala bear Waru, which Bayern striker Klara Bühl “crocheted in five to six hours” according to dpa. Cute, certainly, but we would have denied that a cuddly toy is a guarantee of great success even before the World Cup; after all, growing up, we had half the room full of stuffed animals and only came third once at the county swimming championships. And only because two other swimmers were sick.
