Just a few days ago it became known that soccer world champion Mats Hummels (33) and his wife Cathy have filed for divorce after more than a year of physical separation. The presenter and mother of their four-year-old son Ludwig spoke to the magazine BUNTE about her state of mind as part of her “Strong Mind Retreat” in Tyrol.

“I’ve learned to put my needs first – after my son,” says Cathy Hummels (34). And further: “I couldn’t do that for a long time. I wanted to do everything to have a happy marriage, have everyday family life Organized, the holidays, everything. And then at the age of 24 I had the worst depression of my life, with panic attacks. I loved my husband very much and always wanted to take care of everything perfectly, but it didn’t go on like this.”

Today she is doing well again, Cathy Hummels also explains to BUNTE: “I feel free and full of power. That’s a good feeling.”

Cathy would like to give this feeling to other women at her “Strong Mind Retreats” and draw attention to the importance of mental health. At the end of May she organized the first exclusive retreat with eleven prominent participants at Lake Achensee in Austria. Hostess Cathy Hummels is dedicated to raising awareness of the topic of depression and mental health, including with her own “Cathy Hummels Program” in favor of the German Depression Aid.
