Franziska Knuppe (48) has been happily married to her husband Christian for 24 years. So far, there have been no headlines or public disputes between the two. The secret of their love: open and direct communication.

“Of course we also argue, that’s part of every relationship,” says Knuppe in an interview with “Gala” presenter Annika Lau (44). “But we’re not one of those people who give up immediately or keep quiet about it. But then you really talk about it and then it’s fine again.”

There is never a dispute between her and her husband, with whom she has a daughter, such as open tubes of toothpaste or socks lying around. “You don’t have to argue about such topics. I don’t think these are controversial issues,” the model clarifies. Both are the same in this respect, they also leave something “lying around” every now and then.

According to Knuppe, there are always things “that you have to discuss, but that doesn’t mean that you have to argue right away.” In addition, she attaches great importance to privacy. Sharing quarrels with the public, she could not understand.
