After the divorce, they met for coffee: the influencer Cathy Hummels and the footballer Mats Hummels are now officially divorced. This was announced by Cathy Hummels (34) on Instagram on Monday. “We look back and remember our time together as a couple,” the influencer said in the social media post. “Now we’re divorced, but we’re optimistic that we’ll have a future together as parents and friends. After that we had a coffee together.”
The “Bild” newspaper had previously reported – according to which the long-time national soccer player Mats Hummels (34) showed up ten minutes late at the divorce date. “There are appointments where you shouldn’t be late,” Cathy Hummels posted online at noon, obviously alluding to it.
She also wrote on Instagram: “We had a lot of ups and downs, but we are also aware that our son and both of us are better off if we treat each other with respect. Thank you for you as people @aussenrist15.” This is her ex-husband’s Instagram name. She concluded with the words: “Now a new chapter in my life is beginning and I’m going to say goodbye to Germany for 2 months. PS: In a war there are never winners, only losers.”
Cathy didn’t want to go back to Dortmund
At the end of October, Cathy Hummels openly confirmed the separation – after more than 13 years together. In the documentary “Cathy Hummels – Everything at the beginning” on RTLzwei she said: “We tried to avoid the separation, but in the end it was Mats who said: I can’t do it anymore and I don’t want to continue like this .”
The sticking point was that she stayed in Munich when her husband switched from FC Bayern back to Borussia Dortmund in 2019. “I didn’t want to go back,” she said, explaining that she had two severe depressions when she first came to Dortmund.
But her husband wanted her around more. “I had a choice: either I lose him or I lose myself and I had to decide for myself,” Hummels said on the show, tearfully speaking of “sadness about Mats and that we just couldn’t do it”. She tries to see headlines about it with humor. “But it still hurts,” she said. “We were inseparable for thirteen years – or thirteen and a half.”
