Sophia Thomalla: What she regrets after Rudi Assauer's death
One day after football legend Rudi Assauer (1944-2019) died, Sophia Thomalla (29) also spoke up. In a long Instagram post, she shares her memories of her mother's ex-partner and the husband "with whom one spent 10 years Easter, Christmas, holidays".
Check out this post on InstagramIt did not seem right to me yesterday, after receiving the message to instantly upload something on Instagram, which only roughly explains how it works. All write he was the great doer, the Schalke legend, macho and good soul, but what one writes about the man with whom one spent 10 years Easter, Christmas, holidays, one went to school, the office of the school principal I deliberately squirted after telling him that I had skipped a few lessons and what should I do, then turns out to be quite difficult for me. The man I used to ruffle for no reason, just because I was 14 years old and a pubic brat. The man with whom one has experienced successes and failures. With whom one cried together when in 2001 Schalke lost the championship. Incidentally, one of the worst days of my life to this day. I do not know what I feel. Grief, of course, but not only that. For years I've told myself it's a better decision not to try to make contact. Now I'm turning 30, and in retrospect, I realize I'm sorry. I also have to say that life is too short. Unfortunately, a relationship with the family in the end was not really there, means I will not say goodbye. Nevertheless, he remains in my heart for me. As Rudi, not as a doer.

She also talks about funny scenes, such as remembering how he "drove her to school" or how he "deliberately" squirted the headmaster's office after telling him I had skipped a few lessons and what was the matter? I should be ".
The ten years that Sophia Thomalla and Rudi Assauer have spent under one roof may not always have been the easiest, as the 29-year-old remembers that he was "the man I've always ruffed for no reason, just because I was 14 years old and a pubescent brat ". Successes and failure were experienced together and "wept together when Schalke lost the championship in 2001" - by the way, this is one of the worst days of her life, according to Thomalla.
That regrets Sophia Thomalla
And then Sophia Thomalla becomes very thoughtful. Self-critical, she writes:
I do not know what I feel. Grief, of course, but not only that. For years I've told myself it's a better decision not to try to make contact. Now I'm turning 30, and in retrospect, I realize I'm sorry.
She also found that life was too short.
Whether she will be able to say goodbye to Assauer as part of the funeral service organized by the family, is apparently still in the stars. Because Thomalla indicates that she will probably not attend the funeral. In the heart, he still remains for her. "As Rudi, not as a doer."
Sophia Thomalla's mother, actress Simone Thomalla (53, "Spring"), and Rudi Assauer were a couple from 2000 to 2009 and lived with their daughter from their first marriage in Gelsenkirchen. Sophia Thomalla's biological father is the actor André Vetter.
