Michelle and newcomer Eric Philippi don't simply light up the stage. In private, they should form an excellent couple.
Fans have guessed it for weeks, and now "Bild" has confirmed it: pop star Michelle (41) should be in love again after a lengthy period of being single! Eric Philippi, who is 25 years his junior and presently has his single "Schockverliebt" at the top of the pop charts, is the lucky one. His career has taken off when he won Florian Silbereisen's (41) ARD "Schlager-challenge" in 2021.
Michelle and Eric Philippi met through Florian Silbereisen's presentations a long time ago. Michelle requested Eric to be a guest vocalist on her major tour in the spring, and she commented on Instagram that she was already "in love with it." When the two then sang Michelle's singles "Idiot" and "Not deserved" on stage, the two's incredible intimacy and harmony were clear.
They sang hand in hand at times, and he took her in his arms a few times. Eric gave Michelle a bunch of red roses at the end of the trip. Michelle came to Saarland on her one day off in April to sing alongside him as a surprise guest at Eric's show. According to the daily newspaper, the two also spent their leisure time together after that.
Philippi, who has been playing piano and trumpet since the age of eight, composes his own music. Saarland, in his own words, will "never leave his heart." Saarland represents family and friends, safety and tranquility." Philippi is presently involved in a long-distance relationship with Michelle, who resides in the vicinity of Cologne.
Michelle took her time this time before committing to a new boyfriend. Karsten Walter (30), a 21-year-old "Feuerherz" singer, was her final buddy till 2018. The romance lasted barely three months. Michelle met him during a Silbereisen performance as well.
