Becker, identified as Lilly, experiences courtroom defeat and is financially obligated to pay an amount of 218,000 euros.
In a recent court ruling, Lilly Becker, the 47-year-old winner of the 2024 RTL Jungle Camp, faced a legal defeat. The court found Becker's claim regarding a loan and additional funds from Pierre Uebelhack to be unsubstantiated.
The total amount in dispute, including the loan, additional funds, interest, and legal costs, is approximately €218,000. Becker claimed that these funds were voluntary gifts, but the court reached a different conclusion.
Judge Robert Engelmann stated that Becker's claim was refuted by contracts, the plaintiff's statement, and statements of three other witnesses. As a result, Becker now faces uncomfortable questions about her credibility due to the court's ruling.
The legal case has impacted Becker's career revival plans after winning the RTL Jungle Camp. The court did not grant any romantic bonus to Becker's former relationship in the case. If the ruling becomes legally binding, Becker could potentially lose more than half of her Jungle Camp winnings, approximately €200,000.
It is important to note that as of now, there is no publicly verified information about any current legal dispute involving a six-figure sum between Becker and Uebelhack. Details may not yet be available in reputable news sources if this is a recent development.
Becker did not appear in person for the verdict and will receive the verdict in writing through her lawyers. She has the option to appeal to the Higher Regional Court if she wishes to contest the ruling.
Without confirmed details, it is not possible to assess any specific consequences for Becker's career and public image. Legal disputes involving financial matters can potentially impact a public figure's reputation, depending on the nature and outcome of the case.
Stay tuned for updates as more information becomes available.
Despite the legal defeat, Lilly Becker might still have a means to recover financial losses, potentially through a rise in profit from her entertainment career.
