Investigated: Whether she perceived him as forsaking her? - Following the incident, was she left on her own?
In a surprising turn of events, German singer Pietro Lombardi and his partner, Laura Maria Rypa, have announced their separation. The announcement was made on Rypa's Instagram story on Sunday afternoon [1].
Lombardi, known for his successful music career, and Rypa, a popular television personality, have been together since 2018 and share two sons, born in January 2023 and August 2024. They also have a son, Alessio, born in 2015, from Lombardi's first marriage to singer Sarah Engels [2].
The couple had planned to move into a renovated house and get married in 2025 [4]. However, it seems that tensions arose in their relationship, with Rypa feeling neglected or unsupported, particularly during family and household responsibilities. Reports suggest that during a stressful period involving a family move, Rypa handled most of the work with the help of her brother, while Lombardi was perceived as hardly contributing [3].
The challenges of caring for their two young sons and three dogs reportedly compounded these feelings of frustration for Rypa [3]. While there is no direct quote from Rypa explicitly stating feelings of neglect or abandonment due to Lombardi’s work commitments, the described situation implies she experienced a lack of support from him in their shared life responsibilities [3].
The couple has asked for privacy regarding their decision and has not elaborated on personal emotional grievances, focusing instead on their children’s well-being [1][2]. Lombardi himself has not publicly commented on the breakup or the underlying reasons [1][3].
The couple has requested understanding from their fans and followers as they navigate this difficult time. No information about any plans for future children was provided.
