Splitsville for Lehmann After 25 Years: The Infamous Goalkeeper's Marriage Ends
Lehmann woman, Mrs. von Jens, discloses her matrimonial union.
It's no longer the fairytale it once was for Jens Lehmann and his wife, Conny. After two decades of marriage, Conny announced their separation in a candid interview with Bild. "I'm single," she declared at a hotel event in Munich. " I'm a content single," she added, flanked by her best friend, presenter Annemarie Carpendale.
This power couple, married since 1999, welcomed a new addition to their family in 1999 when Conny brought her son, Lasse, into the relationship. Lasse, now a footballer himself, was born from Conny's previous relationship with football colleague Knut Reinhardt. Jens later adopted Lasse. In 2000, their son Mats was born, following by their daughter Lieselotte in 2006.
The headlines haven't been kind to Lehmann lately. Recently, he was fined €1,000 for drunk driving after leaving the Wiesn, a Munich festival, with a blood alcohol content of over 0.7%. His behavior during the arrest, described as "provocative, aggressive, talkative, intrusive, and dismissive," also landed him in hot water[6].
But this isn't Lehmann's first run-in with the law. Last year, he was convicted for property damage with a chainsaw on a neighboring property and sentenced to a fine[7].
Living in the limelight, Lehmann's personal life often takes a backseat to his impressive football career. A goalkeeper for several prestigious clubs, including Schalke 04, AC Milan, Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal, and VfB Stuttgart, Lehmann's achievements include being part of Arsenal's "Invincibles" team and playing in the German national team during the 2006 World Cup and the 2008 European Championship[1][2][5].
Despite his controversies and off-field antics, Lehmann remains a household name in the world of football.
