Lena Meyer-Landrut ends her media absence
Lena Meyer-Landrut, the German singer-songwriter and Eurovision winner, has made a comeback to the public eye after a year-long hiatus, causing a stir among her fans. The sudden change in her online activity has been met with curiosity and excitement, as the reasons for her retreat remain unclear.
Since last summer, Lena has remained silent on social media, a stark contrast to her previous close connection with fans. This silence was broken in early August 2025, when she liked her husband Mark Forster's Instagram post about his new single, Zeitmaschine, set to be released on August 15.
The cancellation of Lena's tour, titled Loyal to myself, was due to health issues that required multiple hospital visits. The specific nature of these health problems, however, has not been disclosed. Lena's last Instagram post from a year ago appeared optimistic about her tour, further adding to the mystery surrounding her retreat.
Despite the lack of official statements, fans of Lena and Mark, affectionately known as 'Lenark', are excited about the potential involvement of Lena in Mark's musical project. This speculation is fueled by Lena's continued silence on social media.
It's worth noting that Lena openly discussed her battle with depression in her YouTube documentary series. Alongside physical ailments, she battled depression, a struggle metaphorically depicted in her single Loyal to myself, with its music video depicting a car crash.
Prior to her retreat, Lena was known for her close connection with fans. The sudden change was difficult for many of her followers, as seen in the numerous comments under her last Instagram post.
For the latest detailed news, direct statements from Lena’s official social media or management channels might be the best current sources. Such delicate updates often come first from the artist themselves.
