From "Playboy" to Marriage: Mariella Ahrens' Newfound Bliss
Mariella Ahrens is reportedly overjoyed
In a sudden twist of events, German actress Mariella Ahrens, once gracing the pages of "Playboy," finds herself in a blissful relationship. Her new beau, entrepreneur Marco van Dré, cherishes the privacy of their bond, yet openly shares his intention to marry her.
An enchanting encounter unfolded a year ago in a bustling Cologne bar, where the two met for the first time. For van Dré, it was "Verliebtsein auf den ersten Blick" (love at first sight), an instantaneous connection that led him to approach her. Ahrens, known for her role on "Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten," shares the same sentiment. The rest of that night, they were lost in conversation, oblivious to the world around them.
In a recent interview with "Bunte" magazine, van Dré gushes over Ahrens, calling her his "absolute dream woman." For the actress, who had been single for approximately four years prior, the search for a companion "who fits me, with whom I can grow old, who is there for each other" seemed like a distant dream. Yet, she insists that love can surprise us at any moment. Ahrens is living proof of that.
Mariella Ahrens: A Love Journey
Ahrens' romantic past has been the subject of public scrutiny on numerous occasions. Her oldest daughter, Isabella (26) emerged from a relationship with Croatian entrepreneur Dragan Banic. She tied the knot with investment banker Jost Paffrath in 2001, but they divorced a year later, finalizing the separation in 2004. Two years after her first divorce, Ahrens married Patrick Graf von Faber-Castell, who later adopted Isabella. The couple also shares a daughter, Lucia (18). The pair announced their separation in 2012, and the divorce was officially finalized in 2015.
Ahrens made headlines after participating in the first season of "Ich bin ein Star - Holt mich hier raus!" in 2004 and posing for "Playboy" three times, her last appearance being in March of this year.
On the other hand, van Dré hails from Hamburg and has resided near Düsseldorf in recent years. The entrepreneur, who is dedicated to volunteer work, notably founded the animal protection organization Veto. His marital history remains unrevealed in recent interviews or reliable media reports, leaving Van Dré's marital status a mystery.
