Nadja Abd el Farrag is reported to have received a burial.
Nadja Abd el Farrag, affectionately known as "Naddel," bid adieu to the world on May 9, at the age of 60. Amidst the deluge of headlines, her funeral took place away from the media limelight,knitting a quiet farewell to the singer.
Hamburg, her birthplace and the city where she breathed her last, is believed to be her final resting place according to a report by Bild newspaper. Reportedly, she was laid to rest in the ohlsdorf cemetery in a small, private gathering, away from the media frenzy that ensued following her demise.
Her mother Ute and her sister Tamara, alongside her loyal Golden Retriever companion Lilly, were among those in attendance at the somber affair.
A Dream Unfurl: Private Happiness and Family
Despite a life marked by turbulence, Nadja Abd el Farrag, according to former manager and friend Marion Ellendorf, cherished the dream of private happiness and even a family [1]. This revelation was made during an RTL interview shortly after her demise. "A partner, a child, a reasonable relationship - that was always her heart's desire," Ellendorf stated.
Just a few weeks before her passing, she celebrated her 60th birthday on March 5. Her health and financial struggles had been a constant theme in recent years, throwing her off track more often than not.
A Life Tossed by Highs and Lows
In her 2018 autobiography "Achterbahn," Nadja Abd el Farrag relayed that she struggled with liver cirrhosis, primarily due to the medication she was prescribed for her ADHD [2][3]. In a 2015 talk show, she candidly discussed her struggle with alcoholism, "I was a binge drinker and would drink two or three glasses of white wine several evenings a week, never hard stuff. That was enough to get me pleasantly drunk. I’d also drink during the day if I felt like it, but never more than two glasses of champagne or wine." Despite her liver troubles, she allegedly refused to part ways with alcohol until the end [2][3].
It wasn't solely her liver problems that left her grappling with health issues, but also her alcohol addiction played a significant role, contributing to financial difficulties and negative public attention [2][3].
