Waves of Misfortune
In a Bild article (Jul '22), Torsten openly discussed the emotional turmoil he faced following a contentious court ruling that awarded sole custody of his daughter Dominique to her mother. The news, coupled with his ongoing health issues, sent him into a "severe breakdown," leading to a potentially fatal hypoglycemic shock. Thankfully, Torsten was found in time and received treatment in an intensive care unit.
However, his hospital stay was marked by another shocking diagnosis. Surgeons detected a heart rhythm disorder, which raised questions about a potential genetic condition.
