Hey there! Let's talk about Katy Karrenbauer's emotional farewell to her father, Dieter, on Facebook. The actress, known for her roles in "Behind Bars" among others, recently opened up about this heartfelt moment with RTL.de.

In mid-May 2025, Dieter, aged 93, bid his final adieu. He had been dealing with dementia, but it didn't stop him from setting a goal – celebrating his 93rd birthday on May 12th with his close ones, including his daughter, Katy. Witness scenes of this special day in a touching Facebook post, where her father sings to an old favorite tune.

A week before his passing, Dieter asked Katy, "I have to go, Katy, are you okay with that?" Moved by her father's request, she reassured him, "Yes, I am, Papa, I'm okay with that."

As the early hours of May 23rd approached, Katy Karrenbauer was by her father's side throughout, ensuring he wouldn't spend his last moments hooked up to life-support machines, as he wished.

Katy reconnected with her father in 2018 after 50 years apart. Her parents had separated when she was a child. In 2011, her father's former partner reached out to her before passing away from cancer. Karrenbauer brought him from Duisburg to live with her in Berlin. She wrote a book titled "I Wanted a Dog - Now I Have a Father" about her time with her dementia-stricken father.
