-
Her marriage to the cuddly singer Eros Ramazotti (58) also failed.

Today, nothing fits between the mother-daughter team. They are inseparable.
She beams, laughs, sings and jokes on stage. It is her positive way with which Michelle Hunziker (45) manages to captivate the audience. But in the second edition of her TV show “Michelle Impossible”, things got surprisingly emotional: her mother Ineke (78) remembered the time when her daughter was in the Italian sect “Warrior of Light” and revealed how this time was terribly stressful for her.
“Michelle was 23 and had been married to Eros for three years when she left the family for five years. A terrible time. She called me one morning and said there was no room for me in her life anymore.” A moment that is still painful today.
“I wanted to smack her face”
While Ineke reveals this sad chapter from the Hunzikers’ family life on stage, Michelle stands by, visibly affected. However, the sadness suddenly turns to anger: “I wanted to polish the face of the woman who had taken my daughter,” Mama Hunziker bursts out. Her son-in-law at the time, Eros Ramazotti (58), ultimately stopped her from doing ill-considered actions.
Michelle herself first talked regarding this dark phase of her life in her book “An Apparently Perfect Life” in 2017. The sect determined their entire life. The 45-year-old had to break off contact with her loved ones, give up large sums of her income and live celibately. The latter was one of the reasons why her marriage to Eros finally broke up.
fainting spell when seeing each other
Michelle Hunziker was in the clutches of the sects for five years until she had the strength to free herself. Ineke fondly remembers seeing her daughter once more at a theater performance. “As soon as she entered the stage, I fainted,” said the mom today. Michelle got the first call the next morning. Her daughter asked if she might come to breakfast. “It was wonderful. We spoke out and then never talked regarding it once more,” she concludes.
Today the mother-daughter team is inseparable. Talking regarding it together on stage took a lot of strength. Michelle clarifies: «It is very difficult for me to listen to my mother. No one wants to hear their mother’s pain, but we got over it and we love each other very much.”
