Herzblatt Stories: You drink your marriage nicely

Nowhere else in the world can you find more ideal children than on the covers of gossip magazines.

Queens, princesses, singers, they all get pregnant every week because the writers want it that way, because they believe that their readers want it that way.

The idea that women could devote themselves to other things than smiling representatively and constantly giving birth to children on the side does not yet seem too widespread in these circles.

There are no limits to reproductive journalism.

Even a Letizia from Spain at 49 years of age has not just one child, but two at the same time, because - as a mostly nameless, i.e. invented doctor explains - the chance of multiple births increases with age.

We have long been able to say something like this.

You shouldn't be fooled by the fact that Letizia is slim and slim, because in the first weeks of her pregnancy, we are also allowed to read that again and again, women often lose weight too.

The better rate

The fact that only very few of all the announced children are born in the end shows the - let's call it: frugality of the gossip book readership. We estimate the ratio of reported to actually born princess babies to be 10,000 to 1, at least. Matthias Reim has a far better quota: The pop singer gets, as the specialist press meticulously recorded, his seventh child from the sixth wife. Like

reports, Reim is enjoying his wife's pregnancy: 'Christian is sleeping more than before. I sit next to it with a beer - and I'm happy. '”For a man of almost 64 years, it's also nice when the 32-year-old wife is not so hippy for a while. But watch out: when the youngsters are born, the leisurely beer drinking will come to an end for the time being.

In general, many couples might get along better if the partner were less awake.

According to

Charles and Camilla,

another husband model for “a peaceful coexistence” is

exemplified: They “have found a way to make their relationship more bearable.

They drink their marriage simply beautiful "Also this story is logically complete thought, but even once in a very nice way"., Cheers, Duchess Promilla 'Charles laughs in front of the crackling fireplace "Although the Englishman held thousandth say.

, With which you can not make a silly play on words, but free: We wish Prince Cheers and Duchess Campari continued happy Picheln.

Overjoyed in the private jet

His colleague Prince Albert of Monaco has meanwhile taken his six-year-old twins to Glasgow. “On Sunday, Gabriella and Jacques were overjoyed when they boarded the private jet and traveled with him to the climate summit,” writes

, quoting the prince as saying that “he believes that their participation in the trip is of great value”. And it is definitely an unforgettable experience for the little ones not only to find out about climate change so early, but also to be able to actively contribute to it.

Carsten Maschmeyer was allowed to celebrate his son's wedding - and it is not very nice of

to write next to the picture of Maschmeyer, who is standing with disheveled hair in front of the Hanover town hall: “Windy, but happy.” So very clearly it is not because whether the "windy" here refers to the weather or at least to the businessman personally.

We were also misled by a headline in the

newspaper: "Vaccination chaos at Fritz Wepper - 'Mommy was turned away'". At first we were happy that Wepper, 80, and apparently his mother too, have such good genes. But then we read that the woman who was a few days early for her third vaccination and whom Fritz Wepper calls “Mami” is his 77-year-old mother-in-law. We wish Mommy and also the son-in-law that it works with the booster next time.

Ken Follett annoyed his real mommy with his first novel: She immediately put the book down, “because there was a swear word on the first page. My mother was very conservative, ”he tells

. She only began to read again when he brought out his books “collectively in an abridged version. All bad words and all forms of sex were crossed out. ”Violence and a few murders every now and then, on the other hand, did not seem to bother the mother.

Moderator Andrea Kiewel, informs us about

, not only sorts her clothes by color, but also her “books by topic” - a suggestion that we immediately followed.

We just couldn't decide for a long time whether Marcel Proust's “Search for Lost Time” would thematically fit better on the shelf “Subjectivity of the Experience of Reality” or in “Critical Consideration of the Upper French Society of the Fin de Siècle”.

In the end we put it next to "We learn the clock with the brownies".
