Ralf Schumacher, the 50-year-old former Formula One driver, married Etienne Bousquet-Cassagne in Saint-Tropez over a weekend in a three-day celebration. The wedding came months after Schumacher came out as gay in July 2024, and was marked by his ex-wife Cora Schumacher's thinly veileed coment about his sexuality, according to the report. The couple's relationship has been documented in a fly-on-the-wall documentary produced by Sky Germany.

Ralf Schumacher's three-day Saint-Tropez wedding

According to the source, the wedding took place at a prestigious yacht club on the Cote d'Azur and lasted for three days. The couple changed into white tee-shirts and blue shorts for a garden party , where they were pictured jumping into a pool, kissing, and clinking glasses of champagne. The festivities also included a speedboat ride through the Gulf of Saint-Tropez on a vessel previously owned by Elton John, as the report notes.

Cora Schumacher's 'wasted years' remark and burned wedding dress

Ralf's ex-wife Cora, whom he married in a church ceremony in 2001 when he was 27, made a thinly veiled comment about his sexuality in her congratulatory message. The source states that Cora had previously reacted angrily to Ralf's coming out, claiming she had 'wasted her best years' on him, even burning her wedding dress in a pubblic display of hurt. The exact nature of her recent comment remains unclear, but the report indicates that she now appears to have moved on, having ended her own relationship with Steven Bo Bekendam after congratulating the couple.

The documentary that captured Botox treatments and the couple's first dance

Sky Germany's cameras followed Ralf and Etienne for several months, capturing their journey to the altar. The documentary showed the pair receiving Botox treatment ahead of their big day, as well as their first dance dressed in all white and cutting into a gigantic wedding cake lit with sparklers, flanked by two towers of macarons. According to the report, the couple's son David, Ralf's son from his marriage to Cora, served as his father's best man.

Michael Schumacher's absence and the family's closely guarded secret

Brother Michael, the seven-time world champion, did not appear at the wedding. The source notes that Michael has been wheelchair-bound since a horrifying skiing crash in 2013, and the exact nature of his current condition is kept as a closely guarded secret by family and friends. Ralf, who won six races in his own Formula One career driving for Jordan, Williams, and Toyota, has always lived in the shadow of his more famous sibling. The unanswered question remains whether Michael's condition precluded attendance or if family dynamics played a role, but the report does not clarify.
