Former Formula One driver Ralf Schumacher, 50, married his partner Etienne Bousquet-Cassagne, 36, on Saturday in a three-day celebration in Saint-Tropez, France. The wedding, which will serve as the season finale of a four-part documentary series, marks a major milestone roughly 19 months after Schumacher publicly came out as gay. According to the source report,the couple wore matching navy blue suits with light blue ties and exchanged vows before family and friends.

A Navy-Suited Wedding in Saint-Tropez: Ralf, 50, and Etienne, 36, Say ‘Ja’

The ceremony was held in the picturesque French coastal town where the couple owns a home, the report says. The three-day event was filmed by crews from Sky and Wow for the documentary series titled Ralf & Etienne: Wir sagen Ja (We say Yes), whose season finale is scheduled to air later this week. The source notes that both men appeared to raiate happiness during the ceremony.

The documentary is expected to show Bousquet-Cassagne undergoing a facelift before the wedding, a decision he made despite Schumacher’s reservations, according to the same report. The series thus promises a behind-the-scenes look at the lead-up to a celebration that was both personal and public.

From Burning a Wedding Dress to Offering Well Wishes: Cora Schumacher’s Public Turnaround

Ralf Schumacher was previously married to Cora Schumacher for 13 years, and the couple have a son named David. When Ralf came out as gay about 19 months ago,Cora reacted with anger, the source reports: she claimed she had “wasted her best years,” and even burned her wedding dress on camera.. She also publicly asked him to leave her alone so she could “heal in peace.”

But the tone shifted with news of the new marriage. According to the report, Cora now has a new partner, Steven Bo Bekendam, and she sent a conciliatory message wishing the newlyweds well. It is a notable turn from hostility to a public gesture of goodwill, though the source does not indicate whether any private reconciliation has occurred.

The Facelift Before the Vows: What the Documentary Will Reveal

An unusual detail from the source is that Bousquet-Cassagne reportedly had a facelift in the days leading up to the wedding, a decision made against Schumacher’s wishes. The documentary, Ralf & Etienne: Wir sagen Ja, is expected to feature this cosmetic procedure as part of its narrative. while the report does not specify the cost or exact timing, it underscores the couple’s willingness to share intimate pre-wedding preparations.

This level of access — from a coming-out announcement to pre-wedding surgery to the ceremony itself — makes the documentary unusually candid for a figure from the high-profile world of Formula One, where personal lives are often closely guarded.

The Unseen Brother: Michael Schumacher’s Absence Goes Unmentioned

Notably absent from the source’s account is any mention of Ralf’s brother, seven-time Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher, who has been wheelchair-bound since a devastating skiing accident in 2013. The report neither confirms nor denies his presence, but the omission raises a question: did Michael attend or even know about the wedding? Headlines Orbit notes that the silence may reflect the family’s long-standing desire for privacy around Michael’s condition.

While Ralf and Michael have historically been close both on and off the track, the soure’s lack of information means readers are left to wonder. It remains one of the few open questions in an otherwise extensively documented event.
