Daniela Katzenberger has permanently decided against having more children.
Nine years ago, her daughter Sophia was born. Since then, Daniela Katzenberger has been frequently asked about having a second child. That is now a thing of the past.
Daniela Katzenberger has been in the spotlight for 15 years, with TV cameras following her life. A television team was even present during the birth of her first child, having already accompanied Germany’s most famous blonde throughout her pregnancy.
Since the birth of her daughter Sophia in August 2015, Daniela Katzenberger has repeatedly been asked when the little girl could expect a sibling. In 2018, the 37-year-old mentioned that she and her husband, pop singer Lucas Cordalis, were working on having a second child.
“If it doesn’t happen next year, then we’ll let it go,” she said in an interview with “RTL Exclusiv” at the time. “Not because I’m getting too old, but because Lucas will turn 51 this year. So, he’s still fit, and everything’s working fine, but I also want the child to have as much time as possible with their dad.”
“It’s over for me”
That was six years ago. Lucas Cordalis is now 57 years old. While having a child naturally at this age is not impossible, the couple has decided against having more children. “A second child? It’s over for me,” the 37-year-old recently told the magazine “Neue Post” and revealed, “I’m sterilized. It’s been two years now. And apart from that, I’m turning 38 soon.”
“I have a wonderful daughter, and Sophia is the most important thing to me. I’ve always said that I’m looking forward to menopause. But at some point, I asked myself why I should wait for it.” And so, Daniela Katzenberger decided two years ago to undergo a medical procedure that ensures she won’t become a mother for a second time.
“A traumatic experience at the gynecologist”
The trigger for her sterilization was “a traumatic experience at the gynecologist, who told me that I had many cysts in my breast,” Daniela Katzenberger told “Bild.” “That scared me a bit because something malignant could develop from that. The doctor then told me that the pill could promote something like that due to the hormones. He recommended that I consider another method of contraception.”
The spiral was not an option for her, and she didn’t want to be surprised by another pregnancy, so she made the decision two years ago. “I don’t regret the sterilization, and I hope I never will. It gives me incredible peace of mind not to have to worry about contraception anymore. There’s no need to take anything, insert anything, or put anything on. It’s all behind me now.”
