Michael Schumacher’s wife is hiding the truth about the F1 legend’s condition, star’s ex-manager claims – The Sun

MICHAEL Schumacher's wife is hiding the truth about his condition, the F1 legend's ex-manager has claimed.

The seven-time world champion has not been seen since his near-fatal brain injury in 2013 in France, where he hit his head on a rock while skiing.

Since 2014 he has been cared for at his Lake Geneva home by Corinna, 50, and children Gina-Marie, 22, and Mick, 20.

But the star's former manager Willi Weber told a German documentary he has been  BANNED from seeing him as Corinna is worried the "truth" will be exposed.

He said: "I know that Michael has been hit hard, but unfortunately I do not know what progress he makes.

"I’d like to know how he’s doing and shake hands or stroke his face.

She’s probably afraid that I’ll see right away what’s going on and make the truth public

"But unfortunately, this is rejected by Corinna. She’s probably afraid that I’ll see right away what’s going on and make the truth public.

"I firmly believe in Michael’s recovery, because I know he is a fighter.

"If there is a chance, he will use it. That cannot be the end. I pray for him and am convinced that we will see him again."

It comes after Corinna paid tribute to her husband and thanked him for "doing everything" for her and their kids.

She told the magazine: "When I was 30, I very much wanted to have a horse and Michael went with me to Dubai, where I intended to buy an Arabian horse.

"He did everything for me. I will never forget who I have to thank. That would be my husband Michael."

It is almost six years since Schumacher suffered severe head injuries in a low-speed fall while skiing with his son, Mick, on the Combe de Saulire above Méribel, and he's not been seen in public since.

Schumacher spent three months in a medically-induced coma after the accident and has had years of intensive care at his house in Gland, a Swiss town on the shore of Lake Geneva.

His condition now appears to have stabilised and in January this year he was taken by helicopter to the family's holiday home in Mallorca for his 50th birthday.

In September he was taken to the Georges-Pompidou in Paris in September, the third time he's been treated there this year, where he had stem cell transfusion to reduce inflammation.

The German seven-time F1 world champion was treated there by French stem cell specialist Prof Philippe Menasché.

Le Parisien said an employee in the cardiology department had told a colleague: "Yes, he is in my department. And I can assure you he is conscious."
