It’s the same game year after year: When “The Summer House of the Stars” starts, fans wonder which couples will survive the tough horror vacation unscathed – and who will be struck by the summer house curse and split up. A celebrity lady promptly clarified the situation on Instagram – she announced her split before the show even started. All the information is available here.

Who are Sarah Kern and Tobias Pankow?

Sarah Kern is no stranger to the gossip press and on TV. As a young woman, the German-Danish woman started out as a model and married fashion designer Otto Kern (who died in 2017). With her next husband, Kern then founded her own fashion collection – since then she has worked as a designer. However, she really became famous through her appearances on TV and in Playboy. After Jungle Camp and Co., she can be seen this year in the Summer House of the Stars – together with Tobias Pankow (39). The successful management consultant is a newcomer to TV – but unfortunately he will no longer be able to hope for Sarah Kern’s star power in the future – the couple separated.

Sarah Kern announces separation: This is why her summer house relationship failed

Tobias Pankow and Sarah Kern will still be seen together in the summer house, but after the show the relationship fell apart, Kern said on Instagram. But she gives the all-clear and says that there will be no bad blood between the separated ex-partners. After the summer house the two had already taken a break from their relationship. “After we had already separated, after the summer house, Tobi visited me again”admits Kern – but the relationship could no longer be saved.

The reason for the separation: there was simply too much distance between the two men. Kern commutes between Malta and Cyprus, while Pankow works in Berlin. The couple saw each other far too rarely, says Kern: “I’m not in Germany, I’m reinventing myself, that’s why we don’t see each other.” She also admits that she has difficulties living with a man – she would even categorically rule it out. The end of the relationship? So it was only a matter of time.
