Michael Schumacher ‘Seen in Public for First Time in 11 Years’

It has been 11 long years since the world last caught a glimpse of the legendary Michael Schumacher, who became unconscious and lost in a skiing accident in 2013. He never again appeared in public since those tragic events, but that has now all changed. 

According to the latest reports, Schumacher may be seen in public for the very first time since his daughter Gina Schumacher got married in Spain's Mallorca. It was a memorable and emotional moment for the Schumacher family, who organized this event at its beautiful and luxurious villa.

This article is based on the skiing accident of Michael Schumacher, his health status, and rumors related to his coma.

Michael Schumacher had an accident on his skis in the French Alps in December 2013. The famous F1 champion suffered a major head injury and, for several months, remains in a medically induced coma. His health has since been kept within the private circle of his family. In fact, many fans and media were indeed asking, "Is Michael Schumacher still alive?" Of course, the answer to this question is in the affirmative, but the medical condition he is in would seem uncommunicable to everyone unless infrequent reports are made.

Since the accident, now 54 years old, Michael Schumacher has been staying in Switzerland under constant medical surveillance. The Schumacher family has been reluctant to come clean about his health, fuelling speculations. Former world champion Sebastian Vettel, a close acquaintance of the Schumacher family, revealed, "Michael is not doing well."

Hope of Revival: Michael Schumacher at his daughter's wedding

According to several reports, Michael Schumacher was seen at his daughter Gina's wedding. His first public appearance since his skiing accident occurred during this event. Although that was kept low-key, it is said that Schumacher attended the intimate family wedding, in the family's villa in Mallorca, to which only close guests were invited. Actually, some so-called measures have been taken in order to prevent the media from leaking any photos and videos from the event.

Though the German media, as BILD, can speculate upon speculations such as he might have attended the ceremony, if so, he would have stayed away from any public sectors. However, this is also a chance for such a public appearance, albeit limited time, that gives more hope and excitement amongst his fans.

Family Decides upon Decision to Protect Michael Schumacher's Privacy

One question that has haunted fans is, "Is Michael Schumacher still in a coma?  While Schumacher is no longer in a coma, details about the type of recovery he is having remain unknown. His lawyer, Felix Damm, said that the family kept him from sharing his complete health report with the public and so, in an effort to preserve his privacy, they have never published a full report, feeling a report would invite relentless media pressure to provide constant updates.

This stage of the family seems to be because they respect the private life so that Schumacher may be given some dignity in his recovery out of the public view. "We always wanted to protect his private life," Damm said, adding that the release of a report would be followed by more questions than answers, "what does it look like now?".

Legacy of Michael Schumacher

Despite this fatal accident, Michael Schumacher is still a giant figure in the world of motorsport. The magnitude of his achievements remains unmatched: seven F1 world championships as well as 91 Grand Prix wins. Schumacher last competed in F1 at the 2012 Brazilian Grand Prix when he retired in the most magnificent fashion that could have been wished before his accident last year.

The legacy of today is seen in the son of Schumacher-mick Schumacher, who has been racing just like his father in F1. He has often referred to his father as one of his main sources of inspiration.
