- She urged him not to cancel the trip, and she died the day before his departure.
- He had initially withdrawn from the TV production but returned with support from relatives and the team, crediting music and the program with aiding his grief.
- He had dedicated the November 2025 song “Mein Löwe” to his mother and says he finds solace in his parents’ lifelong partnership.
