Overview
- Elvers made the disclosure on Monday during the SAT.1 and Joyn reality show Villa der Versuchung, describing a past financial collapse she says reached “millions.”
- She said the collapse began after delegating her money to others and making moves from Spain to Germany, after which the tax office demanded back payments and raised advance taxes.
- Elvers said she sold almost all her material possessions to pay debts, though the figures and detailed causes are reported from her on‑air account and have not been independently verified by the media.
- She credited her 25‑year‑old son Paul with major emotional and practical support, including offering financial advice during her recovery.
- The episode also featured newcomer Dolly Buster bringing €50,000 into the villa and contestants spending €48,740 in one day, leaving the show’s prize pool at €124,160 and triggering conflict among participants.
