Michael Schumacher ‘doubt’ raised about public appearance as F1 legend’s method of communication revealed

Guests at the wedding were supposedly forced to hand over their phones in a bid to protect Schumacher’s privacy.

No pictures have been leaked of the event with Gina Schumacher posting one single photo from her wedding to Iain Bethke.

The suggestion that Schumacher was present for his daughter’s wedding led to hope from some of his die-hard fans that the wall of privacy around his condition was coming down.

The sporting icon has remained hidden away from the public eye since his horrific skiing crash in 2013.

Only a select few people outside of the Schumacher family have been allowed access to visit him at his heavily-guarded home in Switzerland.

Herbert, who was Schumacher’s team-mate for his first two F1 world titles with Benetton, has not seen the German racing superstar and isn’t privy to inside knowledge about his current condition.

Like other F1 fans, Herbert only knows what is reported on in the media and, the longer time goes on, he fears Schumacher may never be seen in public again.

“I can’t comment because I really don’t know about the situation. No one does,” Herbert told CasinoHawks.

“It sounds better. But is he able to enjoy that moment? I don’t know but let’s hope so.

“It would be wonderful if we did start seeing him but the longer it goes on and we don’t, there’s always that doubt.”
