Ralf Schumacher, Formula One driver and brother of Michael Schumacher, has come out as gay on Instagram.

The brother of the seven-time F1 champion took to Instagram on Sunday, June 14 to post a picture of himself and another man standing arm-in-arm on a boat.

The caption on the image read: ‘The most beautiful thing in life is when you have the right partner by your side with whom you can share everything.’

 

Ralf’s close friend and German actress Carmen Geiss replied to his social media post, writing: ‘I LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH.

‘Always liberal, a good-hearted person who I can call day and night and above all has always been honest with me in his position.

‘I am happy that I got to be a part of this love and even more happy for the two who searched and found each other, because I also love Étienne deeply.’
