Positive news were shared by the Schumacher family. Michael and his wife, Corina, are in fact becoming grandparents. It is not the former F1 driver, Mick, who will be a father, but his sister, Gina is expecting a baby. She also revealed she will have a girl, with the baby expected to be born mid-April 2025.
Gina is the youngest daughter of seven-time Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher (55). The German, who has a successful career in equestrian, announced on Instagram that she will have a girl: 'Impatiently awaiting the arrival of our little girl,' Gina Schumacher shared. To that, 'future uncle' Mick responded with: "So excited", together with a heart emoji.
