Former Formula 1 driver Ralf Schumacher recently came out as gay, receiving widespread support. However, his ex-wife, Cora Schumacher, has expressed her hurt over this revelation. Speaking with German publication Spiegel, Cora shared her disappointment at not being informed prior to the public announcement, calling it “such a stab in the heart.” Cora revealed feeling unloved and distant during their marriage, especially after their son's birth. She described herself as feeling “like an old pair of sneakers.” Like many straight spouses whose partners come out, Cora hopes for Ralf's happiness. Her experience underscores the need for society to let people pursue love and happiness on their terms. #Queer Up Gay Culture
