Michael Schumacher and wife Corrina celebrate 27th wedding anniversary

Michael Schumacher and wife Corrina are celebrating their 27th wedding anniversary after the pair tied the knot in 1995.

The pair have two kids together but their relationship remains very private every since Schumacher's skiing accident back in 2013.

The seven-time Formula 1 World Champion suffered a serious brain injury nearly nine years ago and has withdrawn from the public eye since.

Health updates for Schumacher have been few and far between as Corrina and her family have been private about Michael's condition since the accident.

But in a rare update, wife Corrina broke down in tears last month while accepting a prestigious award in Germany on his behalf.

She broke down in tears while attending an emotional ceremony on July 20, where Schumacher was awarded the State Prize of North Rhine-Westphalia.

Corinna and daughter Gina-Maria accepted the award on Schumacher's behalf. His son Mick, who is currently competing in F1 with Haas, was absent due to illness, Mirror UK reports.

The prestigious prize was awarded to Schumacher in recognition of his achievements, with Corinna left in tears on stage.

"I miss Michael every day. But it's not just me who misses him. It's the children, the family, his father, everyone around him. I mean, everybody misses Michael, but Michael is here. Different, but he's here and that gives us strength, I find," she said previously.
