Boris Becker has spoken several times from London. But his fans are worried about the tennis idol and his face.
- Boris Becker spoke up from a taxi in London .
- Fans worry about his face (see May 23 update). He provides the reason himself via Instagram video.
- Even after that, it didn't really get any better.
Update from May 29, 2020: According to his taxi video (see update from May 23) Boris Becker spoke up from a park in London. With a plea for cycling! “I never thought that I could have so much fun cycling in the park. But it is so. That changed my life, ”he enthuses. His knees and health had improved. "Ride a bike several times a week, your life will be better."
What hasn't improved is his face. This looks even more burned than in the previous video. Despite all the enthusiasm for cycling, a trip to the park didn't make the unsightly sunburn any better. The fans don't care this time. Because there are not only comments on his enthusiasm for cycling, but also on his appearance: "So sweet" or "Looks really good," it says.

Boris Becker in London: fans worried about face - "look brutal"
Update from May 23, 2020: Boris Becker regularly addresses his fans via selfie videos via Instagram *. Most of the time, the 52-year-old is tiptop - worthy of an absolute tennis legend . But a few months after the "face gate" from Paris (see original article below) there are apparently some concerns again among some fans. Boris Becker has now posted a video that, according to the caption, was recorded in a taxi in London . Accordingly, he enjoys the ride in the "black cab", as he explains in English. "They know where to go and don't ask too many questions."
He adds a tip: "We need sun milk in London, believe me, it is so beautiful and almost hot that I burned my face on the terrace yesterday , hence the sunglasses."

If he had preferred to take the advice himself into account. "Too much sun , Boris?" Asks a fan. "Stay safe and apply sunscreen. Take care of your skin, ”says another. "Sunburn 1.0 in London", writes another follower and marks a friend. "You look brutal, " it also says. "What is this disease called?" One gets really angry. Absolutely inappropriate, if that's what Boris looks like. Especially since a sunburn is not wild - and not soooo pronounced here.

Others criticize that Boris Becker does not wear mouth-nose protection because of Corona *. "Where's your mask boom boom?" Writes one in capital letters. But most of the followers stand for the tennis idol despite sunburn and the absence of a mask. You haven't forgotten the tennis legend that usually hits the right note on Instagram *. Even if the face is cause for concern this time. A female fan seems to want to charm Boris Becker: "Would love to sunbathe on your terrace."
Mockery is currently also cashing in on Bastian Schweinsteiger for several Instagram * postings. Til Schweiger meanwhile is enjoying himself on Sylt. Like Dieter Bohlen.
Boris Becker: face in Paris photo shocked fans - "does not look normal"
Update from June 5, 2019: Final all-clear at Boris Becker! What was already shown in the photos after the strange selfie (see below) is now also manifested in his Instagram story: he looks normal again. You don't have to worry.
Although, maybe briefly. Because the weather in Paris makes Boris Becker really hard. On Tuesday, a storm swept across the French capital, where the tennis legend is currently used by experts at the French Open.

Right in the middle: Boris Becker. “In fact, the weather has changed a bit. I'm almost pulled off the balcony here. Strong winds over Roland Garros. Emergency situation in Paris, ”he roars into the camera with a loud storm noise.
He survived. The French Open too. New finding: Boris Becker also cuts a fine figure as a crisis reporter.
Boris Becker: The face in this photo shocked his fans - "It doesn't look normal"
Our article from May 30, 2019: Paris - Boris Becker's face still has Germany in mind. After all, the tennis idol is still very present long after his career - with positive and negative headlines. In this respect, it is of course immediately noticeable if the 51-year-old does not look as usual.
This is exactly what seems to be the case with a selfie now. Boris Becker used his stay in Paris, where the French Open is currently running and he works for Eurosport, to visit Notre-Dame. He apparently wanted to get an idea of the situation of the church, which was badly damaged by a fire a few weeks ago. "Sad moment," he writes on a selfie.

Boris Becker in front of Notre-Dame: face looks strange to many
But many look less at Notre-Dame in the background than at his face. It looks like he has blue eyes. And generally a strange color on the skin.
"What's wrong with your face, Boris? Did you climb through the chimney ?? ”a follower wonders. "What happened to your face boom boom boom. Looks like you've been rummaging in the ashes ”another. "Why are you black and blue, Boris, what happened? I hope you are well ”(NB:“ black and blue ”can be freely translated as“ green and blue ”). "Oh dear, what happened, hope Boris is fine, because I'm looking forward to Eurosport and him from Paris," writes another supporter. "What are the colors on the face? It doesn't look normal. "
Boris Becker in front of Notre-Dame: "Dark circles, oh dear!"
Others put it a little more cautiously. "Boris you look but done" or "dark circles, oh dear!"
Maybe in the end it was just the unfavorable light in front of Notre-Dame. In any case, Boris Becker has since posted some other photos, including in the Eurosport round or alongside Thomas Tuchel. And Germany's tennis legend looks fresh as ever. Phew!
