“Bauer sucht-Frau” star and Mallorca entertainer Schäfer Heinrich is scheduled to take part in an RTL2 show in 2022.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of reasons for this.

With his participation in the TV show "Bauer sucht Frau" from RTL*, Schäfer Heinrich landed a big hit in 2008 in the 4th season of the popular show with moderator Inka Bause*. Although he couldn't find love, he did find success and a completely new calling as an entertainer. According to reports from

*, his 'Altes Schäferlied' became

a huge hit - reaching number six in the German single charts. What follows is a career as a singer and entertainer in Germany and Mallorca.

After his participation in the 4th season of "Bauer sucht Frau" it went steeply uphill for Schäfer Heinrich - but in 2020 and 2021 he missed a damper - keywords corona virus, flood disaster and S ** lull.

Like many artists, Schäfer Heinrich is also struggling with the pandemic.

The reason: With lockdown, social distancing etiquette and canceled events, live performances by the shepherd from “Bauer sucht Frau” were history for the time being – a situation that is still ongoing throughout Europe.

For shepherd Heinrich, however, a particular burden because his farm in North Rhine-Westphalia hardly ever generates any income and with all his performances - which are no longer available - there is no money for important repairs.

His manager recently said on TV that the farm in NRW was more of a hobby for Shepherd Heinrich and that his work as an entertainer was his main job.

A whole lot of problems for the farmer to deal with.

And then there are two other construction sites that Heinrich can only influence to a limited extent.

According to reports from the

– unlike in “Bauer sucht Frau” – there is no love in the air.

Specifically, there is an 'S** doldrums': at the beginning of 2021, only 50 of Heinrich's around 300 ewes were pregnant - in 2020 simply too few ewes wanted to be mated by his six rams.

The result: Too few lambs were born - and Shepherd Heinrich messed up the Easter business.

"My sheep are not in the mood for S**," said the "Bauer sucht-Frau" star of the

To compensate for the loss of income, Heinrich went among the artists. With self-painted pictures - sheep motifs - and his previously unpublished biography ("Counting more than just sheep"), Schäfer Heinrich wants to embark on a new professional path after participating in the RTL * TV show "Bauer sucht Frau" and goes under copywriter With success? Uncertain! The fact is that he can use the money well. Because he was not spared from the flood disaster in North Rhine-Westphalia either.

In an interview with the

, Heinrich put the damage at 10,000 euros.

It is not surprising that the shepherd from the dome show "Bauer sucht Frau" is slowly but surely struggling to survive.

Shortly after the flood, he told

that he would soon be broke if things continued like this.

"I'm really afraid for my existence." Is it this fear that drives Heinrich back into the trash TV industry?

That's right, in the summer of 2022 Schäfer Heinrich should be seen in "Kampf der Realitystars"* on RTL2.

truth surprised

In January, the “Bauer sucht Frau” star was also seen on the TV show “Trödeltrupp” and sold unused items to potential buyers. The proceeds: 1,391 euros. Barely enough to maintain a large yard and at the same time repair the damage caused by the flood disaster in NRW 2021. And Schäfer Heinrich's fee from RTL2 for his work in the trash TV show "Kampf der Realitystars" also leaves a lot to be desired in comparison to other participants.

From a financial point of view, Heinrich is not doing too well.

One can only hope that performances in Germany, on the Ballermann and in live shows will soon be possible again and that the sheep will be more willing to mate again in 2022.

Perhaps appearing on TV in “Battle of the Reality Stars” will also help to fill Schäfer Heinrich’s coffers in the longer term.

The case of Narumol David, which was shown on the RTL2 show * in 2021, shows that increasing popularity is possible.
