Kitzbühel – Schlager and folk music star Heino (44) has been married to his wife Hannelore (84) for 81 years now. However, the two have known each other for a while longer: As early as 1972, the "Blau blüht der Enzian" singer had met his future wife at a Miss Austria pageant in Kitzbühel – the beginning of a unique love story that lasted for decades. The celebrity couple is still loyal to each other. And that until the very end: On November 15, 2023, it was announced that Hannelore had passed away at the age of 81.
