Can you forgive an affair?
Susan Sideropoulos currently has every reason to be happy with her ZDF show “That’s My Style”. The presenter and actress starts the second season of the styling format with enthusiasm – and in the exclusive RTL.de interview speaks surprisingly openly about her marriage, monogamy and why relationships are never “finished”.

“I'm very excited,” says Susan Sideropoulos about the new episodes of “That's My Style.” The fact that the format got another season is something special for her: “Of course it’s great when a format that was designed with a lot of love continues.” According to her, the dynamics on set in particular have changed: “A new stylist came on board – that brought a breath of fresh air.”
The presenter is relaxed about the fact that, despite her long RTL past, she is now also successful on ZDF. She told RTL.de: “I wouldn’t even say that you can still define it that way today.” Because of her many years at RTL, she will probably always remain a “RTL face” to some extent – “but now I am at home on almost all channels.”

In addition to her TV career, the 45-year-old is now devoting more time to her passion project: the joint relationship course “Love Next Level”, which she developed together with her husband Jakob. There they both talk openly about relationships, communication and even difficult topics such as jealousy or infidelities.
One sentence from Susan Sideropoulos in particular recently made headlines: “I don’t know whether monogamy is a lifelong concept that really works.” In the RTL interview she now classifies this statement in more detail! “For us, monogamy is a concept. My husband and I live monogamously,” she clarifies. At the same time, she doesn't want to tell anyone which relationship model is right.
“I’m not at the end of my life yet,” she explains. That's why she can't claim today that a concept automatically works forever. Openness is much more important: “There is no right or wrong. What is right is what works for two people who decide to go through life together.”

Recommendations from our partners
Susan and Jakob have chosen each other
She also deliberately does not evaluate so-called open relationships or “arranged cheating”. “I don’t recommend anything,” emphasizes Sideropoulos. Instead, she wants to give people the right questions to ask – and get them to honestly deal with their needs.
Susan was 15 when she met her husband
Despite all the deep relationship topics, Susan Sideropoulos seems one thing above all: relaxed. Maybe because she and her husband have learned to take differences more calmly after almost 30 years together. Even small holiday arguments don't seem to bother the two of them anymore. “After 30 years, we don’t go crazy on vacation anymore,” she says with a laugh.
