Following speculation about the divorce of Ana Ivanović and Bastian Schweinsteiger, the editor of the German newspaper Bild, Matthias Bieder, publicly criticized Schweinsteiger for his behavior. In a column, he emphasized that although he is not a football fan, he believes Schweinsteiger should be a hero to his children, providing them with security and love, rather than jeopardizing his marriage and family. German media had earlier reported on the divorce after nine years of marriage, and the public is shocked by the former footballer’s actions. The story gained additional attention due to public reactions and emotional messages from the Bild editor.
