"I struggled with my body image for so long," Cathy Hummels admitted.

Cathy was the better half of German World Cup winner Mats Hummels throughout the legendary defender's glory days. She stood beside her man as he conquered the world in 2014 on his way to becoming a Bundesliga legend.

However, after their love fizzled out, they separated in 2022. "I'm divorced, I'm more or less a single parent. It's not like this was my dream at 25," she admitted on the Krause Kommt.

After going their separate ways, Cathy took the bold decision to pose in Playboy: "I do whatever I want. I've never really embraced my body. I'm 35 years old and only now can I say: I like myself.

"I would have liked to feel this body earlier. I had a boob job because I didn't feel like a woman.

Cathy has carved herself a career as a TV presenter - and she tops off her income with work on social media. The stunner has over 690,000 followers on Instagram, where she wows fans with saucy snaps.

While her comments might suggest she's promiscuous in nature, however, Cathy went on to note she's reserved when it comes to conquests.

"I can count them with one hand," came her reply when pressed about her 'body count' (number of sexual partners). "I don't open my castle to anyone. To me, this is a very private matter."

Cathy hasn't given up on love and when out at Oktoberfest she confirmed she's on the lookout for a new man: "Yes, I'm out for fresh meat. Online dating doesn't do it for me," said the beautiful model. "I usually don't approach guys in a proactive way. But maybe I should start doing so?"
