Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht caused horror with a YouTube video on Thursday (February 15). In the approximately one-hour video, which has since been taken offline “for copyright reasons,” the former child star commented on the season opener of “These Ochsenknechts.” Not only did he shoot against his sister Cheyenne and her husband Nino, but he also described himself as the “involuntary father” of his daughter Snow. Now the 32-year-old is suddenly extremely remorseful on social media.
Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht apologizes after video scandal
The day after the publication of his controversial video, Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht seems to be slowly realizing what he has caused with his statements about his fatherhood. Not only his daughter’s mother, Yeliz Koc, was outraged by Jimi’s words, his fans are also increasingly distancing themselves from the former “Wilde Kerle” star. In a longer statement on Instagram, the 32-year-old addressed words of regret to his fans:
“I sincerely apologize for my inappropriate choice of words yesterday. My goal was to respond to the current episode and address the ongoing untruths in the show (…) And therefore I will no longer address the topic in the future, but will concentrate on other topics,” said Jimi Blue.
“The child’s well-being comes first”: Jimi Blue admits mistakes
The Ochsenknecht son also explains that he will continue to react to new episodes of the reality show “These Ochsenknechts”, in which he himself starred until the family dispute, but will leave out certain topics. “You are absolutely right and the well-being of the child comes first,” the statement continued. “I absolutely chose the wrong platform to talk about this. My goal was to express myself publicly and present my perspective without leaving anything out. However, I will defend myself or respond if falsehoods continue to be spread in the next episode. The reaction has now been changed (plus subtitles) and will be re-uploaded soon.”
