This story not only moves Anna-Maria Ferchichi (41) and her husband Anis (44, Bushido) to tears…
The fact that the extended family is very aggressive with their private life is probably due to the overall situation surrounding the year-long court case with Bushido’s ex-manager and mentor, Arafat Abou-Chaker (44).
While other celebrities protect their children from the public, Anna-Maria and the successful black horse often show them both in the RTL + documentaries that have been published so far and on their social media channels. Now the couple is revealing a well-kept family secret: “One of our children is damaged …” they say in the latest episode “In bed with Anna-Maria and Anis Ferchichi – The Bushido Podcast”.
Anna-Maria’s voice breaks as she greets her. So far, neither she nor her husband have talked about it publicly: “It’s a very difficult topic, it’s a side issue. I don’t talk about it on Instagram either. There are things that just don’t belong there,” says the mother of eight children.
The 41-year-old is clearer: It’s about one of her children. Bushido explains: “It’s about our daughter Laila. She was born in 2013 and is Djibbi’s twin sister (also 10). “What the parents didn’t realize until late: Laila is highly sensitive.
It’s not that they haven’t noticed that the girl has been particularly “nice” in the past and always backed down to the slightest argument. But that wasn’t all: The sensitivity resulted in anxiety and during an argument Laila became so hysterical that she almost had a nervous breakdown.
For weeks, Bushido and his wife Anna-Maria recorded their personal podcast in their bed in their home in Dubai – hence the title
In the end, the couple sought professional help from a therapist. Together with her, everyone worked on the girl’s high sensitivity and strengthened it. But not only little Laila could be helped by the therapy. Mother Anna-Maria recently wrote in her Instagram story that she was given “a completely different perspective on her own behavior”.
The 41-year-old will never forget one sentence again: “You encourage your children’s self-confidence when you praise their failures.” Meanwhile, Laila no longer put up with everything and sometimes vigorously represents her point of view in front of parents and siblings. Bravo that the 10-year-old could be helped in time.
