Celebrity casserole in the winter sports resort of Kitzbühel. Franz Beckenbauer’s family invited people to a carp dinner. The “Emperor’s” daughter was also there – with special accompaniment.
The tradition of eating carp has existed in the Tyrolean ski resort of Kitzbühel for more than 30 years. One of the most famous residents of the celebrity mountain village in the Alps was always there: Franz Beckenbauer. On Sunday, however, the event took place for the first time without the late Beckenbauer. The “Football Emperor” died almost exactly a year earlier, on January 7, 2024.
This year’s carp dinner also became a kind of memorial event for Beckenbauer, who once initiated the jet set meeting. This time, in addition to the meat manufacturer Clemens Tönnies, the pharmaceutical billionaire Willi Beier, the former European hockey champion Stefan Blocher and Motel One founder Dieter Müller were also there.
Beckenbauer’s widow Heidi continued her late husband’s tradition and, as in previous years, invited celebrities to the posh Hotel Kitzhof on Epiphany. Her daughter Francesca and son Joel also came to the carp dinner, where two washed scales of the fish are wrapped in silver paper and handed out to the guests. It is said that anyone who carries the talisman in their wallet can be sure of luck and financial security in the current year.
As the “Bild” newspaper reports, luck had already knocked on Beckenbauer’s daughter Francesca. In the form of her new partner Karl, whom she presented to the public at the event. As the tabloid reports about the lovers, the two are said to be very happy. Francesca was born in 2003 and is the youngest of the “Emperor’s” five children. Apparently “Bild” has not yet found out anything about her boyfriend Karl.
