Lilly Becker has recently made headlines with her candid revelations during her appearance on the reality show Dschungelcamp, shedding light on her tumultuous past with ex-husband Boris Becker and addressing the persistent myths surrounding her financial situation.
On January 24, 2025, the latest season of Dschungelcamp began, featuring Lilly Becker, among others, from various backgrounds. The show has certainly turned up the drama, particularly with Lilly's discussions about her previous life. During one notable moment, Lilly spoke openly with fellow contestant Maurice Dziwak, who asked whether Boris was still supporting her financially.
“He hasn’t paid me anything for the last seven years. He pays nothing except for our child's school,” Lilly explained, clearly frustrated by the misconceptions about her reliance on her ex-husband’s wealth. This particularly poignant statement sparked conversation among other contestants and viewers alike, many of whom perceived her as someone leading off Boris’s fortune. Instead, she emphasized her independence and hard work, stating, “People think I'm living off his money. That money has never been there.”
Lilly and Boris’s relationship began back in 2005 after meeting at a Pizzeria, where she recalls instant chemistry. “It was love at first date,” she reminisced, laughing as she described their initial brush with romance—He kissed her on the forehead, but she desired something more intimate and took the lead. This was the start of their passionate yet tumultuous union, which would last thirteen years, culminating in one child, Amadeus.
Despite the initial tenderness, their marriage was fraught with challenges. Discussing their time together, Lilly remarked, “When we were good, we were the best team.” Unfortunately, the pressures of Boris’s fame and public scrutiny wore down their bond. Lilly reflected on the chaos surrounding their lives, stating, “Everything was stressful. So if you’re in a relationship, it’s best to keep things private.”
While her memories of love and companionship were clear, so too was her reticence to dwell on Boris’s new partner since their separation. When questioned by Jörg Dahlmann about her feelings toward Boris’s new relationship, she was resolute, saying, “What matters is my son knows who his father is. I’m not interested in the woman at all.” It was both a protective statement about her son’s interests and a reaffirmation of her independence away from her ex-husband’s romantic entanglements, emphasizing her role as mom over any ex-wife intricacies.
Throughout her time on the show, Lilly Becker continues to evoke sympathy and curiosity from the audience, both for her struggles and her resilience. She stressed how her son Amadeus remains her main focus, wanting to provide him with stability and support, regardless of the dynamic with Boris. “It’s important to me,” she said, underscoring her commitment to co-parenting effectively.
The public interest intensified as her personal life unfolded on reality television, drawing viewers who are eager to see how she navigates her past and present. Notably, Lilly’s participation has reportedly garnered her the highest fee ever paid to anyone on Dschungelcamp—estimated at over 300,000 Euros. This financial windfall adds another layer of intrigue to her portrayal on the show.
Outside of Dschungelcamp, Lilly is currently embroiled in legal challenges, as she faces disputes over money reportedly owed to TV producer Pierre Uebelhack stemming from their alleged past relationship. These legal battles reflect the complexity of her current situation and the shadow Boris’s finances cast over her life. Even amid these challenges, Lilly continues to promote her entrepreneurial endeavors, utilizing her social media to share beauty routines and personal anecdotes touching her unique experiences.
Fans and viewers can only ponder how Lilly will fare as the Dschungelcamp adventure continues and what more she will reveal about her life with Boris Becker, her determination to succeed, and her unwavering commitment to her son. With the finale of Dschungelcamp approaching on February 9, all eyes are trained on the next twists and turns of Lilly’s remarkable yet challenging narrative.
