Oliver Pocher, the 47-year-old comedian and television personality, made headlines once again during his appearance at the popular dance show "Let’s Dance" on Friday, April 11, 2025. Although he did not take to the dance floor himself, Pocher's presence was felt as he watched Christine Neubauer, 62, perform a Paso Doble that he originally showcased in the 2019 season. This event marked a nostalgic return for Pocher, who reminisced about his time on the show, which was also significant for his relationship with ex-wife Amira Aly.
Pocher's connection to "Let’s Dance" dates back to 2019 when Amira, now 32, was his makeup artist and they publicly announced their relationship during the same season. The couple soon revealed that they were expecting their first child together. Fast forward six years, and the dynamics have shifted considerably. The couple separated in 2023, and Amira is now happily in a relationship with "taff" presenter Christian Düren, 34.
During his visit to the show, Pocher couldn't resist a playful jab at Amira, quipping, "Back then, Amira did my makeup, today she is in an unhappy relationship." This light-hearted dig reflects Pocher's ongoing ability to make humor out of personal situations, even as he navigates the complexities of their past relationship.
At the event, Pocher was in high spirits, reconnecting with old friends and colleagues, including Joachim Llambi, 60, Victoria Swarovski, 31, and Daniel Hartwich, 46. The atmosphere was filled with camaraderie as he exchanged hugs and shared laughs with familiar faces from the entertainment industry. Pocher's presence was marked by a sense of nostalgia, as he posted a photo from his time on the show six years prior, donning a memorable Queen costume.
Reflecting on his past experiences, Pocher noted how much had changed since his time on the show. He remarked, "Diego I’ve known for so long. The new category is 'child of a celebrity'; last year it was 'had a celebrity affair'—Marc Eggers managed that this year, and Biyon did it last year. Now it’s 'child of'..." He then humorously added, "I’m counting on my kids, I have five, so the next seasons of 'Let’s Dance' are already planned—first, I’ll give them a sexy photo shoot for their 18th birthday."
Pocher's comments about his children hint at his desire to keep the legacy of his family in the public eye, all while maintaining a light-hearted approach to fame and relationships. His playful banter is indicative of his personality, which has made him a beloved figure in German entertainment.
Meanwhile, Amira has been moving forward with her life post-separation. In a recent interview, she expressed her openness to the idea of a second wedding, stating, "Basically, I don’t rule that out; I’m only 32." This statement suggests that Amira is looking ahead and considering new possibilities for her future.
While Pocher's comments may have stirred some controversy, they also highlight the complicated nature of their past relationship. Despite the humor, there is an underlying acknowledgment of the changes both have undergone since their time together on "Let’s Dance." The show not only provided a platform for their romance to blossom but also for their eventual separation to unfold in the public eye.
As Pocher continues to navigate his career and personal life, his ability to find humor in difficult situations remains a defining characteristic. His return to "Let’s Dance" serves as a reminder of how much has changed in the past six years, both for him and for those around him.
In the world of entertainment, where relationships often play out in the spotlight, Pocher's journey is a testament to resilience and the capacity to find laughter amid life's challenges. Whether through playful jabs or heartfelt reflections, he continues to engage audiences with his unique blend of humor and honesty.
As the show progresses, it will be interesting to see if Pocher's children follow in his footsteps and make their own appearances on the dance floor in future seasons. Given his penchant for entertaining, it seems likely that he will be cheering them on from the sidelines, just as he did at the event last Friday.
Ultimately, Pocher's presence at "Let’s Dance" is not just about the dance; it’s about the stories, the relationships, and the humor that come with them. As he continues to evolve as a performer and a father, his journey remains one that resonates with many, reminding us all of the importance of laughter and connection in our lives.
