Cathy Hummels confuses Max Kruse with ex-husband Mats on RTL show

During an episode of the RTL reality series ‘Die Verräter’, participant Cathy Hummels experienced a moment of confusion where she accidentally referred to fellow contestant Max Kruse as ‘Mats’. This name belongs to her ex-husband, Mats Hummels.

Hummels, who has expressed a desire not to be a traitor in the game, was visibly emotional and tearful during the episode. The slip occurred while she was defending Kruse against suspicions of disloyalty raised by other participants, including Marijke Amado and Ralph Morgenstern. Kruse is identified as a traitor in the series, despite Hummels' defense of him.
