Anna Heiser calls Germany ‘dirty’ after NRW visit

Former "Bauer sucht Frau" star Anna Heiser, who now lives in Poland, spent three days touring cities in North Rhine‑Westphalia. In an Instagram video she described the urban areas as “so dirty”, lamenting the loss of the clean streets, well‑kept gardens and tidy facades she remembered from her 2010 stay in Germany.

Heiser recalled that at the time Germany seemed “the definition of a super‑developed country”. She said she was not making a political statement, but urged respectful discussion, noting possible reasons such as labour shortages and reduced attention to public spaces. The post sparked mixed reactions, with some followers agreeing and others warning against generalising the whole country.

The story has been reported by several German media outlets, all citing the same Instagram video and Heiser’s comments.
