Ginger Costello-Wollersheim and Lukas Reiter win Sommerhaus der Stars 2026

Ginger Costello-Wollersheim and Lukas Reiter have emerged as the winners of the eleventh season of “Sommerhaus der Stars,” securing a 50,000 Euro prize. The pair, who joined the competition as late replacements, won the final challenges to earn the title of “Promipaar des Jahres.”

Controversy surrounds the upcoming reunion episode, as preview footage suggests Ginger will appear without Lukas. Additionally, participants Julian F. M. Stoeckel and Marcell Damaschke have reportedly been uninvited from the reunion by RTL. Stoeckel stated there was no clear explanation for their exclusion, while RTL maintained that the selection of couples for the reunion is based solely on editorial criteria.

Following her victory, Ginger Costello-Wollersheim is scheduled to participate in a slap fighting event against Walentina Doronina. Medical professionals have warned that such competitions carry significant risks, including potential permanent brain damage and concussions, due to the lack of defensive maneuvers allowed during the matches.
