They are definitely not an off-the-shelf couple – the 25-year-old model Nathalie Volk and the 64-year-old entrepreneur Frank Otto. For a few months, the two have been celebrating their love comeback, now also publicly on the red carpet.
After their love-off in 2020, Nathalie Volk and Frank Otto found each other again. The 25-year-old confirmed this on her Instagram page in March.
At the 72nd Hamburg Press Ball, the unlikely couple appeared together again on the red carpet. “We can build on a five-year history. We may not even know how today,” said 64-year-old Otto in an RTL interview on this occasion. Volk added: “What happens next is written in the stars.”
At the same time, the model, who also wants to gain a foothold as an actress in the USA under the name Miranda DiGrande, enthused about her partner in the interview: “Frank has a young soul. When I talk to him or we have fun together, we just swap our energies run out and I don’t look to see if he has another wrinkle.”
Volk is certain that they have “a special connection”. “It was always there. Even when we had our break. That’s probably because I’ve known him since I was 18, he’s my first boyfriend.” Possibly Otto is also a kind of “father substitute”, admitted the model.
During the relationship break, Volk lived with another man in Turkey and was also engaged in the meantime. The contact with Frank Otto was still there: “He helped me to get out of it,” says Volk, referring to Otto and their failed relationship in Turkey. “I hope I’ll be a mother in ten years. That would be my biggest wish. And maybe an Oscar,” she added, laughing, looking at her current plans for the future.
Volk took part in the ninth season of “Germany’s next top model” as a student in 2014. In Heidi Klum’s casting show, she made it to the semifinals. Her next big TV engagement was the RTL jungle camp in early 2016. She then appeared in “Goodbye Germany”, among others.
The model and the Hamburg entrepreneur had confirmed their love in 2016. In November 2020, the separation became public. In October 2021 it was announced that Volks’s subsequent relationship had broken up. In the spring she finally declared that she was in a relationship with Frank Otto again.
