Matthias would probably like to lift the whole world above his head out of happiness after the 27-year-old became a father nearly a week ago.
His wife Inge (39) gave birth to son Felix in hospital in Heidelberg. The youngster already weighs nearly four kilograms.
BILD: How did if feel to hear your son cry?
Steiner: “It was a huge relief when the little one first cried. It was emotionally overwhelming.”
BILD: In which sport should we be expecting Felix to compete in in the 2036 Olympics? Will you recommend a sport to him?
Steiner: “Why 2036? I’m already thinking about 2032. I was at my first Olympic games at 22 after all. He’s allowed to choose the sport himself. But I would naturally be pleased if he became a sportsman.”
BILD: Do you have more fear of the future now as a new father?
Steiner: “Less, in fact. It gives me more hope.”
BILD: Do you already feel that fatherhood has changed you?
Steiner: “Yes, absolutely. I must now plan my time much more carefully for the little one, I can no longer just change my plans at any time. That is a new experience for me.” (Based on Bild story)
