Moderator Louis Klamroth (33) and climate activist Luisa Neubauer (26) are a couple. The 33-year-old successor to Frank Plasberg (65) has now confirmed this to the media magazine "DWDL" at the ARD political talk "hard but fair". When the interview is about journalistic independence, the decisive sentences fall. The interviewer did not deny the interviewer's statement that journalist Klamroth was "together with Luisa Neubauer", the "face of the German climate protection movement". Rather, Klamroth replied: "Since I'm with a person in public life, I think the audience has a right to know that, so it's important to me to be transparent at this point."

With the words "my private life will remain private in the future," Klamroth ruled out revealing further details about the relationship with Neubauer. The journalist moderated “The ProSieben Bundestag Election Show” last year and will take over from predecessor Plasberg on “hart aber fair” on January 9, 2023. He moderated the popular ARD program for the last time on November 14th. His partner Neubauer, who has now become well-known, will not be seen by "hard but fair" viewers. “And it goes without saying that my partner will not be a guest on my show,” explained Klamroth in this regard.
