Ralf Schumacher’s wedding to partner Étienne Bousquet-Cassagne will take place this weekend, with the ceremony set to feature in their TV series.
Sky Deutschland and streaming platform WOW have been filming the former Formula One driver and his fiancé ahead of their wedding in Saint-Tropez on Saturday (30 May). The four-part documentary, Ralf & Étienne: We Say Yes, follows the couple through the planning process, including preparations for the ceremony and their life together in the south of France.
The series premiered on 21 May, with the wedding finale episode airing on 6 June 2026.

Around 110 guests are expected to attend the wedding, according to Schumacher’s son David, who revealed the celebrations will feature a coordinated dress code.
The series also documents Bousquet-Cassagne undergoing a facelift ahead of the ceremony – something Schumacher admitted he initially disagreed with.
“I was against it,” Schumacher told cameras. “It’s not necessary. It’s beautiful to grow old together.”
Schumacher publicly confirmed his relationship with Bousquet-Cassagne in July 2024, becoming one of the few Formula One figures to come out publicly.
The couple confirmed their engagement earlier this year in a joint statement.

“Ralf and Étienne will not comment on any further personal details and kindly ask that their privacy be respected. Thank you for your understanding.”
Schumacher competed in Formula One between 1997 and 2007, winning six Grands Prix during his career. He now works as a motorsport commentator for Sky Germany.
Ralf & Étienne: We Say Yes is yet to be picked up by a UK broadcaster.
