David Schumacher, the nephew of legendary Formula 1 racer Michael Schumacher, has revealed his engagement to Vivien Keszthelyi. The couple, who met through a mutual acquaintance and have been together for several years, shared the joyous news on social media during the weekend.
David, who competed in the 2025 GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup for the HRT Ford Performance team, popped the question to the Hungarian driver while they were on a romantic getaway in the Maldives.
Posting romantic photos on Instagram, the 24-year-old wrote, “She said yes. The ocean bore witness to our love, and the sunset sealed our vow. 05.11.2025.” Vivien expressed her gratitude for the outpouring of well-wishes and supportive messages.
Among the first to show approval by ‘liking’ the post was David’s father, Ralf, a six-time Formula 1 race winner. In a poignant turn of events, Michael, David’s older brother, suffered a severe head injury in a skiing accident in 2013, leading to his current state of requiring constant medical attention at home.
After spending 250 days in a medically induced coma, Michael returned home and has since been under continuous medical care. Neurosurgeon Dr. Jussi Posti, closely following the case, indicated that Michael’s condition has likely remained stable for the past decade.
Corinna, Michael’s wife, provided insights into his life in a Netflix documentary released in 2021. She shared Michael’s words before the tragic accident and reflected on the impact it has had on their family.
Mick, Schumacher’s son, also shared his perspective on the accident and how it has altered his relationship with his father, emphasizing their shared passion for motorsport and the lost opportunities for connection.
