The former Paris Saint-Germain manager has been dealing with a lot in the past few months, including the fallout of Roman Abramovich’s sanctions. The onus has largely fell on Tuchel’s shoulders with board members refusing to answer questions from reporters.
And while his future at Stamford Bridge remains up in the air amid the ongoing situation with their ownership, Tuchel has also had to deal with the collapse of his marriage. According to the Daily Mail, his wife Sissi began divorce proceedings last week.

Friends remarked that “all avenues are exhausted” and there are no hopes over reconciliation. A source told the publication: “Sissi and Thomas have tried to avoid splitting but in the end there was no other way. It is very sad and now it is all about making sure their daughters are the top priority. Papers were lodged last week to get the divorce under way.”
Tuchel earns a reported £7million-a-year and now faces an expensive divorce case after his partner gave up her job at German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung to support their family. It means that Mrs Tuchel could be entitled to a chunk of the coach’s future earnings.
It has been reported that the two are keen to keep the divorce as civil as possible. But it has been a rollercoaster of a journey since Tuchel made the move to the Premier League.
