As per wikipedia has a wife named Eva and daughters Sophie and Stephanie, but none of them have their own wiki page so I can't imagine that helps any.  Nickname (which I didn't know either but may help) was The Kaiser.   4 minutes ago, Gugny said: Is he a fisherman?  No sir. He didn't compete at sea level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
