Georg Schaeffler’s Complicated Love Life

Over the weekend, a fair number of people around town received an e-mail from Erika Nazem, owner of a Plano gym, saying that she’ll soon begin shooting a reality show about her life. Our friends at People Newspapers posted the e-mail. Who cares, right? Well, the thing is, Nazem has been romantically linked to Georg Schaeffler, a man who prefers to keep a low profile, and Nazem hinted in the e-mail that he might appear on this supposed show. I profiled Schaeffler in March 2007, in a story titled “The Billionaire Next Door.” At the time, I was told that Schaeffler and Nazem were breaking up. So I called Schaeffler’s D.C.-based lawyer to find out whether Dallas’ most under-the-radar billionaire was ready for his close-up.

Says Christopher Smith: “He did end his relationship with her about a year ago. It stays mostly off but it goes back on every once in a while. Georg is incredibly disappointed and frustrated with her shenanigans. He would never be on such a show. He won’t participate. If he were on a show like this, he’d be the laughing stock of Germany.”

So the question is, why would you send out an e-mail blast that would clearly anger your on-again, off-again reclusive billionaire boyfriend? My guess is that hell hath no fury.

Eh, Nazem?

    Well Hello Bloggers!
    I just learned of this blog and after reading it, I feel compelled to respond.
    First of all.
    Georg and I are not “on again, off again”. Everyone that knows us, friends, family, and people in the social scene that see us out regularily, know the truth. We broke up for about 2 weeks a year ago due to his lawyers, and many other people interfering in our relationship. It began to wear us down. However, the break up did not last long. We have been happily together for almost 5 years now. Of course we have had many struggles! If you knew what I had found out a few years ago??? You would all be seriousely questioning me why I am still with him! The answer is simple. I love him, my son loves him, and we are bonded down to the core.
    As far as his lawyers comments? What do you expect? Why would he admit anything, and why would he make a public statement? I think he is a smart enough man to understand that D Magazine is media. Press. Georg and I both have issues with the editor of D, and how they choose to represent situations.
    However, press is press. I will always try to see the positive in every negative.
    As far as Georg being unhappy with my “schinanigans? He just flew to Beverly Hills with me to meet with producers. He has stood by every decision I have ever made. He didn’t even tell me his lawyer was contacted by D Magazine. Are those actions of someone who is upset with my decisions?LOL
    The reality show is a positive spin on my hectic life in Dallas as a single mother, an owner of a women’s only gym, and my social life outside of running my home, and businesses, as well as my complicated relationship with a Billionaire. I believe I am in this world for a reason. To help people. If I can show my life and help people understand the difficulties of being associated with an heir,to be careful what you wish for. I will.
    Thank you all for your concern but believe me when I say, THIS IS MEDIA. PRESS. It is the job of “entertainment REPORTERS and lawyers to yes, lie, and stretch truths.
    I am an honest person, an open book. You will see that on my show.
    Next time D Magazine has questions? Maybe they should contact the source. ME!
    LOL
    Love to you all!
    Erika
