Born on 27 March 1986, in Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany, Neuer was raised in a middle-class family. While there isn’t much information about his parents, he has a brother named Marcel, who works as a soccer referee in the sixth-tier German league, Verbandsliga. The 6’4 goalie currently resides in Tegernsee, Bavaria, in a rather simple loft, nothing fancy, given his down-to-earth nature. Of course, the house isn’t alone as he lives with his second wife Anika Bissel, who is 14 years younger than him and is even a professional handball player.

The two love birds are said to have been with each other since 2020 and had a secret wedding. Interestingly, before meeting Anika, Neuer was married to Nina Weiss, a professional dressage rider. They locked eyes in 2014 and got married a couple of years later. Unfortunately, their marriage didn’t work out as they parted ways in 2019. Remarkably, even before Weiss, Neuer was in a long-term relationship with his childhood love, Kathrin Gilch. Even though he has been with three women, Neuer doesn’t have any children.
