His wife Corinna has spent the years since creating a private world around Michael as he continues his recovery. Schumacher's condition has remained a secret across the last decade but the recent signing of Stewart's racing helmet has given the motorsport world a glimmer of hope.

It's been a long, horrible journey for the family, and maybe we'll hopefully see him in the F1 paddock soon."

What happened to Michael Schumacher? MICHAEL Schumacher's life was hanging by a thread 12 years ago as medics tried desperately to keep him alive after a tragic skiing crash that left him with horrific brain injuries. The F1 legend was given the best possible treatment as he was put into a medically induced coma, had his body temperature lowered and underwent hours of tricky operations on his brain. Back in 2013, the retired seven-time world champion, and his then 14-year-old son set off on the Combe de Saulire ski run in the exclusive French resort of Meribel. Footage from his helmet camera revealed he was not travelling at excessive speed when his skis struck a rock hidden beneath the snow. He catapulted forward 11.5ft and crashed into a boulder head first that split his helmet into two and left him needing to be airlifted to hospital for two life-saving operations. At one point his family were told to brace themselves for the worst case scenario as the situation was much worse than originally believed. At the time, medics said Schumacher was likely to stay in an induced coma for at least 48 hours as his body and mind recovered. But the coma ended up lasting 250 days - more than eight months. After he woke up in June 2014, he was discharged from hospital and sent to his home in Lake Geneva to get further treatment. Since then his wife Corinna and his inner circle of friends have expertly avoided almost anything leaking out about his health status. Only small amounts of information have been released including reports that Schumacher was in a wheelchair but can react to things around him. In 2019, it was said that Schumacher was set to undergo breakthrough stem cell therapy in a bid to regenerate and rebuild his nervous system. Renowned France cardiologist Dr Philippe Menasche, who had operated on him previously, was set to carry out the treatment that would see cells from his heart go to his brain. Following the treatment at the Georges Pompidou Hospital in Paris, he was said to be "conscious", although few other details were given about his state. The helmet is the latest in a number of positive signs surrounding Schumacher's health. He recently became a granddad for the first time last month after his daughter Gina welcomed a baby girl named Millie. The legendary Formula One driver is believed to have flown from his family's villa in Majorca to their Swiss mansion in a chopper to join his daughter before the birth. Advertisement Gina revealed she was pregnant shortly after tying the knot to partner Iain Bethke at a villa in Majorca last year. There was speculation at the time that her F1 champion dad attended the wedding, but it is unclear if he ever made the ceremony. 7 Mark Stewart, the son of former British racing driver Jackie Stewart, holds his father's old helmet as he talks to Lewis Hamilton Credit: AFP 7 Stewart wore the hat as he completed a lap of the track before the Bahrain Grand Prix in April Credit: EPA Advertisement 7 Schumacher with Herbert in 1995 Credit: Getty

Princess Beatrice and Her Husband Edo Arrive Holding Hands for Easter Sunday Services in Windsor
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi joined the British royal family for Easter Sunday services at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle. The princess chose a dark green belted coat dress with matching Mary Jane-style heels, topped off with a sparkling gold headband for the occasion. Her sister and brother-in-law, Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, also attended services, as did as her parents, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York. Following a poignant appearance at Maundy Thursday services at Durham Cathedral King Charles and Queen Camilla led the group inside St. George's Chapel to mark the holiday. Also present were Princess Anne and her husband, Sir Timothy Laurence, as well as Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh. Notably missed were Prince William and Kate Middleton, and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The Wales family will be spending the holiday at Anmer Hall, their country home in Norfolk. Princess Beatrice was also recently seen alongside her sister Princess Eugenie as well as several other members of the Royal Family earlier in April at the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix. Other members of the House of Windsor spotted at the Bahrain International Circuit included Peter Phillips and his daughters Savannah, 14, and Isla, 13, and Zara and Mike Tindall—none of whom attended Easter Mattins services today. Earlier this year, Princess Beatrice and Edo welcomed their second child, Athena Elizabeth Rose, in January. Baby Athena is little sister to Beatrice and Edo's daughter, Sienna Elizabeth, who was born in September 2021, as well as Edo's son, Christopher Woolf (known by family as 'Wolfie'), from a previously relationship. In March, the princess penned an essay about her daughter's premature birth for British Vogue. Beatrice noted in the essay that she teamed up with Alice Naylor-Leyland, founder of home decor and tablescape brand Mrs. Alice, to raise money for Borne, an organization dedicated to researching and preventing premature births. Beatrice will also serve as the group's patron. 'I was very fortunate to be monitored closely by a medical team and I'm extremely aware of how lucky I am,' Beatrice wrote in the essay. 'This is a driving force in me to do as much as possible to help where I can.' You Might Also Like 12 Weekend Getaway Spas For Every Type of Occasion 13 Beauty Tools to Up Your At-Home Facial Game
