Naddel crossed paths with Dieter in 1989 and went on to become a backing singer  for his his Blue System project.

During that time, Naddel continued to work part-time at a hospice.

Back in 1999, she caught the year with two photoshoots for Playboy before going on to hit the spotlight in the 2000s thanks to her role hosting RTL2’s Peep as well as an appearance in the first season of Germany’s I’m A Celebrity in 2004.

The following 15 years saw Naddel’s life marred by health and financial woes.

In her 2018 autobiography Achterbahn, she revealed she had been suffering from cirrhosis of the liver, which was exacerbated by both substance abuse and her medication for ADHD.

However, despite warnings from doctors, Naddel admitted she had difficulties in giving up the booze.
