David Schumacher, the nephew of legendary Formula 1 driver Michael Schumacher, has recently gotten engaged to Vivien Keszthelyi. The couple, who met through mutual acquaintances and have been in a relationship for several years, shared the exciting news on social media during the past weekend.
David, a racer who competed in the 2025 GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup for the HRT Ford Performance team, proposed to Vivien while they were on a romantic trip to the Maldives. Sharing picturesque moments on Instagram, the 24-year-old expressed their joy, mentioning the date of the engagement.
Vivien, in response to the outpouring of supportive messages, expressed gratitude for the well-wishes. Among the first to show support was David’s father, Ralf, a successful Formula 1 driver with six race wins to his name. Notably, David’s older brother, Michael, the seven-time world champion, suffered a severe head injury in a skiing accident in 2013, leading to his current condition requiring constant medical care at home.
