Annemarie and Wayne Carpendale appeared together as co-hosts for the charity gala “Kids Future Unlocked” in Vienna, presenting a unified front just a day after making their separation public, according to regional reporting. The former couple posed arm in arm and smiled for photographers at the Hofburg venue, showing no outward sign of the recent media attention surrounding their announcement.
Vienna Gala Brings Separated Hosts Together
Star-Studded Support for St. Anna Children’s Cancer Research
The event marked the second edition of the charity gala, hosted by the Ambassador Circle of the St. Anna Children’s Cancer Research. According to organizers, last year’s premiere raised more than 550,000 euros through auctions and donations. Alongside the Carpendales, notable guests at the Vienna gathering included Oscar winner Christoph Waltz and singer Melody Gardot. Additional figures who had agreed to support the cause included US star Bryan Adams, motorsport team principal Toto Wolff, Formula 1 driver Kimi Antonelli, tennis star Roger Federer, and football coach Ralf Rangnick.
Red Carpet Fashion at the Hofburg
Photographs from the German media outlet Bild showed the pair leaving their shared hotel together prior to the event. Annemarie Carpendale, 48, initially wore casual sneakers paired with a bronze-colored glittering gown featuring a high slit, later switching to matching high heels for the gala. Wayne Carpendale, 49, wore a classic black tuxedo with a bow tie.
A Joint Announcement Followed by Shared Living
The joint appearance followed a video shared by the couple on Monday evening, in which they announced they had not been a couple since the beginning of the year. The silent clip featured text overlays explaining that they remain happy, function as a family, and continue to live under the same roof despite no longer being together. Captions noted that they still get along well, continue to wear their rings, and remain a strong team while sharing a home in Munich. The pair began their relationship in 2007, became engaged in 2011, married on September 28, 2013, and welcomed their son in May 2018.
