Verona Pooth (58) has begun a new chapter in Dubai - saying goodbye to her long-time home was anything but easy for her. In her Instagram story, the host now spoke emotionally about moving out of her house in Meerbusch and revealed that tears were shed in the process.

While sitting in the car and talking to her followers, the 58-year-old looks back on the past few weeks. The farewell to the family home deeply affected her.

"Of course I was really, really sad. Of course the tears ran down my face, it was truly a matter of the heart", she shares openly. "Of course I lost a piece of my heart in that moment. But I believe all of us Pooths did. It was incredibly difficult for Franjo too, and for the children as well."

Farewell after many years in Meerbusch

The house in Meerbusch had been the Pooth family's home for many years. Verona and her husband Franjo Pooth (56), whom she has been married to since 2004, lived there with their two sons Diego (22) and Rocco (15) and spent a large part of their family life there.

The final farewell was evidently all the more difficult. The last day in Germany remains especially memorable for the host. "The last day in Meerbusch last week, I was really sad, sat on the stairs and the tears ran down my face", she reports, visibly moved.

Anticipation for the new chapter prevails

At the same time, the whole family is looking forward to the fresh start. The farewell from the house was easier for both sons in particular. About her older son Diego, she says: "I think Diego had the advantage that he's been away for a long time. First in the USA, then in Berlin, where he's studying."

Son Rocco quickly settled into his new environment: "With Rocco, it was the case that he arrived extremely well here in Dubai. And he's so popular here and has great friends and can also ride a motorcycle, which is more difficult in Germany. All of that helped."

Verona Pooth already relocated her home base to Dubai in the summer of 2025. The metropolis in the United Arab Emirates has been attracting numerous German celebrities for several years. Verona herself emphasizes in her story that despite all the nostalgia, the anticipation for the new life prevails. After the emotional memories of Meerbusch, she makes it clear: "But I'm happy to be here."
