Personal life

edit

Manz relocated to Switzerland around 1968 according to different sources either due to her first husband who was a fishmonger (she was often referred to as oyster salesperson) but to her own reference she studied in Zurich. On 14 August 1974, she married recently widowed Caspar E. Manz (1923-2010), a well-known and wealthy hotelier from Zurich, with whom she had two sons, twins Alexander and Michael (born 1980).[4]

On 15 August 2014, Manz married Dr. Marco Conte (born 1972), at the town hall of Zollikon near Zurich.[5]
