Rainer Schaller was not married but he was in a relationship with Christine Schikorsky.
According to reports, a Piaggio P.180 Avanti plane carrying Rainer Schaller, his partner Christine Schikorsky, and their children disappeared en route from Palenque, Mexico to Limón, Costa Rica on October 21, 2022. They are presumed dead.
Although Christine Schikorsky has been identified as the partner of Schaller, her details are unavailable on the web.
Through their relationship, Rainer Schaller and Christine Schikorsky share two children; Aaron and Finja Schaller.
The founder and CEO of the RSG Group, Schaller completed his training as a retail salesman in Schlüsselfeld. He supplemented this with further training to become a business and retail specialist.
The RSG Group operates 21 global gym chains and lifestyle brands including Gold’s Gym, McFit and John Reed.
In 2020, Schaller acquired Gold’s Gym, which was in bankruptcy due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The conglomerate operates in 48 countries and has 41,000 employees, either directly or through franchises.
Schaller made international headlines in 2010 as an organizer of the Berlin Love Parade techno festival after a crowd crush killed 21 people and injured 652 others at the event. He testified as a witness in the court proceedings on the accident in 2018, and accepted moral responsibility, but was not charged.
