The woman in the background: Why doesn’t Marco Odermatt’s girlfriend say anything about him in the documentary?
Stella Parpan is Marco Odermatt’s girlfriend. The public knows little about the woman from Nidwalden. The 25-year-old stays discreetly in the background. And refrains from appearing in the documentary film about the ski star.
When the Swiss athletes had something to celebrate at the World Ski Championships in Courchevel and Méribel, they ended up at the House of Switzerland. She was also present at the party after Marco Odermatt’s giant slalom gold medal: Stella Parpan, 25 years old, from Stansstad in the canton of Nidwalden. She sat there in a brown blazer, right next to Odermatt. The public hardly knows Stella Parpan. One would like to ask her how she has perceived the last few weeks and months. How did she experience the time when her partner became the most respected person in the country?
