Despite the abundance of staircases in his house, his daughter Victoria (20) has installed handrails everywhere. However, the TV presenter still needs to learn how to walk again as he relies on a rollator currently. He commented, "I'm not afraid of it; it's just how things are. I'm still undergoing training and physiotherapy, with my physiotherapist Tosca visiting me frequently."

Carlo has had a walking frame since May 2023, which he currently uses every day

In addition to that, he has been spending his time reading in his room. His ultimate ambition is to resume his career in hosting on NDR Schlager. He stated, "I've made up my mind to do that."

Carlo married his long-term partner Julia Laubrunn in Venice on his 69th birthday in 2012

His family is the primary source of support for him. He remarked, "Without them, my life would come to a halt. My wife Julia assists me along with Victoria." Von Tiedemann is married to his current wife, Julia (58), since 2012, and fondly is referred to as "Julchen." He expressed, "I wouldn't have achieved what I have without her. Julia is the love of my life. And I'm especially grateful for her help, particularly during this tough time."
