Corinna Schumacher was hailed a heroine after she was pictured smiling and joking during her first public appearance since her husband's catastrophic ski accident.
Corinna has spent months by the bedside of her husband Michael, 45, as he was kept in a medically induced coma after suffering a major head injury when he fell while skiing in France in December.
She was pictured laughing and handing out chocolates at a riding event in her native Switzerland this weekend after Michael was recently transferred from the hospital in Grenoble, France to a unit near his Swiss home.
This smile is a message about fate,' said Germany's Bild newspaper. 'It means: we will fight. For every happy moment in life.'
Just weeks ago experts warned Corinna was on the cusp of making herself gravely ill with her worries over the future for her husband Michael, 45, as the Formula One ace struggled to come out of the six month induced coma.
Schumacher's manager Sabine Kehm was with her as she held a western-style riding tournament called 'reining' at the ranch. Corinna became an expert in the pursuit several years ago and has won prizes for her skill around the world.
At the CS Ranch - the initials stand for her name - Corinna, 45, was 'the epitome of grace and charm. A life on hold has now flooded back to her. This was a statement to the world that she is comfortable with the progress Michael is making and knows that life must always go on,' said a Swiss radio station.
Riders from more than a dozen nations turned up at the ranch for the day's events at the ultra-modern arena that Corinna bought in 2004.
Bild quoted a guest as saying: 'Ms Schumacher radiated an incredible warmth. She was not so mighty that she couldn't push away a wheelbarrow with manure from the stables. She had kind words for everyone there."
