Character's background[]
Annegret is the alcoholic mother of Tanja von Anstetten. In 1996 she came to Düsseldorf where she disgraced herself and Tanja in front of the aristocratic Anstetten family and the press. Soon after, Annegret left town and was not seen for years.
In August 2008, Annegret returns after hearing her daughter will marry rich aristocrat Ansgar von Lahnstein. Charlie Schneider uses this information to shock Tanja, her old enemy. Annegret wants to regain a connection with her daughter but Tanja refuses to let her mother back in her life. Ansgar did not marry Tanja for love and wants her out of his life. His former wife and current lover Nathalie is suspicious about Tanja's relationship with her mother and wants to find out what happened. Ansgar finds a clue by asking about Tanja's younger brother Thomas, who died under mysterious circumstances as a child. He believes that Tanja may have been involved in his death. Tanja repeatedly rejects her mother's attempts at a relationship, leading Annegret, an alcoholic, to drink. Ansgar finds Annegret and sees his chance to find out what happened. Tanja employs former jail keeper Ulla Müller to hold her mother hostage and drug her. Ansgar and Nathalie find Annegret and are locked up by Ulla Müller. They are all rescued by the police. Annegret recovers and returns to Castle Königsbrunn, where Ansgar expects to hear the truth. She refuses to turn Tanja in to the police. Annegret begins to tell how Tanja's father beat her and how Thomas tried to protect her. After being pushed down the stairs by his father, Thomas died. Tanja was blamed by her parents and placed in a psychiatric institution for two years. Annegret tearfully asks for forgiveness after telling the story.
Ansgar again tries to use his mother-in-law to get out of his marriage with Tanja. He tries to provoke her with Annegret, which leads to Tanja to pressure her mother to leave Düsseldorf for good. Annegret agrees, but only if Tanja will bring her to the airport. On the way, she attempts to make peace with Tanja but blackmails her to commit suicide. To Tanja's surprise, Annegret kills herself.
