description: "Maike Kohl-Richter is best known as the second wife of the former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl from 2008 until his death in 2017. She is controversial in Germany for her right-wing anti-immigrant views and support for Viktor Orbán, and for her public feud with Kohl's children and grandchildren. She has been accused of hijacking the Kohl legacy and \"has been criticized by Kohl's own children for allegedly hero-worshipping the former chancellor and being obsessed\" with him. She was criticized by German media, public figures and the Kohl family after Kohl's death."
