Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Eva Braun was the longtime companion of Adolf Hitler and, for less than 40 hours, his wife. Braun met Hitler in Munich when she was a 17-year-old assistant and model for his personal photographer Heinrich Hoffmann. She began seeing Hitler often about two years later. She attempted suicide twice during their early relationship. By 1936, she was a part of his household at the Berghof near Berchtesgaden and lived a sheltered life throughout World War II. Braun was a photographer, and she took many of the surviving color photographs and films of Hitler. She was a key figure within Hitler's inner social circle, but did not attend public events with him until mid-1944.

As Nazi Germany was collapsing towards the end of the war, Eva Braun swore loyalty to Hitler and went to Berlin to be by his side in the heavily reinforced Führerbunker beneath the Reich Chancellery. As Red Army troops fought their way into the neighborhood on 29 April 1945, she married Hitler during a brief civil ceremony; she was 33 and he was 56. Less than 40 hours later, they committed suicide together in a sitting room of the bunker, she by biting into a capsule of cyanide, and he by a gunshot to the head. The German public was unaware of Braun's relationship with Hitler until after their deaths.

[(quote from an actually unauthenticated letter) about <a class="ipc-md-link ipc-md-link--entity" href="/name/nm0386944/?ref_=nmqu_qu">Adolf Hitler</a>] From our first meeting I swore to follow him anywhere--even unto death. I live only for his love.
