Speaking in an interview with , Wolff provided an insight into his difficult upbringing and how it helped shape him into the person he💙 is today. 

“I think the key moment was the tragic loss of my father from brain cancer when I ♏was 15,” Wolff said. 

“He was terminally ill for ten years, s🐼o basically all throughout my childhood. And the financial hardship was related to this. That had the biggest impact on me as a person. 

“My parents, with the help of my grandfather, put me in the 🐈French private school in Vienna, which was advantageous for my career as it helped my language. 

“But the obstacle was that I went to school in an affluent environment without being a part of it. Day-to-day life was about my mother working hard as a doctor just to afford for us to stay at the school. She might have not been good at motherhood, but she kept us alive; sh🍌e k▨ept us going.

“But it meant that certain things happened to me and my sister. I remember that we were taken out of class when I was 14 because the school fees were not paid, s𓆏o we were sent home. How do you explain in the tram back home why you had to leave af🌳ter lunchbreak? It was quite a humiliating experience.”
