Personal Life
Sandra and Michael Cretu were married on 7 January 1988 and, in July 1995, became the parents of twin sons, Nikita and Sebastian. They were divorced in November 2007, citing "personal and professional differences". While Michael has been living in Germany since May 2009, she has continued to reside in Ibiza and, in 2010, married music producer Olaf Menges (Who Co-Produced her album Back To Life). Known as a health food lover and a vegetarian, she likes sports, lives an active lifestyle and has been a strong supporter of animal rights and nature protection.
She is writing songs, actively recording new material and in late 2010, Sandra took part in the rock-anthem project, "Rock for Your Children", the Charity-Song-Initiative of Conny Conrad. The sales of the CD and the downloads will enable the funding of defined projects against child poverty. Sandra's official website has confirmed 2 album releases scheduled for release in 2012, both in different musical styles. Sandra has meanwhile recorded a new version of the Arabesque song "Ecstasy", written and produced by Michael Cretu in 1986.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:
“The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To “see the light” too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The primary imperative for women who intend to assume a meaningful and decisive role in today’s social change is to begin to perceive themselves as having an identity and personal integrity that has as strong a claim for being preserved intact as that of any other individual or group.”
—Margaret Adams (b. 1916)
“It is impossible, as impossible as to raise the dead, to restore anything that has ever been great or beautiful in architecture. That which I have ... insisted upon as the life of the whole, that spirit which is given only by the hand and eye of the workman, can never be recalled.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
