During her school days Magda met a young Jewish man named Haim Arlosoroff. Arlosoroff was then a socialist Zionist and he would later become an important politician. The two fell in love.
In January, 1921 she got married to Günther Quandt . Their son – Harald – was born in November the same year.
When her husband discovered she had an affair, they separated and divorced in 1929.
When in 1930 shee met Joseph Goebbels who would become the Nazi Minister of Propaganda and Adolf Hitler. Magda and Joseph became lovers and they got married in December 1931. Adolf Hitler was their best man.
Between 1932 and 1940 Magda and Joseph Goebbels had 6 children each with names starting with H in honor of Hitler who was often photographed playing with them.
Even though the Goebbels family was presented as the ideal family of the Third Reich to the public, the reality was very different. Joseph was a womanizer and Magda knew about it. With one of his mistresses– famous Czech actress Lída Baarová – Joseph Goebbels fell in love.
World War II started on the 1st September 1939. Magda’s son Harald from her first marriage to Günther Quandt became a Luftwaffe pilot and Magda spent her time raising her 6 children, entertaining the wives of foreign heads of state, comforting war widows or working with the electronics company where she travelled on a bus, like her colleagues. While some witnesses claimed that in her inner circle, she started to be critical of the regime, she never stopped publicly supporting Hitler and the Nazi Party.
In April 1945 the Soviet Red Army entered Berlin and Goebbels family including 6 children, between the ages of 4 and 12, moved into Hitler’s bunker under the Reich Chancellery garden on 22 April 1945. Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide on the 30th of April, 1945. Magda and Josef decided to follow them with their children on the following day.
