And German outlet Bild claim that he is planning a three-day wedding in Saint-Tropez this May.
Schumacher, 50, is set to tie the knot with partner Etienne Bousquet-Cassagne, who is 14 years his junior.
And Schumacher’s ex-wife, Cora, has even sent them her well-wishes despite publicly launching digs at ex-hubby Ralf since their split.
Cora said: “[My partner] Steven and I wish Ralf and Etienne all the best and much happiness.”
She and Schumacher married in 2001 and spent another 13 years together, welcoming a son, David, into the world.
Cora has found love again with new partner Steven Bo Bekendam – a 44-year-old American.
And she claims not to be in contact with either Ralf or their son, David.
Since their divorce, Cora has BURNED her wedding dress and publicly revealed that Ralf is “blocked” on her phone.

The six-time Grand Prix winner is believed to spend most of the year in the south of France with new partner Etienne.
The Schumacher brothers retired as F1 legends but only one has been in the public eye since ‘s devastating in 2013.
The seven-time world title winner spent months in a coma after hitting his head on a rock, and his loved ones have kept his condition a secret ever since.
Ralf has also remained tight-lipped on the specifics of Michael’s current situation.
And he even hinted at having drifted apart from his brother’s family, telling Bunte in 2023: “Unfortunately, sometimes life isn’t fair.
“We have to accept it. When I see [Michael’s wife] Gina-Maria and [his son] Mick, my heart smiles.
“If someone in the family is looking for my advice, I’m there. They go their own way.”
