Horst's biological parents were not married. Horst was first raised by a foster family in West German, and then moved, due to WWII, to Jena, East Germany, to be raised by his uncle and aunt, Maximilian and Gertrude Kessler. After the war, Horst was raised by his biological mother, Anna Thran and her husband Eric, in East Germany.

When Horst was a young man, he left East Germany on the pretense of going to visit his father in Munich. Horst never returned to East Germany, until the wall came down. Then he was able to visit the aunt and uncle that raised him. Horst qualified as an optical technician, however, his passion for ballroom dancing changed his career path and he started Kessler Studio of Dancing, in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. Horst had three wives. Horst had one child with his third wife. I am Horst's 2nd wife.
