Nathalie Brandner (née Käppler, formerly von Lahnstein) is a fictional character from the German soap opera Verbotene Liebe (Forbidden Love). The character is portrayed by actress Jenny Winkler. She first appeared on 12 November 2004 and had her final appearance on 14 December 2010.
In spite of the complications in Nathalie's relationship with Ansgar, the couple remained by the fans as one with the strongest supporter group. On internet message boards, the couple is often referred to as "Ansglie" (for Ansgar and Nathalie).
Nathalie grows up in the East Germany and lost her parents, when she fled to West Germany during the DDR. She finds a new home by her aunt Elke Käppler (Elke Bludau). Elke works as head maid for the aristocratic Lahnstein family. Nathalie grows up with them and soon finds good friends in Carla (Claudia Hiersche) and her brother Leonard (Lars Korten). With their oldest brother Ansgar (Wolfram Grandezka), Nathalie's relationship isn't so good. He makes always fun of her and likes to play his little games with him. But even through, Nathalie has a crush on him, which Ansgar never saw or doesn't want to see. With eighteen years, she leaves her aunt Elke and the Lahnstein family to study aboard to become a professional interpreter.
In 2004, after ten years, Nathalie returns to her old homes and reunites with her friends and aunt Elke. When the arrogant Ansgar first sees her, he can't remember who she is, but finds out eventually, that Nathalie is the kid he grew up with and became a very attractive woman since then. Nathalie truly didn't forget Ansgar or the feelings she once had for him. But she denies them now, seeing his arrogant type and despises him for that. Carla is happy that her old best friend returned and they remember old times together. Then Nathalie begins to support Carla in her war against Ansgar, when she finds out, that he outed his sister as a lesbian. Ansgar tries to frighten Nathalie, but it doesn't work, so that he tries to play the friends against each other. But Nathalie stays on Carla's side and proves Ansgar once and for all that she isn't this naive kid anymore. Nathalie begins to work as professional interpreter for Johannes (Thomas Gumpert) and the 'Lahnstein Holding'.
