Ramtin Abdo is the former husband of the British sports broadcaster Kate Abdo, and a Berlin businessman whose full name in German company records is Ramtin Abdolmajid. The two married in 2010 and divorced in 2016, per the biographical record carried on her Wikipedia page. He has never worked in television, and he does not give interviews.
He is a businessman with no public profile of his own. Most people arrive at the name through Kate Abdo’s years fronting Champions League coverage for CBS Sports, then find that the man behind the surname has a paper trail, narrow and unglamorous.
That paper trail is corporate, and it is thin. It does not include a birthday, a university, or a bank balance. It does include register numbers, filing dates and the exact roles he held, and those can be checked by anyone with a browser.
Why the name Abdo comes first
The short answer is that Abdo is her married name, not his. Kate Scott was born Kate Giles in Manchester, took the name Abdo while married, and kept it on air long after the marriage ended. Wikipedia lists the marriage as 2010 to 2016.
Her professional record explains why the name stuck. She was working in sports broadcasting well before the wedding, but it was as Kate Abdo that she became a familiar face on Champions League coverage, and the name was still on screen when CBS Sports extended her contract in 2023.
Read his record, not hers. In German filings the surname appears in its full form, Abdolmajid, and none of the six companies in those filings is registered to a Ramtin Abdo. Wikipedia describes him as a German-Iranian businessman, citing her page as the source. That entry is the only widely available statement about his background, and it does not come with a document behind it.
What does the register show?
The register shows a short list of management roles at small Berlin companies, the longest of which has run since 2016. No filing in that list states what he owns, what any company earns, or what he is worth.
INA Ventures GmbH is the thread that runs through it. The Berlin company was registered on 6 July 2015 with share capital of EUR 25,000, at what is now Brunnenstrasse 166, 10119 Berlin, according to the register notices for HRB 168495 B. Its stated object is to acquire, hold and manage its own assets, including holdings in other companies, with licensed banking and investment business expressly excluded. Nothing in the entry mentions property development or logistics.
Ramtin Abdolmajid became its managing director on 4 April 2016, replacing the first director, and a 2022 constitutional change recorded that he could represent the company alone. The register does not grant that authority by default. A Hamburg branch followed in June 2020.
The rest of the roles are dated, and several are already over.

The pattern is the ordinary one for a small holding structure: one company at the centre, a set of restaurant vehicles around it, and directorships that move when a site changes hands. Eight register events across nine years is a small operator, not a conglomerate. Designations and dates above come from the register-derived filing history for Ramtin Abdolmajid.
What the register cannot show about Ramtin Abdo
A register cannot show wealth. German company law requires a GmbH to hold EUR 25,000 in registered share capital before it can trade, a legal minimum that says nothing about the value of the business or of the man who signs for it.
German filings record roles, addresses and corporate events. They do not disclose shareholdings, revenue, liabilities or bank balances. Ownership can sit with a person who never appears as a director, and most of the businesses above name a single managing director without publishing who the shareholders are. A directorship is evidence of a job, not of a fortune.
Wikidata holds an item for him under the name Ramtin Abdolmajid, described only as businessman. It carries no date of birth, no employer, no education and no website, and the only personal relationship recorded is his former wife, Kate Scott. The item is a stub built around the marriage.
Published wealth figures lead somewhere else. The Sun puts his net worth at about £10 million, attributing the number to “various reports” and never tracing it further. Other profile sites state $10 million to $20 million. Every one of those numbers sits on a page that gives no source for it, and none of them appears in any register.
Are he and Kate Abdo still together?
No. The marriage ended in divorce in 2016, and Kate Abdo married the boxing trainer Malik Scott in September 2024. Wikipedia records her first marriage as 2010 to 2016, and a detailed profile of her published in 2024, drawn from interviews with her, described a separation some years before the wedding to Scott.
That gap is why two dates circulate. Some sites place the split in 2016, the year the marriage was dissolved. Others work backwards from the 2024 wedding and arrive at a separation in about 2012. Both can be true at once: a marriage can end in practice well before a court ends it on paper. No document has surfaced that settles the separation date, and no reliable source states a reason for the split.
