Police officers and firefighters responded to the scene but could not save the lad who lost control of his quad bike.
It was gathered that Ballack had welcomed his three kids for a family barbecue.
The former German international struggled to come to terms with his son's death, and he sought help from psychologists.
Sophia Schneiderman, who had been friends with the footballer's son, was devastated.
The tragedy brought the model and Ballack closer as they sought comfort.
Tribuna reports that the lovers were spotted in Berlin and were having a special romantic moment.

According to ESPN, Emilio was born to Michael Ballack's then-girlfriend Simone Lambe in 2002.
The former Germany captain also has two other sons, born in 2001 and 2005, from his relationship with Lambe.
How Giggs rested 3 weeks for Ballack

The Welshman claims the legendary Man United manager told him he would cause the German midfielder nightmares when both Premier League rivals clashed.
