Remove the plant from the pot, remove all the soil you can without hurting the healthy roots, remove all the rotted roots, (1/2)

and place the plant in a new pot with a new soil. Also you can shorten long branches and use leftovers as cuttings (backup plan). (2/2)

Leave as many healthy leaves as possible until it starts to reshoot new growth and stabilizes.

You could probably cut the sick leaves off.. as long as the stem isn't rotting as well it'll be ok. What kind of climate do you live in?

I had a similar issue with my peppers in Australia which turned out to be too much sun :(

Just based on the "meine" in the title I'd guess Germany/Austria/Switzerland, but that's probably not enough to draw a conclusion from

"My wife gifted meine this beauty". I'd guess it's autocorrect based on your most typed words, so if you speak German that would explain it

You guessed right about the auto correct. The funny part is that I don't even speak german hahaha
