Johnny de Mol about Jeroen van Rietbergen: ‘An incredible bastard'

Johnny told earlier today that he thinks it is very double that he is in his talk show HLF8 will have to talk about the vicissitudes around The Voice of Holland while his family is involved. “But yes, we are a talk show and then you have to talk about it,” said the presenter in the Good morning 100% NL show at 100% NL. According to him, there is ‘a lot of emotion’ in the family.

Johnny opened the talk show with that he thinks he is ‘natural’ about the reporting around The Voice have to have. The program maker says to ‘look at it with triple glasses’. “As a person, as a program maker and as a family member,” he says. According to Johnny, he is “not objective enough” at the moment. “And maybe never.”

The presenter thinks it is terrible for the people ‘who have come into contact with these misconduct’. But at the same time he also finds it annoying ‘for the other party’. “That is very close to me. I understand that this is not in proportion to the grief of those involved,” says Johnny. He continues: ,,Until then, we can’t say much about it, because we simply don’t know yet. We as a program want to handle this with the utmost care.”

Or his father John de Mol, who The Voice and was involved in making the program in the beginning, knew about everything that was going on with Rietbergen, Johnny doesn’t know. He assumes so, but ‘I don’t know how it was all handled then’. He said he has not yet spoken to his father, who has not yet responded to the news.

Jeroen van Rietbergen said in his statement on Saturday that he and Linda de Mol had already separated for a while. Johnny de Mol says he didn’t know anything about it. “Nobody knew about that. They have kept that a secret.” About Linda de Mol, who has ended her relationship with Jeroen, he says that she is very upset. “He is quite confused, yes. You should know that.”

He also says that he thinks Jeroen is an ‘unbelievable bastard’. “It’s really a dick the wallpaper.” Yet he also says: ,,But we do love him. He is ashamed. Linda also has a young daughter who sees him as a bonus father…”
