Martien Meiland has been on the tube for six years with his reality series on SBS 6, but the persistent criticism is only now starting to take its toll. “At a certain point the bucket will be over.”

There is really no one who expected Martien Meiland and his family to keep it up on the tube for so long. They have been written off several times, but nevertheless manage to maintain themselves on Dutch television. Yet it is increasingly difficult for Martien Meiland to deal with all the criticism of him and his family, says brother Jaap.

Martien suffers

Jaap Meiland, who recently stole the show with his performance in Chateau Meiland, states that his brother is starting to suffer more and more. There is a lot of criticism of his alleged lack of authenticity. “I find that annoying, I hear it very often. You always have to defend:” Joh, it’s not an act at all! “Says the brother.

He continues in the Weekend: “I also often see X comment appearing such as:” It is all played. ” But people who know us say, “That’s really Mart.” It keeps having to chase him and you actually have to stand above that. “

Bucket

However, Martien is increasingly difficult. “I am involved in what people say. Mart sometimes has a lot of it, but at some point the bucket will be over once. I might have that myself if that happens often.”

“Mart had less trouble with it in the beginning than now. Why? Because it is always repeated and repeated. At a certain point it is ready of course.”

Never never

Finally: would Jaap not like to live under one roof with his brother and sister -in -law Erica, just like Maxime Meiland? “No, never, never. Very earlier, when Evelien was still my girlfriend, we lived in a rental house.
Mart and Honor were then able to buy a villa in Sassenheim and asked if we wanted to do that together with them. ”

“I was thinking about it at the time, but no. That doesn’t work exactly. I am crazy about them, but it is not to live together. I have a very different life than Mart and Honor and there: my wife and I live beautifully beautiful.”
