It is one of the more spoken Dutch celebrities, but she will soon have her own soap on Netflix: former football woman Yolanthe Cabau. “If it is disappointing, then it is really a cat in the bag.”
How they ended up at Yolanthe Cabau is a mystery, because they don’t walk around much more colorless. Yet Netflix sees enough in the ex-football woman to make a whole soap about her life, including that of her 9-year-old son Xess Xava that has the pants on at home. The two have a rather curious relationship with each other.
Unhealthy
How is that? Xess Xava, for example, decides where they go on vacation; If he wants to go to Kenya, that happens too. And if they have a fight? Then he doesn’t go, but then Mama Yolanthe goes angry to her room. And then Xess pushes a note under her door to make it right. “Then I just melt. Then it’s good again.”
Unhealthy, Rob Goossens judged earlier. “Isn’t this a worrying roloming? A child of 8 should never feel burdened with the responsibility for the emotional well -being of his mother?”
Risk
We will see on Netflix from 18 June how all that is going on in Huize Cabau. The big question remains: why? “I think Netflix also finds her interesting because she is a girl from the Netherlands that it will try it in the big drawer,” says TV authority Tina Nijkamp in the Shownieuws from last night.
“I think they are sitting in that series in that series, but okay, that is of course not the case, because she was just married with a very rich, popular, world-famous football player, so of course she is not that normal. Anyway, she is an actress and they will find that interesting. She has already been seen in Netflix films, so they already know her.”
Pig in a poke
Apparently Netflix really likes her, Tina notes. “Anyway, I don’t know if her life is special enough for the whole world to have that extra that you will look. I am sure that a second season will come from Yolanthe. It has already been ordered. I know that from sources close by.”
She continues: “The team is already busy, so yes, that is certainly. That is striking, because the first season has not yet started and if it is disappointing in terms of viewing figures, then they have bought a cat in the bag, but apparently they have a lot of confidence in it.”
