The alleged new sweetheart of Sylvie Meis, a multimillionaire from Eindhoven named Teun Swinkels, is only 1.60 meters tall. This is evident from research by private boss Evert Santegoeds.
Sylvie Meis’ latest breakup has only just ended headlines or a new name is already circulating: this time Teun Swinkels is said to be in bed with the over-age influencer. Private boss Evert Santegoeds has put his research editorial team to work. “He is 1 meter 60, so that will be a nice set,” he says.
Two centimeters
Sylvie is 1.58 meters, so only two centimeters shorter than Teun. This allows them to look each other in the eye, but also lift the shopping bag together in an equal manner. So we’ll have fun going to Aldi together. “He has two children by the way,” Evert continues in the podcast Strictly Private.
The magazine maker continues: “He is said to be affiliated with the Bavaria group, so that might help a bit. It is a very large family, Swinkels, and they are doing very well in Brabant.”
Unreachable
We haven’t heard anything from Teun yet. “He keeps himself inaccessible to everything and everyone all day long. I find that a bit startling. Look, if you are linked to Sylvie, you are a successful businessman and you don’t feel like it at all, then you just say: ‘I don’t know where the story comes from, but that is not true at all.'”
Evert continues: “Everything but that. He just didn’t answer the phone and he doesn’t respond to emails, texts and whatever. The only thing Sylvie has done is that they no longer follow each other on Insta, so that trace needs to be erased a bit, I suspect.”
Rugby player
Co-host Jordi Versteegden finds Teun’s height particularly striking. “I was still thinking that you already know that he is 1 meter 60. You have already found that out.”
Evert: “Well, he plays polo and they are usually small men, because those horses have to be able to move, so you don’t put a rugby player behind them.”
Jetty
Normally, Sylvie always launches her new boyfriend on the beach of St. Tropez, under the watchful eye of a whole battalion of paparazzi. “That is always in the same week at the end of June, before the season really starts there. Sylvie is actually always sitting there on her own jetty.”
“She always sat there with Rafael van der Vaart, later with many other men and next time perhaps with Teun. Then we have to take a good lens with us,” Evert concludes, referring to Teun’s height.
