It is surprising that Igone de Jongh has now fallen into the arms of Ruud de Wild after her love debacle with Thijs Römer. “He must really have a golden cock or something,” he says.
Ruud de Wild appeared hand in hand with Igone de Jongh at some book presentation of Splinter Chabot. The ballet dancer’s love life is quite turbulent, because her ex-lover was none other than the controversial Thijs Römer. And now she is once again in the arms of a man who is known for being difficult.
Ladder sat
Although Ruud seeks attention himself by appearing hand in hand with Igone, he is annoyed that the show media are now reporting en masse about their alleged romance. “It’s something every week,” he complains in his show on NPO Radio 2. “Next week I’ll drive into a store completely drunk!”
What an incredibly lame response, says Story boss Guido den Aantrekker Show news. “I think it is such a shame that someone without humor is allowed to do such a beautiful radio program. It is typical Ruud de Wild. Let us not forget that he has had one relationship after another in recent years and has always spoken about it fairly freely.”
Minefield
It is not without reason that there is a magnifying glass on Ruud’s love life, according to Guido. “Every woman who comes into contact with him ends up in a kind of relational minefield. It all fails. He talks for ten.”
The magazine maker continues: “He also said: ‘We are in a kind of discovery phase’, but if you go to a premiere with a new woman, you have your photograph taken and you stand hand in hand, then yes, then of course the discovery phase is a bit over or you are playing with it.”
Red carpet
It is indeed laughable that Ruud complains about the media attention, says colleague Bart Ettekoven. “If the two of you consciously choose to go onto that red carpet, then you know that there will be a lot of questions.”
“If you then start shouting: ‘I don’t want to say anything about it’ and: ‘It’s private’, while two weeks before you talked in detail about your private life and your illness in Het Were 2 Fantastic Days… It’s not that it’s someone who, like Youp van ‘t Hek, shields his private life very much. It’s someone who shares enough about it and shows it.”
Strange combination
Private boss Evert Santegoeds cannot follow it. “People are a bit surprised, because: what kind of combination is this?! Yes, Igone de Jongh… You would wish her some luck, and whether that is possible with Ruud de Wild… He himself recently said in that program that no, because he is very difficult, he cheats, he has a fear of commitment. Well, good luck.”
He doesn’t understand Ruud’s reaction either, he continues in the podcast Strictly Private. “If you are performing such a play in front of the city theater of all places, you can be sure that it will set off many people’s tongues. That is indeed the case.”
Golden cock
Igone causes a lot of surprise on the socials. “The beautiful woman, the epitome of class and civilization. HOWEVER,” says Xinfluencer MiesBee about her choice for Ruud.
Ruud previously had a relationship with Olcay Gulsen. One Renske: “He must really have a golden cock or something. All those nice, beautiful, successful women.”
