Yvonne Coldeweijer has won her lawsuit against Talpa. John de Mol’s media company must simply continue to pay her until the contract worth nine thousand euros (!) has expired.
What a painful defeat for Talpa: John de Mol’s media company has been reprimanded severely by the judge for withholding Yvonne Coldeweijer’s wages. Her program De Juice failed during the preparations, but according to the judge, Talpa could not prove that Yvonne would be impossible to work with.
Yvonne on payroll
Talpa had not built up a file against Yvonne at all and so she remains on the payroll. She will receive a total of nine thousand euros paid into her account by John’s club until September 1, 2027.
One big disadvantage for Yvonne: until then she is no longer allowed to juice through her own juice channel. And in a week in which she once again turned the entire showbiz upside down with scoops about Yves Berendse’s breakup, spicy gossip about Jutta Leerdam’s relationship crisis and an alleged affair of Monica Geuze and Ruben Nicolai.
News A-stars
The AD was impressed by Yvonne’s scoops. ‘Just before the ruling in the case against Talpa, Yvonne Coldeweijer spreads news about A-stars’, was the headline in the newspaper yesterday. “For a moment it seemed that Coldeweijer was no longer the great pest of the well-known Netherlands.”
Now Yvonne showed that she is back in full swing, according to the newspaper. “That celebrities who skate crookedly have to anxiously renew their Instagram page again. And the lawsuit may have only contributed to that comeback with full attention.”
Short-lived
So Yvonne’s juice comeback was short-lived. If Talpa does not offer her another platform, for example a spot at the Shownieuws desk, her juice scoops will remain in the bottom drawer of the juice stall until September 1, 2026. Nevertheless, she leaves it on The Telegraph know to be ‘very happy’.
John de Mol should relax for a moment, says media journalist Mark Koster, who was also involved with De Juice. “Suddenly the love is over between the showbiz anarchist and the media innovator. I would say: shake hands and make it happen,” he writes in his column in the same newspaper.
