Wendy van Dijk gets a lot of trouble. According to RTL Boulevard expert Rob Goossens, she should have canceled the TV promotion for Ukraine. “I thought it was a bit embarrassing!”
There has been a lot of talk about the role of Wendy van Dijk during the TV action for Ukraine. It was initially announced that she would be reporting from the Polish-Ukrainian border, but after much commotion, that plan was called off. She could still be seen in the show on Monday, but then as a kind of raging reporter in the Netherlands.

TV connoisseur Rob Goossens did not like to watch, he sneezes in RTL Boulevard. “If I were Wendy van Dijk, I would have taken such a corona test strip and a red pen, I would have added a second line and then I would have said: ‘I can’t do it today, because I have corona.’”
So it would have been better for her to stay at home, according to the TV connoisseur. “I found it really a bit embarrassing. She couldn’t do much about that, because of course it started with that press release stating that she would go to the Polish-Ukrainian border, but in the end: what exactly was her added value?”

Wendy’s items really weren’t about anything, says Rob. “She drove to Nieuwegein and watched as a few bottles were thrown into a deposit machine… I think if she hadn’t gone driving and donated her petrol coupon, her contribution would have been greater.”
“And just to be clear, it’s not a criticism of Wendy, is it? She could have had a part too, but then they would have had to give her the role of Rob Kemps or put Rob and Wendy there together. This was really like: she won’t go to the border, but we have to give her something else.”
Uncomfortable
Rob expressed his criticism after an item in which Wendy was interviewed together with Chantal Janzen and Rob Kemps. She suddenly began to muse about her time on The Voice, much to the visible discomfort of her colleagues.
Wendy: “Well, I haven’t been in this studio for a long time, so I came in and then I thought: huuuu (sound, ed.), oh yeah. Yep… The Voice. Yes… You can hardly say that anymore, but it was true. So I did miss this studio, yes, for sure.”
About the hassle with the Polish-Ukrainian border, she said: “I had the idea to go to the Polish border with a lot of buses and a lot of materials, a kind of Hart in Aktie. That went wrong somewhere, so it became: ‘Wendy, Polish border, reporting.’ It went a bit wrong there, so that was a shame, but what was very clear was that at the moment we don’t need so much stuff, but mainly money.”
