Beau van Erven Dorens is under considerable fire for his completely uncritical interview with Gordon. “Not a single critical question. This really disappoints me a bit,” he said.
Gordon’s big comeback interview is yet another PR blunder by the entertainer. Instead of taking matters into his own hands and starting 2024 with a clean slate, he decides to portray his ex-boyfriend Gavin Rozario as a schizophrenic in a winter special by Beau van Erven Dorens. Just like his brother who committed suicide.
Schizophrenia
Incredibly low, of course, to bring in such a family tragedy, purely and simply to spite your ex, but what does Beau say? Literally in Casa di Beau: “But that would go some way to explaining why he became someone else overnight. Because that happened after you were asked to marry.”
At the same time, it is of course also quite funny that Gordon can only think of a psychological disorder as a reason to break up with him. “I don’t understand why he did it,” he complains about the breakup. And Beau fully agrees: “That seems the most frustrating to me.”
Noise in Tokyo
Well, why would Gavin have broken up with him after that trip to Tokyo? Maybe because Gordon completely abused him again on the trip there? During a stopover, Gavin forgot his passport on the plane: “He started screaming like crazy. That I had ruined his entire trip and that this incident also ruined it for us together.”
It could be that this was the last straw for Gavin, after Goor’s previous acute mood swings. Gavin said about this in the Privé: “He once asked if I wanted to taste his food. I said no because it would be way too spicy for me. He got very angry about that. He screamed that I had ruined his day. ‘Why don’t you want to taste something?’”
‘Disappoints me’
Beau has undoubtedly read that interview with Gavin, but uncritically deflates Gordon. “Not a single critical question from Beau, I’m a bit disappointed,” says Victor Hopman, who makes a podcast about television, on X. “I don’t watch it that often, but I think this is a lame, but empty conversation.”
TV journalist Jef Willemsen is not surprised. “Help me, in which episode of Isola/Casa di Beau were really critical questions asked or hard notes were cracked? Guests enjoy a warm bath… especially with these icy temperatures. (…) If you thought Linda’s Summer Week was safe and pre-produced fun, here comes Beau.”
Bavarois
Beau does not provide any relevant content with this program, Jef continues. “There’s nothing wrong with that if you like it, it’s well put together but it’s just as filling and sweet as a plate of raspberry bavarois (without seeds!).”
Housing market expert Martine de Ridder believes that Beau should have intervened at least once. “Since when is it okay to share medical conditions of (deceased) people and to insinuate a diagnosis as a non-physician? Do I watch too few juice channels, or do I read too little Private that this is now normal? Isn’t this going way too far?!”
Victor: “Yes, I thought that was really low.”
For the bus
Lianne van Veen, a professional TV viewer, is disappointed. “Gordon was doing so well here and is now throwing everything and everyone under the bus and handing out diagnoses. Really, terrible, it’s bound to happen that your ex just says that about you, even on TV. And Beau doesn’t ask any questions at all, even though all those conversations have been published.”
Story journalist Nick Dijkman thinks that entire episode of Casa di Beau should never have been broadcast. “Beau went to Italy with two RTL friends (Gordon and Ruben traveled together, so there was little to say to each other on the spot) and Maurice Steijn. No nice conversations, but we had fun. No TV for the viewer.”
