Humberto Tan did not receive baby photos from his colleague Eva Jinek. He raises his eyebrows when table guest Coks Donders appears to have had one. “Shame!”
You may wonder what exactly went wrong, but one thing is clear: Eva Jinek never really became an RTL 4 face, despite her four years at the channel. She had not even informed her talk show colleagues about her impending return to the NPO. She seems to be pissed that she had to share her editing with them.
Baby news
Eva announced on Instagram yesterday that she gave birth to her daughter on Sunday. “Our own Sunday child has arrived! She was born on September 3: Salo Leonora Van der Voorn. Indescribably sweet, we all want to eat her.”
Despite the internal struggles, Humberto Tan decided yesterday to open his broadcast with it. “We’ll go to the news first. Colleague Eva Jinek has given birth to her second child. On Instagram she writes: ‘Our own Sunday child.’ She was born on September 3. ‘Indescribably sweet, we all want to eat her.’ Ah!”
Coks knows Eva
Then Humberto turns to his dinner guest Coks Donders, historian and Americanist. “On behalf of all of us, Eva, congratulations. I think you, Coks, do too. You worked with her a lot and for a long time.”
Coks agrees: “Certainly. Yes, no, absolutely. And all babies are sweet, but the moment a very sweet colleague also gives birth to such a sweet baby… Yes, we were all on a pink cloud too. I’ve seen more photos. It all adds up. So sweet.”
‘Had nothing’
Then Humberto confesses that, unlike Coks, he has not heard anything from Eva. “Oh yeah? Then again, I don’t. Shame.”
Yet another proof that Eva did have colleagues at RTL 4, but actually didn’t care about them at all. One stroke of luck: she will probably no longer receive an invitation to RTL’s upcoming Christmas drinks.
Patty raved
RTL Boulevard, which does not have a good relationship with Eva, had a short closing item yesterday about the baby news. Shownieuws did make a big splash in the opening. Patty Brard was acting very hysterical there. “She gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Truly a beautiful girl. It is a beautiful photo of a lovely girl in a lovely blanket.”
The gender of Eva’s child has remained a secret all this time. “Her big brother Pax, 5, also knew it,” Patty says. “But he’s just as good at keeping his mouth shut as Eva is about her contracts, I think, so he gets that from mom. He really didn’t say anything! I had already passed my mouth on the first ultrasound!”
