Yesterday, Jack van Gelder was absent at the Oranjezondag for the second time in a short time. Two weeks ago it had to do with health problems. Does that play again?
If one of today’s men is not sitting at the table, then one of his colleagues says something about it. How different Hélène Hendriks tackles that: For the second time in a short time, she suddenly had no Jack van Gelder Jack last night, and just like the last time she was completely silent about that.
For first in 40 years
Hélène silent the first time – that was two weeks ago – because she thought it was too private for Jack. He turned out to have problems with his health later.
Jack said a week ago: “I am doing very well, but last week I suddenly didn’t feel well. I had popping headache and I think: then it is not good to sit at the table here, because it was a very cheerful broadcast. It actually never happened in 40 years or something.”
Where is Jack now?
Now, a week later, Jack is missing again. “I notice that Raymond Mens today (again) Jack van Gelder replaces the Oranjezomer. What could be the reason for that? It is the second time in a short time,” says one Yako on X.
Ronald: “Again no Jack van Gelder? Did he become too popular?”
Horrible show
Many loyal viewers miss Jack. “Terrible broadcast, where is Jack van Gelder? That Merel Ek started to believe too much in himself. So it could no longer be striking,” says Eddy.
And Linda: “Where is Jack van Gelder? That new (Mark Koster, ed.) Is nothing at all! Boring !!”
De Nar: “Why is Jack van Gelder not present? And why is this not communicated again?”
Secrecy
Jennie thinks it is a shame that VI and Hélène are getting more and more mysterious towards their own audience. “They always have a lot of criticism of other programs, but now they themselves are open to the absence of Jack van Gelder and respond to the false allegations on Twitter to Wierd Duk, by that woman of Gijp.”
She doesn’t think it’s possible: “Where is Jack van Gelder ??? Why is that not said ???”
“I’m sick”
It is now clear what is going on with Jack. When asked, he confirms that he could not come to Hélène’s studio last night.
The opinion maker says to this site: “I have been sick for a few days.”
