Marco Borsato’s children are much less able to use fake privileges due to his alleged misconduct. “My brother works hard. He vacuum seals spare ribs.”
There is, especially from Shownieuws, intense compassion for the children of Marco Borsato. Most celebrity children can do all kinds of fun things in the media thanks to their well-known surname, but the Borsato kids now have to take on all kinds of regular jobs to make ends meet.
Factory work
Luca Borsato, who is trying to become a singer just like Dad, narrates 30 Minutes Raw that his brother Senna just does factory work. “I think Senna is also just a really hard worker at the moment. He rolls up his sleeves at work every day at 7 am. I think he works for a company where he has to vacuum-pack spare ribs.”
So-called nepobabies are not used to that at all. “That’s really, really a job. And he has been doing this for a year and a half, every day, getting up very early. Senna is not currently doing his dream job, but is just trying really hard to make something of it every day. He currently lives with my mother.”
Sister Jada
And what about sister Jada Borsato? She was in Good Times Bad Times for a while. “My sister, who lives in Amsterdam, is still with my mother a lot, but she lives in Amsterdam and does her own thing and also tries to get her career off the ground. And he is doing very well with that and is thinking very well on his way.”
Luca himself then? “I also do some things. I am a driver for a catering company. I do that because I really enjoy it and also because it is necessary, because otherwise I wouldn’t earn anything. But yes, I am very busy trying to turn my hobby into my job. And that is more difficult than I thought.”
Beautiful journey
Ultimately, the intention is that Luca can stop working as a driver and start singing full-time. “It is a beautiful journey that I will hopefully look back on in a few years and think: yes, I am glad I made that choice then.”
All in all, it takes some getting used to after their spoiled childhood. “Yes, of course we haven’t had much to complain about from our upbringing in the past. My father’s success was there and we could always go on holiday. I think in the beginning that’s your normal, or your own normal.”
100,000 people
Hopefully his career will continue to improve, Luca muses. “I really hope that my music can reach as many people as possible and that it can mean something to many people. Whether it is for 100,000 people per month on Spotify or whether it is for millions… Well, in essence it does not matter.”
He concludes: “Look, if I want to have a career to make a living from this, then it ultimately has to be a certain number, yes… It has to be a success in some form. But that has not necessarily always been my goal.”
