The departure of Marieke Elsinga as presenter of RTL Boulevard had been in the air for a while, but she made the decision. Without prior notice, she announced at the end of the broadcast last night that she will stop immediately. The reason? She is bored and would like to make other programs.

Mary abruptly gone

Marieke surprised the viewer. “This was RTL Boulevard for tonight. It was also my very last RTL Boulevard. I’ve decided to stop. I am very sorry, but I also really like to make other programs at RTL and I also do the morning show at Qmusic, so making other programs just doesn’t always work out.”

Dan: “So I’m going to spread my wings and then I can focus on other TV programs again. I have to say: it is really with a heavy heart that I leave, because I have really enjoyed being here for five years and I have great colleagues here behind the desk, but of course also behind the scenes.”

‘We’re going to miss you!’

Colleague Rob Goossens: “We are going to miss you.”

And Luuk Ikink: “Amazing. We are really going to miss you. We have always stood at the desk with such pleasure and confidence. With very nice and also very terrible broadcasts. We had such a lovely time. We will miss you terribly, but wish you the very best for the rest of your career.”

Marieke: “Come to a maternity visit when the time comes at some point!”
