Nicol Kremers does not think it is appropriate that John de Mol has simply remained behind his channel star Peter Gillis despite everything. “They have certainly been made aware of what happened.”
Reality star Nicol Kremers has reported abuse by Peter Gillis to the police. The case has been going on for much longer, because the OM had already decided to prosecute Peter for this fact anyway. For some time now there has been pressure on SBS 6 and channel owner John de Mol to stop keeping this holiday park villain in the saddle.
Small carrot
Nicol talks in the latest episode of Gossip Talk that she was physically and mentally abused by Peter for four and a half years. “You roll in it. It’s a kind of situation where you roll in and can’t get out.”
Their relationship was platonic at one point, says Nicol, who casually remarks that they hadn’t had sex in a year. Did she miss that? “He always calls himself that everything is very big, but that is certainly not big,” she says, pointing to Peter’s carrot.
Very weird
What does Nicol think about John keeping her ex on the tube for so long? “I also find it a strange sensation, but apparently money does more than people’s feelings these days. In the end, justice will prevail. That will certainly happen.”
Did Talpa already know about the abuse? “They have certainly been informed of that.”
For at least a year? “Yes.”
What did Talpa say?
What did Talpa say about that? “Exactly nothing. Nothing that helped me anyway. (…) That they do not get involved in personal matters.”
Presenter Jan Roos: “So John de Mol facilitates someone who abuses women? Can’t we say that?”
Nicol: “You can certainly say that indirectly, yes.”
Jan: “So you can confirm that. So John de Mol should be ashamed of himself. Mister gingerbread man has a moral compass in his pocket that is broken very quickly if he can earn a living with it.”
‘Producer knew’
Producer Concept Street, who also collaborates with André van Duin, among others, also knew about it, according to Nicol. “I did discuss things with production. Absolute.”
She says she also asked for help, but according to her, all they did was by filming. Exactly what they are still doing now…
Stabbed in the face
Nicol also shows a bizarre message that Peter sent her after the incident in which GossipPraat star Dennis Schouten was stabbed in the face. Nicol: “It said: ‘Dear, he goes xx.’ I really hated that. When I got it, I didn’t respond either. I think he means that he really hates you.”
Dennis: “Yes, but ‘he goes’? I wasn’t dead then, but that was the stake?”
Nicol: “I think that was the approach, but I really thought it was just so bizarre.”
Jan: “Does that imply that he may have been the client?”
Nicol: “I have no idea. I hope not for him.”
