Peter van der Vorst about alleged abuses The voice: ‘We should and wanted to know this’ | Stars

When Beau van Erven Dorens asked what he would have done if they had known about the app incident of band leader Jeroen Rietbergen, mentioned earlier by John de Mol, Peter answers: “If we had known that the band leader of The Voice sends very inappropriate apps to candidates, he would have been fired with immediate effect.” He also says: “The warning from John (de Mol, ed.) to Rietbergen has never been reported to us.” He also said that he was irritated, just like Beau, by what was said by John de Mol. For example, whether there was a dominant position between Rietbergen and the candidates. “I found a number of statements very unfortunate,” says Peter.

About the email RTL received from the editors of Angry, says Peter: “Our stomachs were already turning with the e-mail. When watching Angry we realized: this happened to us on our transmitter. We broadcast it and we do feel responsible. We should and wanted to know this. I think that’s important to say.”

Although various people, including lawyer Korver, question the independent investigation by the Van Doorne law firm, which is being carried out on behalf of producer ITV, Peter van der Vorst says he has every confidence in it. “Nobody has an interest in a bad investigation being done.”

I’m not going to talk about that either. But there will have to be conversations.”

Peter emphasizes that the channel wants to do its best to prevent this from ever happening to a program again. “We want to do everything we can to prevent this from happening in the future. This is a hell that no one should experience anymore.”
