Rob Goossens is constantly at the desk of RTL Boulevard to explain the dispute between Yvonne Coldeweijer and Talpa, but aren’t their ties a bit too close for that? “A hug!”
Conflicts of interest are the order of the day in the showbiz media: the world is small and everyone tries to keep each other’s friends. This is disastrous for the credibility of programs such as RTL Boulevard and Shownieuws. Until then, experts regularly appear at the desk with a double hat, but at least mention it.
Friendship
Rob Goossens has recently been regularly at the desk of RTL Boulevard to explain the conflict between Yvonne Coldeweijer and Talpa, but it remains unmentioned that he personally has a good relationship with the juice guzzler and her partner. According to Yvonne, she is friends with both Rob and his forgiving partner Veranika.
In fact, Rob almost always stands up for Yvonne in the media and recently he even made Eric de Munck, who resigned as editor-in-chief of her failed juice show on Net5, suspicious: “Is Yvonne really so impossible to work with? I can hardly imagine that. (…) Maybe he also wanted to be in the picture himself?”
Big hug
What is the status of the friendship between Yvonne and Rob in 2026? Well, all the best, concludes Telegraaf reporter Pepijn van den Brink. He was present at the lawsuit between Yvonne and Talpa. “We have to wait a while before we can enter the hall. Coldeweijer too,” he writes in the newspaper.
“When she notices the recently arrived RTL Boulevard reporter Rob Goossens, who is chatting with his reporter, she stands up. She gives him a ‘hug’, after which she looks at the reporter and says: ‘Not you.’ Then she turns around and rejoins the lawyer. The reporter has to earn the hug, that’s what it sounds like.”
Oops, there’s work to be done. Rob has certainly earned his hug as a loyal mascot…
