Merel Ek (30), the political reporter of Hart van Nederland and today Inside, provides a major discussion. There are people who doubt her age. “She is actually 53.”
It was a sweat for Merel Ek for a while: her boss Johan Derksen had indicated that she could not guarantee her position at today during her childbirth and pregnancy leave. If someone would come who is better, then that person could stay in place, according to the VI-snor. Now they have put Hannah Warnar forward.
By 50
Anyway: Merel and her new beloved celebrate their new baby happiness at home. She gave birth to her first child and that was also reported Nu.nlwhere the visitors ended up in an extremely remarkable discussion.
Merel’s age has hijacked the debate there, because is she really 30 years as she claims? “Isn’t she already around 50? People seem to start children later. Congratulations !! 🥳,” says one Dennis critically.
Own body
Moes believes that Dennis should not interfere with that. “Although she would be around 50, is still her own body and the decision of her and her partner.”
Rich would find quite young for children for 30 years. “A bit of the old head indeed, but with 30 the first child is fairly early, the children may be out of the house again at the age of 50.”
Throws
What a digital village, one Ria thinks. “She may seem like 50, but she is thirty. Now request a child benefit, the diapers were on offer and quickly turn out the congratulation box. And get rompers from the Zeeman.”
Dobe does not understand that people question Merels age. “It is literally in the first sentence of the article that she is thirty years. Yet it is special that people do not read the article and yet respond.”
53 years
One Rich thinks Merel is older than she claims. “Maybe people can’t believe it that she’s 30. There has been whispering for a long time that she is actually 53.”
What a surreal comments, one Jonathan thinks. “If she looks like 50, then I am around 90 or so? She just looks like a standard woman from early 30?”
I think
Joris also participates in the discussion. He says: “Well, she is just a little nicer than ‘the standard woman of early 30’, I think it is up to the women around me …”
One Van Kampwijk gives everyone clarity: “Google says that Merel Ek was born in 1995. That means she is 30 years old (or rather young).”
