Natasja Froger Addresses Relationship with René Froger, Claims She Didn’t Know He Was Married
Natasja Froger is facing scrutiny over her account of how her relationship with singer René Froger began. The discussion unfolded during a recent appearance on the SBS 6 show, sparking a reaction from media personality Yvonne Coldeweijer.
According to reports, Froger detailed her initial encounter with René, explaining, “I honestly didn’t know he was married. And I’ll tell you, if I had known, probably the same thing would have happened.” She described an immediate connection, noting their shared laughter and a quick series of flights that brought them together.
The timeline, as Natasja recalls, involved a chance meeting while working as a flight attendant and purser for KLM Cityhopper and Martinair. “I’m getting on board and who’s boarding with his wife and child?” she recounted. René reportedly approached her in the galley, apologizing and stating, “O, sorry, I thought you knew. Yes, this wasn’t the intention, this happened to us.” Natasja responded with a dismissive, “What happened in Athens, stays in Athens,” attempting to downplay the initial encounter.
However, the “fling” quickly evolved into a deeper relationship. This account has drawn criticism, particularly from Yvonne Coldeweijer, who reportedly told Natasja, “He left his two children for you!” Mediacourant.nl reports.
The unfolding story comes as Natasja, Ernst Daniël Smid, and Edino van Dorsten appear on a new SBS 6 show featuring celebrity personal stories. The show has already generated buzz, with a preview clip circulating online. YouTube
Meanwhile, René Froger’s son, Maxim Froger, recently opened up about his strained relationship with his parents, claiming they were often absent during his childhood. Showblad.nl reports that Maxim spoke candidly about this in a Christmas interview with Weekend magazine.
The revelations add another layer to the complex family dynamics surrounding the Froger name, a prominent fixture in Dutch entertainment.
