In a candid interview with De Telegraaf , the 46-year-old host confirmed that she and her partner Michiel Teeling have definitively crossed their wedding plans off the list. Her verdict? "Het gaat nooit gebeuren" — it's never going to happen . If you're catching up on this story and wondering who the couple behind the headline is, their love story has been one of Dutch showbiz's sweetest for years.
