Television presenter Catherine Keyl and Omroep MAX director Jan Slagter sat opposite each other on Renze Klamer’s talkshow, nearly two years after a heated on-air dispute, mediacourant.nl reported.
The pair clashed in January of last year when Keyl accused Slagter of spreading falsehoods on Wilfred Genee’s radioshow. Slagter had claimed she never approached him with television proposals, while Keyl maintained she had sent him multiple text messages about potential shows.
Klamer brought up the previous clash while discussing the mediaweek on his program. Keyl and Slagter confirmed they had since shared a lunch paid for by Keyl, but Klamer insisted on showing footage of the original argument.
“Nee, dat hoeft niet,” Slagter said.
“Heb je daar beelden van?! Hahaha,” Keyl said.
Despite Slagter’s protests, Klamer played the segment for studio guests and viewers. RTL Boulevard reporter Aran Bade observed that the subsequent lunch must have been interesting.
“Dat was een heel gezellige lunch,” Slagter said.
“Het heel gezellig. Ja hoor! Jazeker,” Keyl said.
