Why Brandsteder was admitted to rehab, his management doesn’t want to say. His manager says the presenter is “working on himself”. The Dutch presenter can currently be seen with our northern neighbors in the new season of ‘Expeditie Robinson’. It is not yet known when Rick will return to work.
Brandsteder, who also performed “Temptation Island” in the past with Annelien Coorevits, also has a lot on his record. In 2016, he was given a suspended one-week jail sentence for assault. Rick, the son of TV celebrity Ron Brandsteeder, punched someone several times in the face after being provoked by the victim. It happened after the presenter said that he had accidentally pushed in front of the toilet. The broadcaster also had to pay a fine of 750 euros and 250 euros in compensation for the incident.
In addition, Rick also approached the judiciary in 2007, 2008 and 2011. In 2007 he fought in a snack bar, in 2008 he got into a fight with a number of people at a party after party of the atmospheric group De Toppers and in 2011 he was arrested on charges of assault at the beginning of the year. This earned him community service.
