Son Paul de Leeuw angry: 'Jokes at my expense'

29 October 2017

Television viewers have been used to Paul de Leeuw chasing laughter over the back of others for years , but in private this is less appreciated. His son has now addressed him about this. The BNNVARA star confesses this in his column in the AD. The Lion was arguing with his son for a day and a half. “ Not a nice word is said anymore. Suddenly the word comes out: he is not happy. That has to do with me. He says he's done with some of the jokes I make. “

De Leeuw's drive to score is not appreciated by his son. " Why? Because it is always at his expense. I still defend that it is not true at all. And that I also see him laughing at my jokes. Yes, he likes them if they are not at his expense. But the jokes I make about him and what others laugh about make him unhappy . ”

De Leeuw first took the criticism of his son personally. " It's quiet at the table and the first thing I think is: more people who don't like me anymore ."

“ I soon realize that I don't want him to be unhappy about things I say. And I promise to pay attention and hold back . ”

Although it is difficult as a blatant, De Leeuw has managed to date 'not to joke at the expense of the children'.
