Quinty Trustfull Reflects on Sibling Rivalry and Bond with Sister Delphine: A ‘Yin and Yang’ Journey

Quinty explains that she and her sister are ‘completely opposite’ in character. “Yin and yang are not important. She keeps track of things, I dive into something immediately. She likes peace and quiet, I like chaos. Although I like things neat and tidy, Delphine doesn’t care about that.” do.”

In the past, the sisters could ‘clash a bit’. “And then I express myself carefully. I remember an argument, I don’t know what it was about, where emotions were running high.”

“I could be a brat and I knew exactly how to get my sister in trouble,” Quinty admits. “That worked very well that afternoon. So much so that she threw a stool at me out of anger and powerlessness. Blue Ikea stool. (…) I see that thing coming towards me, bend down flat and… My John Travolta mirror, completely destroyed.”

Fortunately, the girls were not hurt and they smiled and despite the argument, Quinty and Delphine ‘loved each other very much’. “Over the years we grew more and more together.” Especially when they lost their father and mother. “Perhaps the death of our parents contributed to this. Suddenly we were both orphans, not parents anymore, just Fien and I. We have also experienced so many beautiful things, things that no one else understands. What we have is unbelievable.”
