“I always feel very responsible for everyone. I always want to take care of everyone, take care of everyone I love,” she told presenter Kefah Allush. Maasland acknowledges that life can be “very dark”. She found out that she could have those periods after the death of her then mother-in-law when Maasland herself was still young. “Dark, very dark it then became. Not wanting to live anymore. So concrete, yes.”
The presenter then solved it by thinking of things to do. “Away, away from it. At a certain point it became easier, because then I had a child. If you have something to live for, it’s not that difficult,” said the 48-year-old. “Apparently I don’t think I’m enough to live for. So I was very happy that I had such a little hummel in my life. It scared me too. Apparently I sometimes have that.”
