“I see Elias more, because I form a family with his mother Anouk,” the singer-songwriter explains. The singer and Anouk, his ex-girlfriend when the pregnancy was announced, but now his fiancée, will soon be living together. Before this, they have always had a lat relationship. “She lives around the corner from me and we are always together. Tuesday is Dad’s Day.”
Out of respect for the other mothers, he does not want to say too much. “When the kids are older, hopefully we build a bond more easily,” he continues. “It remains a difficult situation, but I believe that love will eventually find its way. Fortunately, all the kids are doing very well and I love them very much.”
Douwe proposes to his Anouk last December during a big party in honor of his thirtieth birthday. The love the singer feels for her is ‘pure and boundless’. “I had an intense and wild life for a number of years. With Anouk it was the first time that a person did not close the door after I cheated and that is so endearing,” he expresses himself in love.
“I realize that she deserves better than me cheating on her. At a certain point it is enough. I quickly fell in love with Anouk because of her caring. She works with severely mentally disabled people. I think that is wonderful. And she is a good mother.”
