TVGoedele Liekens (58) is back. Next year she can be seen again on TV where she will present ‘The Bachelor’. In it, Fabrizio Tzinaridis, known from ‘Temptation Island’, goes in search of true love. The ex-Miss Belgium is also back at work in parliament. This puts an end to the battle against skin cancer that she was confronted with last year.

In ‘De Bachelor’ on Play4, Goedele will mainly be the listening ear of Fabrizio and the candidates. It is her first TV assignment after being diagnosed with stage 3 skin cancer last year. Goedele took some gas back, but now the pedal seems to have been pressed again. By being on set again, I give them plenty of stimulation and hopefully things will only get better in the coming days. So it’s great to be able to do this again. To be able to fully dedicate myself to a program again with a team. Working hard, combining different jobs, I’ve been doing that all my life. It’s a bit of therapy, yes,” she tells Het Nieuwsblad.

Not like Tinder
As a sexologist, Goede is ideally suited to present ‘The Bachelor’. She is also convinced that Fabrizio can meet his true love there. “Why wouldn’t that be possible? You can’t just stare at that camera crew. How many couples do not arise during a week’s skiing holiday? If Fabrizio is looking for a real connection, as he claims, this is just the place to spark a spark. He is forced to actually speak to those girls. Not like Tinder, where you can swipe someone to the left because “she looks a little weird in the photo.” We sometimes give up on someone so quickly simply because we don’t want to settle for anything less than perfect. But there is no such thing as ‘perfect’.”

Confronting
Goedele does not yet dare to say that the cancer is a thing of the past. “Here and now. Soon not anymore, because every four months I have to have an MRI scan. Such a tunnel, you know? The last one is just over and the result was good. So right now I’m not into that at all. But every time the next appointment lurks around the corner, I get a little restless. Quite confronting.”
