The fact that Manon sets the alarm at six and then snoozes for an hour is not the only point where things sometimes clash between the avid stylist and the thoughtful singer. “What we really had to learn is to talk things out,” says Manon. “At my house, we used to have great discussions at the table and everything was talked to the bottom. So I wanted that with Guus if something wasn’t quite right. Because why would you sweep that under the carpet? then evasive maneuvers, sometimes literally walked away. “
Although the singer does not shy away from an argument these days, it does not always run smoothly. “So we crackle now and then. I think that’s only healthy. It doesn’t detract from our love,” says Manon. Guus: “No, because it is unconditional.”

The fact that Guus has four children from his previous marriage to Valérie is no problem for the couple. According to Manon, things are going very well. “You also have four super cute, spontaneous, cool kids. I often get the comment:” Four children, how handsome! ” While I find it admirable how they opened themselves up to me. We also took it easy, waited for them to ask themselves: “Hey, when will Manon come for dinner?” And then: “When will she come again?” I don’t interfere with the upbringing either, because they already have a mother. “
