Sylvie Meis is happy in love again after her divorce from Niclas Castello. The presenter confirmed her relationship with businessman Wim Beelen last month. Who is the Amsterdam multi-millionaire who, according to gossip magazines, is still registered at the address of his ex-wife?
“My love,” 45-year-old Meis wrote last month with a photo with Beelen. The couple was previously spotted together on his yacht near Mallorca.
The two met on a terrace last summer. “She didn’t even know who I was,” 48-year-old Beelen said this week Het Financieel Dagblad. The encounter stays with him. “I kept thinking about it in the days that followed. I am single. She is single. Wow,” said the businessman, who, according to business magazine Quote has an estimated capital of 155 million euros.
‘Do you have to explain to your children that you are dating Sylvie Meis’
Beelen debunks the prejudices that Meis only likes rich men. “We are equal. She has really built her own business, just like me.”
The business Beelen is talking about is the demolition company that he started when he was seventeen. Beelen.nl demolishes buildings and recycles materials. The company grew into the sixteenth largest demolition company in the world. In 2020, he sold his company and entered real estate.
Beelen has to get used to publicity
Dating Meis comes with a lot of publicity. Beelen can’t get used to that yet. “Ideally you want to get to know each other in peace. But the publicity forces you to accelerate. You suddenly have to explain to everyone that you are dating. Also to your children, to your ex-wife. And everyone agrees. what of.”
After Meis confirms her relationship with Beelen, the entrepreneur appears negatively in the news. For example, gossip vlogger Yvonne Coldeweijer writes that years ago he would have angrily kicked in the door of an office building because of a business dispute.
Story writes that Beelen has not been single for long and is still registered at the same address as his ex-wife. A photo published in the magazine shows both his and her names on the nameplate next to the doorbell.
He does not want to respond to this and tells the weekly that he is very concerned about his privacy. “I understand that certain news items score well, but I am not a public figure. I don’t feel like playing cat and mouse.” His ex-wife Ellen also does not want to comment on the rumors.
Meis finds dating as a public person difficult
Meis tells the German newspaper in August The Wester that it’s harder for her to date. “You never know if people will react differently, because they may not dare at first,” says Sylvie. “When you’re flirting with someone and it’s so obvious that they know who you are, you often wonder if that’s the only reason they’re interested.”
In February of this year, Meis announced that she and her husband Niclas Castello were separating after 2.5 years. She said in a statement that their lives are too different for a future together.
Meis was previously married to footballer Rafael van der Vaart for eight years, whom she divorced in 2013. Together they have a son, Damián. Meis’ new friend is already well liked by Rafael van der Vaart. “Estavana (Polman, Van der Vaart’s girlfriend, ed.) and I are very happy for them. He is really a top guy,” the former professional footballer said. RTL Boulevard.
