Earlier this week, Dutch media announced that Patty Brard stopped her work as an entertainment news expert on RTL 4's talk show "RTL Late Night Met Twan Huys". Since late November 2018, she has been discussing the latest media and showbiz news from the Netherlands and abroad in a segment of the program called "De Week Van Patty" every Friday evening.
The broadcast of RTL Late Night (including the final "Week van Patty") drew 583.000 viewers (market share: 17.5%) on February 8th. Click here to watch it. The diva talked about Radio DJ Edwin Evers, the comeback of old successful TV formats ("Lotto Weekend Miljonairs" (Dutch version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?", "Vakantieman" and "De Zwakste Schakel" (Dutch version of "The Weakest Link"), the Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle and NPO 3's comedy series "De Luizenmoeder". Moreover, the talk show caused controversy because during the broadcast, Twan Huys and Patty Brard showed a young and attractive Australian man in the audience who was supposed to be "viral on social media". Actually, social networks experts proved that this good looking gentleman did not cause a sensation on the internet.
Fake news: this charming young man never went viral
La Brard's collaboration on RTL Late Night was supposed to be short-lived. "I was meant to appear seven times on this TV program," Patty told Dutch newspaper AD. "So I remain a freelancer," she added. It means that the former Luv' singer is free to do whatever she wants on any TV channel. On February 12th, she took everybody by surprise when she replaced Albert Verlinde on SBS 6's infotainment program "6 inside" (which only attracted 133.000 viewers (market share: 3.4%). This replacement is supposed to be a one-off at the moment. It is Patty's comeback on SBS more than a year after her farewell to "Shownieuws" (see news posted on September 1st, 2017).

Last month, Miss Brard told that she was about to sign a 3-year deal with RTL Nederland. But this news was rapidly refuted (see article posted on January 23rd, 2019).
Two days ago, several news websites revealed that Patty was in negotiation with Talpa TV (which owns SBS 6, NET 5, Veronica and SBS 9). But nothing has been confirmed yet.
One thing is sure: soon the larger than life TV personality will appear on RTL 5's reality show "Hotter Than My Daughter". Moreover, she has recently taken part in the taping of the new season of BNNVARA's program "Vier Handen Op Een Buik". Last but not least: Patty will fly to Thailand this weekend for the taping of the TV show "Expeditie Schoonmoeder" on TLC.
