“Brave, vulnerable, strong and proud”: Monique supports candid documentary by André Hazes | showbiz

showbizThe documentary ‘Crossroads’, for which André Hazes has been followedin his sometimes rather turbulent life for the past two years, will appear onVideoland on October 20. The 28-year-old singer announced this on social mediatoday. “I started a battle with myself and did everything I could to get mylife back,” said Hazes. Monique and mom Rachel also show their support onInstagram.

Hazes has been followed for the past two years by a camera crew for theVideoland documentary ‘Crossroads’. He states that that time may have been”the most difficult period of his life”, but that he fought with himself andeventually managed to pick up his life. “I find it very exciting, but at thesame time can’t wait to finally share my true story with you,” said the singertoday.

What exactly will be shown in the documentary remains a surprise. It’sprobably partly about his addictions. Last month Hazes broke his media silenceand even announced his comeback. Hazes wrote to have sought professional help.“Because I needed it so much at the time. Just going all the way back tobasics in a search for myself. Find out who I really am, what I want in mylife and find out what makes me really happy (and what doesn’t). I’m coldturkey I stopped demolishing my body and I consciously opted for a long mediasilence.”

Troubled Period

Hazes took a break last year due to an emotional burnout. He went through anextremely troubled period after he left his girlfriend Monique Westenberg,with whom he has a son, for Sarah van Soelen. Eventually that short-livedromance also ended. Meanwhile, the wildest stories were circulating aboutHazes’ various addictions. He previously confirmed that he has been working onthat. In a photo from March this year, the artist was very emaciated.

André can count on support from a very unexpected quarter on his Instagrammessage. “Brave, vulnerable, strong and proud”, says ‘his’ Monique. His motherRachel also reacted with emotion. “I know better than anyone how deep you havegone. I am so incredibly proud of what you have overcome and how you back tolife.”
