From boarding school girl to top Flemish idol: Natalia through the years | THIS WEEK IN DAY ALL

A class photo from when Natalia (42) was still four: cheerful and mischievous, even then.

Natalia was 22 when she impressed all of Flanders in ‘Idol’. She didn’t win the talent show, but her career was launched.

With her dance partner Pascal Maassen in the first season of ‘Sterren Op De Dansvloer’. Here too, Natalia just missed the victory: she came second, after Dina Tersago.

Natalia was able to attract international stars several times for a joint concert series in the Sportpaleis. Here with Shaggy and the ladies of En Vogue.

With the exception of the third season, Natalia has been a coach in ‘The Voice Van Vlaanderen’ for eleven years. In the first season, she had straight blond hair.

Also in the first years of ‘The Voice Kids’, Natalia – here with wild red curls – coached a team of singers.

Natalia was part of the ‘all star’ season of ‘Liefde Voor Muziek’ in 2017, alongside Clouseau, Bart Peeters and Isabelle A.

Natalia was also a coach in ‘The Voice’ last fall. Winner Louise came from her team. Below: with friend Frederik, daughter Bobbi-Loua and son Apollo.
