Borsato Family to Attend Court Thursday as Trial Continues
UTRECHT, Netherlands โ – Leontine Ruiters and her โchildren are expectedโ to attend Marco Borsato’s trial in Utrecht on Thursday, following his appearance in court today with legal counsel. While the family was not present for the initial proceedings, sourcesโฃ indicate a strong likelihood โคof their attendance as the defense presents its case.
Borsato arrived at the Utrecht court accompanied by lawyers Peterโ en Marieke Knoops. โDespite a โขpublic display of support in the past, Ruiters and their children did not join him today. Presenter Tooskeโค ragas noted the โคabsence on Show News, stating, โข”Hisโ family was not there and I thought that was striking.”
Entertainment reporter evert Santegoeds speculated the family may have wanted to observe the initial arguments before attending. “I โคcan also imagine Leontine,โค who always thought: I was never โฃthere, โคwhy should I be there now,” Santegoedsโ said. “the children have also made no secret of their support for their father.”
Santegoeds believes Thursday’s proceedings, focused on the defense’s arguments, will be a more suitable time for the family to offer support. โฃ”They have always supported him so much that I think theyโ can give him some support โagain and then Thursday would beโ an excellent moment.”
Demonstrations of support from โBorsato’s children have also appeared on social media. Daughter Jada posted โa photo of a burning candle alongside an angel statue – imagery frequently enough associatedโ with โcalmness and spiritual connection – while her brother shared a heart emoji. โข
“Well, โthat’s tough forโ them too,” Ragasโ acknowledged.
The trial continues Thursday with the presentation of โthe defense’s case.
