Netherlands thrilled: New Prime Minister and first First Gentleman!
On November 1, 2025, an exciting political change took place in the Netherlands. Rob Jetten, a 38-year-old left-liberal politician, has been elected as the new Prime Minister. In a historic moment, he will have a “First Gentleman” at his side: Nicolás Keenan, 28 years old, a professional hockey player who began his sporting career in Buenos Aires.
Keenan, proud of his partner's election victory, had a long election day that ended with the announcement of Jetten's victory at 9 p.m. “We celebrated until late into the night,” he says enthusiastically. But despite the new role, Keenan doesn't think his everyday life will change much; Training and hockey are still on his agenda. After all, he is part of the professional club HC Klein Zwitserland and enjoyed success with the Argentine national team, including participation in the Olympic Games in Tokyo and Paris.
An unexpected meeting
The path that brought Jetten and Keenan together is also complex. They met by chance in the supermarket when Jetten was temporarily relocated during the farmers' protests. In an open relationship, they fought together against homophobic reports that affected Jetten during the election campaign. He spoke several times about his love for Keenan and often seemed very happy.
In the spring of this year, Jetten proposed to Keenan, which was accepted. The two now plan to crown their love with a wedding, which for many in the Netherlands represents a positive signal of acceptance and diversity.
With a look at the media
Although Dyrdek has not yet responded to the cancellation, the show will remain available in recorded form on MTV until 2026. It is a technological change in snack entertainment that is intended to bring a breath of fresh air into the program.
Inspiring examples from the world of sports
Another exciting name being discussed on relevant platforms is Sara Michelle Winter, a former Miss Canada and professional golfer. With her large following on social media, she is pursuing an ambitious goal – participating on the LPGA Tour. Winter, who only started playing golf at the age of 22, has already shown impressive performances on various tours.
With over 517,000 followers on Instagram and more than 194,000 on TikTok, she uses her reach to promote organizations like FOREher Sports and Women with Drive that advocate for women in golf. Her own story, marked by a vitiligo diagnosis, inspires many of her fans. She speaks about goal setting in schools and, together with Nourish Cowichan, provides healthy breakfasts for school children.
So it's an exciting day for the Netherlands, the media and the sports world. The choice of Jetten and Keenan marks a new path, while changes at MTV and inspiring stories from influencers like Winter keep the picture alive. So it remains to be seen what will come onto the scene next.
