Jutta Speidel (69) was disappointed after her appearance on the VOX show “Celebrity First Dates”. The actress explained to the “Bild” newspaper: “I only took part in this dating show because of my club ‘Horizont’, but that was edited out of the show. I wasn’t on any dating platforms – and he was an actor. That The whole thing was fake!” VOX now contradicts the latter accusation.
In response to a request from the news agency spot on news, the broadcaster said: “On ‘Celebrity First Dates’, two singles meet for a blind date. This was also the case with Jutta Speidel and her date partner Franz.” The statement continues: “The fact that he has also worked as an amateur actor in the past – in addition to his actual job as a civil servant – has nothing to do with his participation in the format. He simply wanted to get to know a woman. And in the end “Celebrity First Dates” is like in normal life: sometimes it’s a match and sometimes it’s not.”
Jutta Speidel, who has been single for around ten years, told “Bild” on the subject of love that she was not looking for a partner. “I don’t close myself off from it, if it comes, it comes.” Regarding her reason for taking part in the TV show, she explained that she wanted to reach younger people and draw attention to “Horizont”.
