Marijke Amado mourns the loss of her dog
On Instagram there Marijke Amado the sad news announced. Today, April 24th, her four-legged friend went over the rainbow. “You were the best and loveliest dog, so great,” she says goodbye with a photo of the Havanese.
“I will miss you so much, my dearest, sweet and great Jottum. You were by my side for 16 years and what we have experienced,” Marijke continues. And Jottum may actually be known to one or the other. Because in 2013, the furry friend and her famous owner took part in the first season of “Celebrity Big Brother”: “Have a good trip, my darling. I will miss you so much and so will Basil.” Basil is the former “Mini Playback Show” host’s second dog, who has lived with her since 2024.

Feel really hugged,” writes the jungle camp candidate Nicole Belstler-Boettcher.
