Let's make this birthday one to remember.

72 years old (Born on July 28, 1952)

Happy Birthday, Monique Van De Ven! From capturing our hearts in "Turks Fruit" to leaving us glued to the screen as Sylvia Richter on “Spangen,” you’ve made every role memorable—often with just a single glance. Whether unraveling mysteries or lighting up dramatic scenes, your talent is timeless.

Here's wishing someone whose flair hasn't dimmed even slightly over the years another fabulous year filled with unmatched grace and humor. May this birthday bring plenty of laughter—and perhaps fewer detective dilemmas than Spangen usually delivers! Keep shining brightly; you're truly one-of-a-kind on and off screen. Cheers, Monique—we celebrate you today!
