Olympian Jolien Vermeylen fumes after disturbing Seine River rant goes viral: ‘Invented new words’

Belgian triathlete Jolien Vermeylen is back in the headlines.

This comes after she seemingly described swimming in the Seine as a “dirty experience” and that she “felt and saw things that we shouldn’t think about too much.”

Vermeylen, according to multiple outlets added that: “We’ll know tomorrow if I’m sick or not… “It doesn’t taste like Coca-Cola or Sprite, of course.”

But now, Vermeylen claims that her words — translated to English from her native language — were not conveyed or reported on properly.

“The translation is just … poorly done,” she said. “They invented new words, used superlatives and made me angry and whatever.”
