    Muriel Isabel Sprissler Dafoe: A nurse who instilled in Willem a strong work ethic and empathy for those in need. Not just a nurse, Muriel nurtured Willem’s artistic curiosity and emotional intelligence. Her empathetic nature and dedication to caring for others likely influenced Willem’s compassion and desire to explore complex human emotions through his art.

    Siblings:

Giada’s own acting career and background in film provide a common ground for creative exchange and mutual inspiration.
