[3] In the same year he made his debut on television in the show Najib en Julia, directed by Theo van Gogh.

In 2012 Römer appeared on the cover of L'HOMO, the LGBTQ edition of the magazine Linda, where he was shown French kissing actor Tygo Gernarndt.

[6] On 17 November 2022 Dutch authorities announced Römer would be prosecuted for alleged grooming of underaged girls on the internet.

[7] The grooming case went to trial in July 2023; testimony was given about how Römer messaged three young girls (one was 14 at the time) who were fans of his, asked for naked photos, engaged in sex talk, and sent them dick pics.

Römer claimed he was taking responsibility for his actions, and defended himself by saying he was raised in a liberal way and saw himself as a caregiver ("hulpverlener") towards the girls.
