Peter Van Der Veen | Adele’s Bodyguard

Whenever you spot Adele in public, you might also see a tall, bald male always accompanying her. That’s her bodyguard, Peter Van Der Veen.  He began to work for the pop superstar starting in 2015. While he has been tasked to guard celebrities, he has become somewhat of a celebrity himself. After all, he has the looks and the model-like physique. That’s no coincidence, as he was a winner of Mister Europe back in the mid-2000s.

Aside from being a winner of a pageant, Van Der Veen has also worked as a police officer in his native Netherlands. It seems to be a worthwhile investment, as he eventually became a celebrity bodyguard to this day. Before he became Adele’s bodyguard, he was guarding Lady Gaga from 2010 to 2015. During his time with the pop superstar, he was often spotted beside her in public, indicating that he took his job seriously.
