Bodyguard Peter Van der Veen has been accompanying Adele as she’s been making her various media appearances, and photos of the former champion bodybuilder next to Adele have caused an explosion in the Twitterverse, reports PEOPLE, with some even crying out for a remake of The Bodyguard starring the 2005 winner of the Mr. Europe bodybuilding title.
If Van der Veen looks familiar, you may recall his face from paparazzi photos alongside Lady Gaga, for whom he previously served as bodyguard.
