Peter Van de Velde under fire after linking Ghislaine Nuytten’s death to vaccination | showbiz

On Tuesday evening, Flanders had to say goodbye to fashion journalist and TV face Ghislaine Nuytten. Flanders’ first international model died unexpectedly of cardiac arrest at the age of 67. Among the many statements of support to the family, there is also a striking reaction from actor Peter Van de Velde. “I wouldn’t be surprised if it was because of the vaccination! Like Christian Eriksen of the national team of Denmark”, the ‘Piet Piraat’ star writes on Facebook. He has since taken the comment offline. Although the comment was only online for a while, several hundred people on Facebook and Twitter responded to the comment.

Studio 100 does not want to go into too much detail about the incident. “Peter is not an antivaxer himself and has had his shots,” it sounds. “He has removed his post on his own initiative and that’s the end for us.” Van de Velde himself could not be reached for comment this afternoon.

It is not the first time that the actor casts his critical eye on the vaccination campaign. He previously announced on social media that he is very skeptical about vaccines. “I’ve been saying for a long time, ‘Get me vaccinated? Tarara! Never!’” said the actor. In addition, he was already at odds with Marc Van Ranst. “Does anyone have some Gaffa tape to seal his mouth,” the actor wrote of the virologist. “You can be media horny, but there are limits.”

Van de Velde realizes that he can sometimes be striking. That is why he is no longer on Twitter. “I know that sometimes I have to be protected from myself,” he said in an interview with Day All. “I’m straightforward, and sometimes you get the door against your face. We live in a society where it is less and less tolerated that you express your opinion, especially as a BV. And as a child hero you still have an exemplary function. A large bowl does not fit with that.”
