Peter Andre has revealed that his son Theo, eight, put him on the spot last week during their family holiday with a heart-breaking question. The Mysterious Girl singer, 52, took to his weekly New! Magazine column to share an update after his trip to Cyprus with wife Emily MacDonagh and their children, revealing how Theo asked if they could move abroad permanently.

The request comes as Peter has been hitting the headlines this week for his strained relationship with ex-wife Katie Price, after their daughter Princess took to the screen with her own ITV show – which Katie claims to be blocked out of by Peter and his management team. While Princess Andre recently declared she’s ‘independent’ from parents as she broke her silence amid the row.

Taking his mind off of the drama, Peter said of his holiday: “We’re home from beautiful Cyprus and life is back to normal. It’s always incredible spending time with the family, especially in our Cyprus home because they have been going there since they were babies. It actually got too hot because there was a heatwave and it knocked us for six – even I struggled with it. But Theo in particular was very sad to leave and, as always, asked if we could stay or even move there.”

“Sadly, life doesn’t always work like that and school is starting again soon! But he’ll be counting the days until we can return – hopefully when it’s a bit cooler.”

Peter shares Theo, Amelia and Arabella with his wife Emily, and eldest children Princess and Junior with Katie. While he kept quiet on the recent controversy surrounding Princess, he did share in the column how proud he is of the 18-year-old.

“I’m extremely proud of Princess and her show. I think she’s absolutely smashed it. She’s come across just how she is and how we know her to be – funny, quirky and kind. The response to The Princess Diaries has been phenomenal,” he said.

The singer continued, “But even though her early success is fantastic, all I really want is for her to be happy. Hopefully, she can do season two, three, four – whatever she wants to do– and soar like an eagle because she’s a great kid and I’m so proud of her.”

While Katie often talks publicly about her children and ex Peter, the latter often stays silent on his former marriage. However, after Katie claimed on a recent podcast that their children live with her, amid other accusations, Peter took to Instagram with a statement.

He wrote: “For 16 years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That ends today.”

“The latest comments about my children’s welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood. In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement.” He added, “I have never made this public before, out of respect for my children.”

He went on to state that the courts found Katie “had made false claims” on two separate occasions, in 2011 and 2015, and that “she was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise to me and my management”.
