Peter Andre reveals he turned down TV job on daughter’s first day of school

Peter Andre has revealed that he turned down a TV job so he wouldn’t miss his daughter’s first day of school.

His ex-wife Katie Price was criticised for releasing topless snaps she’d posed for in Mallorca on the day her daughter Bunny made her school debut.

And Peter appears to be taking a thinly-veiled swipe at her as he lets everyone know that there’s no way he’d do the same thing.

In fact, he turned down a job on ITV show This Morning for that very reason.

Writing in his new! magazine column, he said: "It was Amelia’s first day at school last Wednesday. Emily and I took her in while Sam, Emily’s brother, looked after Theo for us.

"It was such a special moment. When we got home, we just looked at each other and were like, ‘It’s just Theo in the house now. How weird is this?’

"I was actually asked to go on This Morning last Wednesday to discuss a campaign against parents smacking children, but because it was Millie’s first day I had to say no because I didn’t want to miss it."

Proud dad-of-four Peter, 45, also shared his son Junior’s dream of launching a rap career.


After posting a video of Junior – who he shares with Katie as well as daughter Princess – showing off his skills by performing a rap by Ocean Wilson, Peter said the star got in touch to send some praise.

But sweet Junior, 13, told his dad he was worried about how he’d manage to launch a rap career without using bad language.

Peter said: "As I pointed out, Will Smith never cursed and look how successful he was."

It comes after Peter revealed his struggle at protecting Junior and Princess, 11, from the negativity and sensational headlines surrounding their mum.


Katie has attracted a lot of controversy lately.

After splitting from boyfriend Kris Boyson, who she started dating after the breakdown of her marriage to Kieran Hayler, Katie has been pictured groping the bum of her new man, 25-year-old Alex Adderson and caught on video apparently rapping about her love of cocaine.

Speaking to OK! magazine, Peter said that he was working hard to protect his children.

He said: "I’m dealing with everything that’s going on at the moment, but I think it’s very important to deal with these things privately and I’m doing so. Making sure my kids are protected and away from any negativity is my main priority."
