Peter Andre’s son Junior posts sweet seven-word message about new baby – after saying he ‘didn’t want’ another sibling
JUNIOR Andre posted a sweet seven word message about his dad’s new baby – after saying he ‘didn’t want’ another sibling.
After becoming a brother again, singer Junior, 18, took to social media to share his joy.
He commented on his dad’s announcement snap with the family’s newest arrival, “Welcome to life my beautiful little sis.”
Junior now has seven siblings – Princess, 16, Harvey, 21, Jett, 10, Bunny, nine, Amelia, 10, Theo, seven, and the newest, as yet unnamed arrival.
Peter, 51, took to Instagram yesterday to announce his and wife Emily’s happy news yesterday – sharing the first picture of their baby girl.
The Mysterious Girl hitmaker wrote: “Just minutes old……
“We feel so overwhelmed right now. So happy to welcome our beautiful girl to the family.
“Mum and daughter are doing amazing. Born Tuesday 2nd April 2024, 7lb 3oz and thankfully very healthy.
“Baby has been spoilt with cuddles from Junior, Princess, Amelia and Theo who are all in love with their new little sister. As parents, we couldn’t be happier.”
He contined: “Only thing is…. She has no name yet. Help !
“Thanks to all the doctors, midwives and staff at Musgrove Park Hospital Taunton. You were incredible. And Emily’s parents, whom I adore. You have both been incredible.
“I’m so happy. Just off to hold her. Thanks everyone for reading.”
It’s no surprise to fans that the couple have yet to pick a name as earlier this week, Peter revealed they were still stumped.
He wrote in his new! magazine column: “I was reading about a few baby names that are apparently on the brink of ‘extinction’, and it looks like the most endangered in 2024 is Keanu for a boy and Flo, a shortened version of Florence, for a girl.
“I really like Keanu. It’s crazy to think names could be wiped out. Maybe this will give us some inspiration, but we have no idea what we’ll call the baby.”
He added: “Millie didn’t get her name for the first six weeks of her life, as we started with Rose before settling on Millie.”
Peter’s ex and Princess’ mum Katie has yet to comment on Pete’s latest addition.
Instead, she posted an instagram story of herself enjoying “family time” with her youngest kids at a screening of Kung Fu Panda 4.
She also shared a rant after one of the gates at her Mucky Mansion was nicked.
Katie posted a snap of the gate and wrote: Seems I have a scum bag who has stolen my gate in my fields.”
Back when Peter and Emily announced their baby news in October, some of Junior’s historic comments about the potential event resurfaced.
He had previously expressed concerns that the age gap would be too big and as a result he wouldn’t be able to form a significant bond.
In an interview with OK! magazine back in 2021, he said: “If Emily got pregnant now that means the baby would be born when I’m almost 17 and I don’t think the same strong bond would be there.”
“I’ll be close to moving out of the house. I want to be the big brother they love so much and not someone they hardly ever see.”
He added: “I also have six siblings already so there are quite a few of us.”
