Former boyfriend of Katie Price, the father-of-five, has been at odds with his ex-wife and has now reportedly addressed a previous swipe at him.
As the war of words wages on between Peter Andre and Katie Price, the dad-of-five has seemingly now addressed the targeting of his character.
Katie, 47, recently appeared to be speaking about her ex-husband when she wrote on Instagram: “some Saints are not who they would have you believe they are. They have a carefully managed image which must be exhausting to maintain.”
Peter, who has two children with his ex-wife, said in a new interview that he was happy to talk about how he upholds his “nice guy” persona but that he had to back down because of “legal reasons.”

Addressing maintaining his nice guy image, Peter, 52, told The Telegraph: “Well, look, nobody’s perfect. No-one’s perfect in this world. Everyone makes mistakes. But you get the measure of me by meeting me.
You’ll either believe that I’m too talkative and annoying, or that he’s just harmless. However, consistency is important as you build a picture of someone over time.
Katie revealed she was “banned” from appearing on her and Pete’s daughter Princess’ ITV2 show, The Princess Diaries, which sparked the most recent drama between the two partners. She stated on her podcast that “Princess was like I’m having a party.” And I wasn’t invited because the event was “filming.”
In a statement made earlier this month, Peter took to Instagram to explain that despite my ex-wife’s and her family’s repeated lies, “I have stayed silent for 16 years, but keeping silent has been incredibly frustrating. Today we come to an end.
I must set the record straight when I make the most recent remarks regarding my children’s welfare and living conditions. Junior and Princess were placed with me until they were adults in 2018 for well-known reasons and for their safety.
The family courts imposed a legally binding order to carry out this agreement in 2019. Out of respect for my children, I’ve never made this public.
My ex-wife’s false claims were discovered in publicly documented court cases in 2011 and 2015, respectively. She was ordered to apologize to me and my management and pay substantial damages and legal costs. Today, the same lies are being made.
“Unfortunately, I haven’t yet addressed any of the lies and baseless accusations I have.” In the upcoming months, those will now be addressed.
In response, a spokesperson for Katie told the Mirror: “Kate is in a much better and clear headspace and is at peace with the situation, this was in the past and she doesn’t feel the need to bring up tit for tat comments, but more importantly she’s dealing with this the right way and it’s now in her lawyers hands. Kate will no longer be gaslight [sic] and bullied as she once was…”
On her Instagram Stories, Katie continued to respond, “Saints and sinners.” We are known as Saints and Sinners in this life, as we all know.
I am aware that I will always have a sin. That’s fair because I allowed myself to rely on drugs and alcohol. While dealing with mental illness, I occasionally wasn’t the mother I should have been. I’ve occasionally been a terrible sibling, a terrible friend, and a bad partner.
“I’ve self-meditated, been wrong, and hurt both myself and my loved ones. I’ve had a number of reasons, including having sexually abused when I was younger, having coercive relationships, and having mental health issues, but I don’t want to make any justifications. I’ve worked to resolve my issues and recognized my shortcomings. I’ve tried and failed before, and sometimes I’ve succeeded. Because I want to be there for my children, I’ve pushed myself out of this suicidal spiral.
Then, she continued to pen the phrase, “Saints.” Some of you are sincere, and some have aided me. However, some saints are not as good as you would think they are. They have a carefully maintained image that needs to be maintained.
Some saints are phony, some say. They play the victim, and they need a villain, or at least a Sinner, to succeed in life. They are not able to be the Saint without the Sinner. But perhaps I should feel guilty for them because pretending all the time must be difficult. Anyway, all you Sinners continue to strive for perfection. It’s okay not to be perfect, Saints, it’s okay.
Junior and Princess, Peter and Katie’s two children, are also their children. The former couple no longer interact with one another.
Following the breakdown of their marriage in 2009, the couple haven’t spoken since their divorce. Peter and Emily MacDonagh have three children, Amelia, 11, Theo, 8, and Arabella, who is one-year old.
Kate’s previous relationships with Keiran Hayler and Jett and Bunny’s children include Harvey, 23, and them. JJ Slater, a former glamour model, and Married At First Sight star JJ, are currently dating.
