In a move that might make sense given their ongoing feud, Peter Andre has released a seven-word statement about how he chooses to raise his brood.
Peter Andre has explained that you “need to teach children how to swim” in an analogy about how to deal with children, in what’s seemingly a dig amid his feud with ex-wife Katie Price.
The former couple, who share kids Princess and Junior, have been at war with one another over recent months after Katie accused Peter and his management of keeping her away from their daughter Princess’s work ventures and claimed their kids lived in her home. While Peter, 52, responded with a statement to “set the record straight” where he alleged that their children have been in his care since 2018.
Now, onto his weekly New! Peter, a magazine columnist, discussed Stacey Dooley’s recent conversation with Lily Phillips, in which the adult star’s parents were distraught over her career choice. Peter stated in his New! that he had his own perspective on parenting and how he raised his children. “Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over, a documentary with the adult content creator Lily Phillips, which included an emotional interview with Lily’s parents, has sparked a lot of discussion,” according to a magazine column.
It’s simple to express your opinion on someone else’s behavior, but I find it difficult to do so if you don’t know them or have any knowledge of their motivations or experiences. Parenting is not simple. Your children are adults, and you can offer advice.
Peter continued: “But it’s so important to talk to your kids, especially with the world as it is today. It’s no good building a pool and telling them not to jump in – you need to teach them to swim.”
Alongside Princess and Junior, Peter shares three children with his wife Emily MacDonagh; Theo, Amelia and Arabella. Peter was married to showbiz legend Katie from 2005 until 2009, with the latter making a number of claims in her podcast, The Katie Price Show, about Peter last month.
However, Peter made an unexpected Instagram comment shortly after that statement: “For sixteen 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. Staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That is finished today.
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 formally imposed this arrangement on the family courts in 2019. Out of respect for my children, I’ve never made this public.
My ex-wife made false claims in court cases that were publicly documented in 2011 and 2015. 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 my lies or baseless accusations. In the upcoming months, those will now be addressed.
In response, a Katie spokesperson told the Mirror that ” 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 make tit-for-tat comments,” but more importantly, she is handling this in the right way and her lawyers are now in charge of it. Kate will no longer be bullied and gaslighted like she was in the past…
