Peter Andre, 52, reveals awkward moment with wife Emily, 35, as he makes a rare comment about their 16-year age gap

Daily Mail​5 hours ago

Peter Andre has recalled an awkward moment that emphasised his 16-year age gap with wife Emily.
The Mysterious Girl singer, 52, was introduced to the NHS doctor, 35, by her father when he was 36 and she was just 20.
After striking up an initial friendship, the pair began dating in 2012 before going on to tie the knot in a lavish ceremony three years later in 2015.
The couple have three children together and despite the strength of their relationship, Peter has admitted their 16-year age gap can still be very apparent.
The star told how Emily revealed her age difference during a hilarious blunder at the Pride Of Britain Awards.

Peter told how iconic rocker Jon Bon Jovi, 63, came to their table at the annual award ceremony to strike up a conversation.
Writing in his column for new! magazine, he said: 'There's one thing we do laugh about, though… We were at the Pride of Britain Awards one year and Jon Bon Jovi came over to chat. I've met him many times over the years and he's a lovely person.
'He introduced himself to Emily and after he walked away, she turned to me and said, "Who was that?" I was like, "Are you serious? It's Bon Jovi". In the most confused but innocent voice, she said, "What's a Bon Jovi?"
'We laughed about that a lot afterwards! It's in those moments we may realise the age gap - usually with music and films – but in general, we love the same things. I think it's what works for you in a relationship. Who are we to judge?'
The star emphasised that the age gap between him and Emily - 16 years - 'really works' for the couple.
He added: 'It all depends on the relationship, how the partners are with each other and how they view things, I think. There's a 16-year gap between me and Emily, and it really works for us.'
Peter that they had a 'good laugh' about her lack of knowledge of classic rock music and said that it's really just popular culture references that set the couple apart.
The couple largely keep their relationship - and their children Amelia, 11, Theo, eight, and Arabella, 13 months - out of the spotlight, but fans of the family could soon be seeing them more.
MailOnline recently revealed that Peter and Emily will feature in his daughter Princess Andre's forthcoming ITV reality show.
Peter co- parents Princess, who turns 18 later this month, and her older brother Junior, 19, with his ex-wife Katie Price, 47.
The former couple famously met on the 2004 series I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and married the following year.
The relationship came to an abrupt end in 2009 and Katie has gone on to have numerous engagements and marriages since.
Peter, meanwhile, met Emily after he had a kidney stone removed by her father, Dr Ruaraidh MacDonagh, a consultant urologist, back in 2010.
Katie is not set to appear in Princess' new fly-on-the-wall programme, which will see the influencer become a celebrity in her own right.
The show will follow her work and home life as she prepares to reach the milestone age of 18 and last month, the popular teenager was spotted with a camera crew outside the London offices of hair styling brand GHD.
A television insider told MailOnline: 'Katie will not be in Princess's show, the decision has been made and it's final.
'Princess loves her mum, and they have a great relationship, but the show is all about her work and home life.
'Television bosses were adamant that nothing was to be 'staged' to include Katie as it would not be a real and truthful insight into her life.'

EXCLUSIVE Freddy Brazier reveals he turned down Love Island in an attempt to step away from his family name and admits his social media is just like the ITV2 show

Freddy Brazier has revealed he turned down dating show Love Island and that he wants to step away from his family name and not be remembered for who his parents are. The 20-year-old son of Jeff Brazier and the late Jade Goody told The Mail how producers recently offered him a slot on the show. 'I'm on Instagram, I don't need Love Island,' he said. 'I've got Love Island on my phone from my bed. 'I need to do something without him [my dad]. I don't want to be seen as 'Freddy from Race with his dad.' I want to be known for something on my own. 'I'm more interested in modelling. I've got some good opportunities coming up – but this stuff with my dad isn't helping that.' Freddy's reveal comes as he insisted, he is now 'not' going to rehab, days after revealing he was going to 'get clean' in Marbella. He told fans last week that he has been addicted to smoking from the age of 12 and would be heading for treatment soon. Freddy shared in an Instagram post on Sunday that he has decided he 'doesn't need rehab' and instead just 'needs a boys' holiday or a retreat'. Posting a black and white photo of his younger self, he wrote: 'You know what I don't need rehab! I just need a holiday with a good group of boys or a retreat.' Last week, Freddy also made candid remarks about wanting to rebuild a healthy relationship with his father Jeff, 46, after a family rift. Freddy wrote: 'I've decided that I will be cutting down And I want to go to Rehab In Marbs as I feel if I'm in England I won't take getting clean seriously. 'I've been smoking from the age of 12 and it's time to stop it was a bad coping mechanism that turnt into an addiction something I relied on and something that made me feel sane and some what ok. 'I've found a rehabilitation centre and a boxing club I've found someone I want to get to know and I'm happy I got a good bunch of friends and I get out and enjoy myself. 'I want to be clean so I can life happily and have healthy relationships with people and be there for all of my family rather then feeling like I'm in the middle and have to choose a side.' He continued: 'I haven't been able to feel love properly as I have never loved myself and it starts now I want to play football and take up boxing I want to be happy and be in a healthy relationship and have a healthy relationship with my Nana and my father.' Celebrity Race Across the World star Freddy lost his mother when he was just four years old after she died from cervical cancer in 2009, and has since been raised by his dad Jeff. Jeff has clashed multiple times with Jade's mum Jackiey Budden, and it was revealed last month the TV star is taking action in an attempt to legally block contact between his son and his grandmother, to keep him safe'. And Freddy's love life has also recently made headlines. His Love Island admission comes just days after Freddy enjoyed a first date with controversial influencer Tasha Newcombe, 22, at Glasshouse Terrace in London Bridge. Tasha hit headlines herself last summer when she, then 21, became romantically involved with 16-year-old Marko Vituk, from Maidstone. MailOnline contacted Bobby and Jackiey's reps for comment. The latest series of the reality dating show kicks off on Monday night with host Maya Jama [pictured] set to introduce a new batch of sexy singletons looking for love The new season of Love Island returns on June 9 with the full line-up of contestants confirmed. This year's crop of hopefuls include a Declan Rice body double, fire breather and Maura Higgins lookalike and Maya will once again be at the helm after joining the popular dating series in January 2023. This year, the show celebrates a decade on screens and promises to have 'more twists and turns than ever before' in honour of their 10-year anniversary.

Katie Price cruelly slammed by mum-shaming trolls as she poses with son Harvey at home

KATIE Price has been cruelly slammed by mum-shaming trolls. The former glamour model, 47, came under fire after she posted a sweet snap with son Harvey, 22, at home 4 4 4 It came after Katie shared a picture of her and Harvey doing some baking. In the photo the mother and son are posing in the kitchen, with a packet of cake mix in view. Katie captioned the shot with: "Baking with Harvey 🍰 carrot cake for all the family today." While the majority of comments were kind, there were some trolls who used the picture to mum-shame her. One wrote: "Thought you were really worried about Harvey's weight!!! And you make a cake?!" While another added: "Bake it from scratch Katie. You can make one much healthier than from that cake mix, and use real butter not spread." This one said: "Wouldn't it have been healthier for Harvey if you'd made it from scratch." Another chimed in: "You moan about his weight but feed him cake." HARVEY'S WEIGHT JOURNEY Meanwhile, last week Katie gave her fans an update on Harvey's weight loss journey. She has been worried about her son's health after his weight reached 30st. Katie Price drops huge hint daughter Princess Andre is in talks for Love Island after boyfriend split But now she has revealed they have looked at weight loss jabs to help him. Speaking on the latest episode of her The Katie Price Show podcast, she said: "Hopefully Harvey starts his Mounjaro this week, but we'll talk about that next week and I'll go through all of what's happening about that." The mum-of-five previously opened up on how Harvey's life was at risk because of his size. The TV personality's eldest child has Prader-Willi syndrome, which sparks a constant desire to eat food and a permanent feeling of hunger which leads to obesity. 4 Harvey battles a series of debilitating conditions including autism, septo-optic dysplasia, ADHD and oppositional defiant disorder. In a video posted in April, Katie revealed: 'I'm so heartbroken and gutted that his weight is just going up. 'I just googled it in stones, 188kg is just a few kg of being 30 stone. 'It's so life-threatening now, I'm still waiting for the doctors to get back to me starting on the Mounjaro and his journey to a healthy life.' She continued: 'It's so sad his quality of life at the moment where he's so big, he just can't really do much. 'It's just another thing I have to deal with because he's at high risk of having a heart attack, he struggles to put his trainers or struggles to walk anywhere but I love him and I'm going to help him through this. 'So sad, obesity and his condition is sad, it's sad to see someone go through it and he doesn't understand.' In February Katie told The Sun she consulted top doctors who suggested starting Harvey on the jabs in a bid to improve his chances of living longer. Harvey's biological dad is former footballer Dwight, 53, dated for a short period between 2000 and 2001, but split shortly after Katie told him she was pregnant. Everything you need to know about fat jabs Weight loss jabs are all the rage as studies and patient stories reveal they help people shed flab at almost unbelievable rates, as well as appearing to reduce the risk of serious diseases. Wegovy – a modified version of type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic – and Mounjaro are the leading weight loss injections used in the UK. Wegovy, real name semaglutide, has been used on the NHS for years while Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a newer and more powerful addition to the market. Mounjaro accounts for most private prescriptions for weight loss and is set to join Wegovy as an NHS staple this year. How do they work? The jabs work by suppressing your appetite, making you eat less so your body burns fat for energy instead and you lose weight. They do this my mimicking a hormone called GLP-1, which signals to the brain when the stomach is full, so the drugs are officially called GLP-1 receptor agonists. They slow down digestion and increase insulin production, lowering blood sugar, which is why they were first developed to treat type 2 diabetes in which patients' sugar levels are too high. Can I get them? NHS prescriptions of weight loss drugs, mainly Wegovy and an older version called Saxenda (chemical name liraglutide), are controlled through specialist weight loss clinics. Typically a patient will have to have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, classifying them as medically obese, and also have a weight-related health condition such as high blood pressure. GPs generally do not prescribe the drugs for weight loss. Private prescribers offer the jabs, most commonly Mounjaro, to anyone who is obese (BMI of 30+) or overweight (BMI 25-30) with a weight-related health risk. Private pharmacies have been rapped for handing them out too easily and video calls or face-to-face appointments are now mandatory to check a patient is being truthful about their size and health. Are there any risks? Yes – side effects are common but most are relatively mild. Around half of people taking the drug experience gut issues, including sickness, bloating, acid reflux, constipation and diarrhoea. Dr Sarah Jarvis, GP and clinical consultant at said: 'One of the more uncommon side effects is severe acute pancreatitis, which is extremely painful and happens to one in 500 people.' Other uncommon side effects include altered taste, kidney problems, allergic reactions, gallbladder problems and hypoglycemia. Evidence has so far been inconclusive about whether the injections are damaging to patients' mental health. Figures obtained by The Sun show that, up to January 2025, 85 patient deaths in the UK were suspected to be linked to the medicines.
