Peter Andre gives an insight into family holiday with wife Emily and their three children after ex Katie Price hit back at his bombshell statement

On Friday, Peter Andre shared details about his family vacation in Cyprus with his spouse Emily and their three kids, despite his ongoing dispute with his former partner Katie Price.

On a sunny day at the beach, the 52-year-old singer and his wife Emily, aged 36, strolled along together, joined by their three children: Amelia, who was 11 years old, Theo at the age of eight, and one-year-old Arabella.

At sunset, the girls were spotted donning identical two-piece ensembles while taking a break for a photo.

Peter, with Cypriot parents, posted a heartwarming picture on his Instagram Story, simply titled ‘Cyprus’.

presently, the television figure finds himself embroiled in a severe dispute with his former spouse, Katie, following his harsh remarks about her ‘unfounded accusations over the past 16 years’ in an impassioned declaration made public on Thursday.

Peter, who has Junior, age 20, and Princess, age 18, with a former glamour model aged 47, has been encouraged to participate in peace negotiations due to his daughter Princess being allegedly unfairly involved in their dispute.

On Friday, Katie responded to Peter’s startling declaration with an unusual Instagram post addressing those she referred to as ‘pretend sinners claiming to be victims.’

There has been increasing speculation about a strain in the relationship between Katie and her daughter, following Katie’s absence at her daughter’s 18th birthday celebration and lack of appearance on the daughter’s reality TV show on ITV.

Later, Katie asserted that she was informed by her daughter’s team not to be part of the TV program.

In her extensive post on Instagram, Katie admitted, “I’m striving to be my absolute best,” acknowledging that she hasn’t always met the mark as a loving and nurturing parent.

She wrote: ‘Saints and sinners. As we know, in this life we are thought of as Saints and Sinners.

‘I acknowledge that I’ll continue to struggle with sin, given my past choices to lean on substances like drugs and alcohol. It’s only right.’

At certain points in my life, due to my struggles with mental illness, I fell short as a mother. In these moments, I also found myself lacking as a friend, a terrible sibling, and an unreliable partner. I’ve made poor decisions, such as self-medicating, being unfaithful, causing harm to myself, and hurting those I care about deeply.

Throughout my life, I’ve faced numerous challenges, including experiences of sexual abuse in my youth, harmful relationships, and struggles with mental health. However, it’s important to note that I don’t intend for these circumstances to be viewed as excuses, but rather as factors that have shaped who I am today.

Katie went on to say: “I identified my problems and made efforts to move past them. There were times when I didn’t quite make it, but there were also times when I managed to overcome them.

I managed to break free from a dark, suicidal mindset as I cherish my kids deeply and long to remain a presence in their lives.

I certainly don’t claim to be flawless, quite the contrary – I’m striving for self-improvement in every way possible. However, there are individuals who I consider to be exceptional, and some of them have provided guidance and support to me along the way.

However, not all saints portray their true selves as the public might perceive. They meticulously craft an impression that likely requires considerable effort to sustain.

Not all Saints are genuine; some pretend to be innocent victims for personal gain. They often require an ‘antagonist,’ or someone considered morally wrong, to establish their own righteousness.

Occasionally, I find myself growing weary of these paragons of virtue. Yet, perhaps I ought to empathize with their plight; maintaining an image of perfection seems exhausting.

Alright everyone, keep on keeping up the good fight, all you ‘Sinners.’ Keep striving for improvement. And for those of you who are ‘Saints,’ remember it’s alright if you’re not flawless.

2009 saw the end of my beloved couple, the enigmatic songster from “The Mysterious Girl” and the radiant ex-fashion icon, parting ways following four blissful years as husband and wife. Yet, through it all, they’ve continued to be the most dedicated duo, raising our cherished Junior and Princess with love and devotion.

On Thursday, Peter openly discussed his perspective, stating: “Over the past sixteen years, I’ve chosen to remain quiet in the face of persistent falsehoods from my ex-wife and her relatives, for the sake of my children and dear ones. However, remaining silent has proven immensely trying. That silence is broken today.

To clarify some recent discussions regarding the wellbeing and residential status of my children, I feel it’s necessary to clear up a few points. Due to various documented circumstances, and for their safety, Junior and Princess were placed under my guardianship in 2018, and they lived with me until they reached maturity.

2019 saw a court-ordered, legally binding decree regarding our family matters that I’ve chosen not to disclose until now, as a measure of consideration for my kids.

2011 and 2015 marked years where public court records revealed that my former spouse had fabricated claims against me. As a result, she was mandated to compensate significant damages, legal fees, and issue an apology – directed towards me and my management team. Regrettably, the same untruths persist today.

Regrettably, I still need to address several falsehoods and unfounded allegations. Over the next few months, I plan to tackle these issues.

A representative for Katie shared with Daily Mail that Katie is currently feeling significantly improved mentally and has found peace regarding the past situation. Unlike before, Katie isn’t inclined to engage in reciprocal comments about the matter. Instead, she’s handling it appropriately, and her legal team is now managing it. Crucially, Katie will no longer endure manipulation and harassment like she did previously.

After receiving a call from Katie, Peter was asked to meet up with her to discuss resolving their disagreement, which is beneficial for their family.

On her recent podcast, Katie Price (currently recuperating from a round of facial surgeries), expressed: ‘It makes perfect sense for both parents to step up and offer support.’

She went on to say, “I want to make it clear that my absence from the Princess’s show doesn’t matter to me.

‘I don’t need to raise my profile by being on Princess’s show, I do enough stuff.

What I aim for is simply mimicking my daughter’s activities, and the same applies to Junior as well. I don’t mind being in the sidelines, but I eagerly want to observe her during photo shoots and signings, as these are experiences I had myself.

Additionally, both my mom, you, and Nan would often join us, offering their encouragement, and I take great pride in her. However, I yearn to be by her side now, as I realize I may have missed out on numerous moments together in the past.

Katie continued, “It’s really unfair to involve Princess Piggy in this situation. I believe it’s high time for us grown-ups to gather and discuss the issues they have with me, and hopefully find a way to move past them.

Life might find tranquility since there’s no issue for me. I simply believe that life would be improved overall.

As a lifestyle advocate, I’d like to emphasize the importance of unity, especially when it comes to our children. It doesn’t necessarily mean we need to become each other’s BFFs, but let’s try to put aside our differences for their sake. After all, it’s about supporting them in their journey through life, right? I’m not suggesting that we should pretend everything is peachy-keen or live in a perpetual happy family scenario, but rather, let’s be there for them when they need us most.

In a different conversation, my dear heart Sophie, a staunch supporter like myself, was advocating passionately for my beloved Katie to be included in that very show.

Sophie mused: ‘Ultimately I do think it’s down to Princess to put her foot down a bit’.

However, Katie retorted by saying that Princess might feel intimidated to express her true desires directly to her management.

She mentioned, “However, Sophia, I want you to understand that when I first began my career, I didn’t have the support of management or anyone else. I would take the train, attend auditions, and work hard for it.

Ever since their extravagant reality TV nuptials, Katie and Pete have been my ultimate celebrity power couple! They’ve been raking in the dough with a series of high-profile business ventures, leaving everyone in Britain buzzing about them nonstop. I just can’t get enough of these two lovebirds!

However, their relationship took a turn for the worse upon the dissolution of their marriage in 2009, following four years of union. Katie alleged that it was Peter who chose to depart from the relationship.

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve observed the aftermath of Katie and Peter’s marital separation, which has indeed grabbed the nation’s attention. Regrettably, the discourse between them, played out in public view, has taken a rather pointed turn.

Stepping into my role as a lifestyle expert, I’ve found myself reflecting on the recent developments in Katie and Peter’s marital journey. The nation seems to have been drawn into their story, with a series of public exchanges that, unfortunately, have become quite pointed from both parties.

In her latest ITV2 reality show, The Princess Diaries, the Princess candidly discussed the influence of her parents’ stormy divorce, revealing that she found it difficult to approach her father following his separation from Katie because of their mutual animosity towards each other.

In the show, she openly discussed that she relies on a counselor, as in the past she found it difficult to confide in her father because of their strained relationship.

Over the past few weeks, following her ban from a television show produced by Can Associates that features Princess, Katie has been vocal about her opinions. The former model subtly criticized the show without being overt about it.

The princess’ upcoming TV series will delve into her family life, which includes her father Peter, his spouse Emily, and elder brother Junior, in addition to exploring her role as an influencer. The production of this show is being handled by Can Associates, a management company owned by Peter.

From 2003 to 2009, the company notably provided support for Katie during her relationship with Pete, a period that ended dramatically in the sensational split of that year.

More recently, Katie criticized the individuals previously responsible for her, which many speculate were Peter Andre’s management team, during an episode of her podcast, The Katie Price Show.

Instead, let me rephrase that for you. She spoke at length about feeling slighted by not being invited to Princess’s 18th birthday party, specifically mentioning her sister Sophie. However, she chose to be vague and accused some individuals indirectly.

Katie stated, “Now that Princess has reached adulthood, Mommy and Princess are free to go out together. As long as some folks permit it, she can be seen with me.

Sophie stated: “In her eighteenth birthday photos, I saw she was wearing the shoes you gave her for Christmas.” Katie responded: “Oh, how sweet! That’s lovely.

Katie mentioned, “It’s common knowledge that she’s making a documentary, but I’m not included. Some folks believe it’s inappropriate for the Princess to associate with me due to my past associations.

Her sister said: ‘You aren’t on brand Katie. You are too risky Katie that’s why.

As her dedicated admirer, I can’t help but echo her sentiments: “It’s truly pitiful. I, her devoted mother, am finding this situation incredibly heartbreaking. Once upon a time, individuals who I once relied on are now caring for… it’s an ironic twist of fate.

Her sister Sophie then urged Katie to ‘save it for another day’.

Katie is said to have mentioned her former public relations group, who continue to handle her ex-spouse Peter and their kids, Junior and Princess.

Daily Mail contacted The Can Group for comment at the time.

Throughout their partnership, CAN facilitated the creation of a high-profile reality TV show on ITV titled “Katie and Peter,” which ultimately resulted in significant financial gains for both Katie and Peter, amounting to millions.

However, after a disagreement with CAN, Katie is no longer likely to feature on the princess’s show.

Previously, Katie had lodged legal papers accusing both Peter, their ex-representatives, and Claire, their former manager, of conducting a defamatory campaign against her.

In 2009, Katie accused Claire of being the reason for her marital collapse, stating that Peter was involved in a romantic entanglement with not one but two women, including Claire, during their partnership.

After being found guilty in court, she was compelled to issue a public apology to both Peter and Claire.
