'I hugged everyone': Peter Andre denies telling fans not to touch him amid coronavirus fears

Peter Andre has denied he asked fans not to touch him amid coronavirus fears.

The Mysterious Girl star says he had no idea 'signs were put up' at the Southampton concert, which also told fans selfies were banned, Hull Live reports.

The Australian singer, whose wife studied medicine at Bristol University, wrote on Twitter: “Ok this must be a wind up because I hugged everyone I met.

“People were saying to me that they had been told not to touch me and that there were signs.I thought they were joking. Brilliant.

“I am now officially a diva without being a diva.

“On a serious note though don’t touch me.”

A picture of a sign, apparently posted at Southampton Central Hall at the An Evening With Peter Andre event, was shared on Twitter, reading: “Due to recent cases of the coronavirus please DO NOT have any physical contact with Peter Andre.

“Please DO NOT take any selfies with Peter Andre.

“Apologies for any inconvenience.”
