Peter Andre’s wife Emily shares photo of rarely-seen daughter, 9, as she praises latest achievement

Peter Andre’s wife Emily MacDonagh has shared a photo of their rarely-seen daughter Millie after she won a cheerleading competition last week.

The 33-year-old NHS doctor took to Instagram to share a montage of their trip to Nottingham where the nine-year-old was competing with her team – and as usual, took care not to reveal her face.

She proudly captioned the post: “Girls’ road trip! Millie and I went up to Nottingham this weekend for Battle of Champions, her final cheerleading competition of the season.

“The girls absolutely smashed it, coming in first place and Royal Champions 2023! All of the teams did so well.

“It’s so lovely watching her do something she enjoys so much, with such a lovely group of girls. Well done to all the teams – see you next season!”

The doctor and Peter are also parents to son Theodore, six, and have chosen to keep their children’s identities private in a bid to keep them out of the spotlight.

Aside from their two children, Emily is also step-mother to the 50-year-old’s two children Junior, 18, and Princess, 16, from his previous marriage to Katie Price.

Emily’s post comes after Peter recently hit back at claims he’s undergone any cosmetic procedures, revealing that he’s only had baby botox “because HDTV shows the lines”.

He told OK! magazine: “I’ve had no fillers or anything like that and I don’t dye my hair – I’m not interested. I want to see how it plays out a little bit.”

In the same interview, he explained how years of yo-yo dieting has impacted his mental health and left him fearing to go shirtless in public.

The 50-year-old shot to fame in 1995 with the hit Mysterious Girl and the accompanying music video showcasing his muscular physique, which he soon became known for.

Reflecting on his relationship with food, the TV star admitted that his “ripped 22-year-old” self means he had a lot to live up to.

However, Andre explained he got fatigued from keeping himself at a high physical standard in his thirties, which led him to gain three stone from eating “pizza, Chinese, anything I could get my hands on, all day, every day”, before he turned to fad diets to slim down again.

Yet it was during this time that the TV personality said he was left with “psychological issues” after being photographed coming out of the sea in the Bahamas.

He shared in the same interview: “The photo got sent all around the world and it was the first time people had seen me like that since the early days. I remember the headlines – ‘Andre piles on the pack’.

“Now, I’ve got this psychological link to something and it’s stopping me just freely walking around the beach – I just won’t do it. It’s ridiculous.”
