While his ex flaunts her new love, Peter reveals his dream to return home to give his kids an Aussie upbringing. Erin Craven reports.
Peter Andre is desperate to start a new life in Australia with his children. The decision has come after his ex-wife Katie Price moved her new cage-fighter lover into the couple’s former marital home.
Raised in Australia, Peter has revealed that he’s hoping to find love again with a “normal girl” and bring his children back to his hometown in the wake of his split from hard-partying Katie, aka Jordan.
“My ultimate dream, of course, would be to spend a lot more time in Australia. But not on my own, obviously. [It’s] not wherever you lay your hat is your home. Wherever my kids are, that’s my home,” he exclusively tells Woman’s Day.
Since splitting from Katie in May, Pete has been vocal about wanting to give Harvey, 7, Junior, 4 and Princess Tiaamii, 2, the best possible future and a traditional Aussie upbringing. “I have this unbelievable desire to get the kids in a campervan and take them across Australia,” he has said.
The kids have been Peter’s saviour during his bitter divorce. So far he has spared them the news that he and Katie have separated, only telling them that they are lucky to now have “two houses”.
Harvey is not Pete’s biological child — he is the product of a fling Katie had with soccer ace Dwight Yorke — but Pete refuses to leave the severely disabled boy behind, including him in his custody proposal.
While the singer has been looking after the kids, Katie has been hitting the party scene hard. Peter admits he phoned to tell her she was a “disgrace” after she was pictured going wild in Ibiza.
