Peter Andre, 51, reveals why he is ‘struggling’ with the idea of a vasectomy after he and wife Emily, 35, decided not to have any more children

Peter Andre has revealed he is ‘struggling’ with the idea of a vasectomy. 

The pop star, 51, is father to Junior, 19, and Princess, 17, with his ex-wife Katie Price, who he was married to from 2005 until 2009.

He then went on to tie the knot with GP Emily MacDonagh, 35, in 2015, and they have Millie, 11, and eight-year-old Theo together.

In April 2024, Emily gave birth to Arabella  but the couple have now ruled out the idea of having any more.

And while the Mysterious Girl singer has thought about going for the snip, he ‘freaked out’ when he asked others who had been through it what it entailed.

Speaking on the Netmums podcast, he explained: ‘I then went and started asking people who’ve had it done, and they were like, ‘It’s horrific. It’s this, it’s that.

Asked if he was likely to get it done, he said: ‘Probably not now. Look, I’m not gonna lie, I’ve completely bottled it. It’s freaked me out.’ 

However, the former I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! contestant will go through with it for the sake of his wife.

He said: ‘Then again, if it means that she doesn’t have to do anything to prevent it, I will do it.’

But he admitted that it will ‘take some guts’ to do it and he just need to be brave to go through with it. 

‘But it’s going to take some guts to do and I need to man up. I need to actually just go, you know what? 

‘Get over it and do it. But I’m just struggling a bit at the moment with the thought.’

During a recent appearance on Loose Women, Peter admitted that he never imagined becoming a dad in his fifties.

He said: ‘Here I am at 51 doing exactly what I said wasn’t going to happen.

‘Actually it’s been a real moment for me, because I spent a lot of time bonding this time. 

‘I said to my manager, I’ve been with her 30 years, I just want six months to really bond. 

‘And those six months were incredible.

‘I’ve given more than probably I did with the others at that age, which I regret in a way, but maybe it took all that to get to this point. 

‘I feel really good.’
