Peter Andre has been criticised by fans for taking a family trip to SeaWord during his holiday in Abu Dhabi.

The singer, 52, jetted off with his five children and his wife Emily, 35, to the UAE for a family trip but has come under fire for a recent Instagram post.

The reality star shared a snap of his children walking into animal theme park SeaWorld which was met with disapproval from animal lovers.  

Alongside the post, he wrote: ‘We had the best time at @yasisland exploring all the parks. So special to have the whole family together, there truly is something for everyone. We’ll definitely be back!’

Unimpressed fans wrote: ‘SeaWorld, definitely NOT a place for animal lovers’.

‘Great pH๏τos until you showed SeaWorld, how sad’… ‘Promoting cruel, unethical hell holes for animals, such as SeaWorld. Vile. Way to go @peterandre’.

‘I’m so sad to see you visiting SeaWorld, the cruelty around these ‘entertainment’ parks are obvious and you could use your platform to help end the suffering endured by highly intelligent mammals. Very disappointing.’

‘Definitely a no from me, poor sea creatures belong in their natural habitat.’ 

SeaWorld Abu Dhabi state they are ‘committed to providing the highest standard of animal welfare based on best practices and standards set by internationally recognized animal welfare organisations. 

‘Our animal care team consists of over 100 highly experienced and pᴀssionate veterinarians, scientists, animal care specialists, and educators who devote their lives to caring for and sharing their pᴀssion for animals.’

Peter shares Amelia, 11, Theo, 9, and Arabella, 13 months, with Emily and he is also father to Junior, 19, and Princess, 17, with his ex Katie Price.  

Peter’s post comes after he received backlash after releasing the trailer to his new film, Jafaican. 

The singer stars as Gary Buckle in the crime-comedy, a con artist pretending to be a Jamaican gangster. 

Gary, also known as Gazza, must master Jamaican culture in 21 days in order to execute a fraud in London and Jamaica and earn the £35,000 he needs to pay for his grandmother’s care. 

Alongside the post, he wrote: ‘We had the best time at @yasisland exploring all the parks’ 

He added: ‘So special to have the whole family together, there truly is something for everyone. We’ll definitely be back!’

With the film set to release later this year, its trailer showed Peter wearing dreadlocks and putting on a Jamaican accent – something which fans have called ‘profoundly disrespectful’. 

The trailer made fans question: ‘Did I wake up in 1998?!’

‘Peter Andre starring as the lead character of a film called JAFAICAN where he’s pretending to be a Jamaican and wearing a dreadlock wig is not something I was expecting to see in the year of our Lord 2025 but here we are…’ 

‘There’s a movie coming out with Peter Andre in a dreadlock wig pretending to be Jamaican. Is this really what we’re doing in 2025?’;

‘Why on earth has YouTube just recommended me a trailer for a film starring Peter Andre about a man posing as a fake Jamaican? Did I wake up in 1998?’

One fan noticed Peter had deleted his tweet in light of the negative response and asked: ‘So Peter Andre deleted his tweet, does that mean Jafaican is being scrapped?’

However the trailer didn’t receive all negative comments after other social media users shared their excitement ahead of the film’s release.

Peter first posted the trailer on his Instagram over the weekend as he announced: ‘The OFFICIAL trailer for JAFAICAN has just dropped! Coming to cinemas soon….’

Revealing his upcoming promo work for the film he confirmed the world premiere will be at the Gold Coast Film Festival on May 9 and teased that news on a UK premiere would be coming soon. 

Excited fans penned: ‘Peter that looks amazing can’t wait to see this brilliant’; ‘Oh yes!!!! looking forward to this @peterandre can’t wait’;

‘I wish I could have watched this being filmed’
