Peter Andre poses with wife Emily in sweet snaps after he faced major backlash over wearing dreadlocks in the trailer for his new Jafaican film

Peter Andre took his mind off major backlash over the trailer for his new film as he made a social media appearance with his wife on Monday.

The singer, 52, and Dr Emily MacDonagh, 35, looked as loved up as ever in the cute snaps, posted to her Instagram after the pair had attended a wedding. 

The Mysterious Girl star cut a dashing figure in a navy suit, adding a navy waistcoat, for the special occasion.

He teamed the suit with an open-collared white shirt and a pair of black Oxford shoes.

Emily, meanwhile, wore a figure-hugging lime midi dress with green flecks, adding cream high heels, a smart watch and some black-rimmed glᴀsses, leaving her long blonde tresses loose for the sweet pH๏τo.

In further pictures, Peter and Emily looked like they were having a fun-filled afternoon as they took selfies.

The day out comes after Peter came under fire for wearing dreadlocks and putting on a Jamaican accent in the Jafaican trailer, which he posted to his social media last Wednesday. 

The singer stars as lead character Gary Buckle in the crime-comedy which is set for release later this year.

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.

Peter deleted his Tweet shortly after sharing the trailer after receiving the backlash as some fans questioned: ‘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.

The controversial trailer for Jafaican sees the Australian star donning a dreadlock wig before putting on a Jamaican accent, and fans have not reacted well to the project

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’

Peter tied the knot with GP Emily in 2015, and they have Millie, 11, and eight-year-old Theo together. 

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