Peter Andre hints at music comeback and collaboration with Love Island's Wes Nelson

Peter Andre has teased a return to music - with none other than former Love Island star Wes Nelson.

The Mysterious Girl singer posted a series of snaps with the reality TV star turned musician to his Instagram Stories on Monday night.

In the first snap shared to his 1.7 million followers, Peter could be seen posing in a cap alongside Wes, 23, and producer Ayo Beatz in what appeared to be a music studio.

"What a day..." the dad-of-four captioned the cryptic post to his online fans.

The TV personality - whose second studio album reached No. 1 in the UK Albums Chart back in 1996 - then shared a couple more snippets from his day at the Rebel Records recording studio.

In his additional snaps, doting dad Peter can be seen chilling alongside Wes - who rose to fame in the 2018 series of Love Island - and fellow artists.

Since reaching the final of the fourth series of the ITV2 dating show with ex Megan Barton-Hanson, Wes has changed his career path and successfully forged a name for himself in the music world.

In October 2019, the star competed in The X Factor : Celebrity as part of a group called No Love Lost, composed of fellow former Love Island stars Samira Mighty, Zara McDermott and Eyal Booker.

The following year, Wes announced that he had signed a solo record deal with EMI Records and in September 2020, he released his debut single, "See Nobody" with Hardy Caprio.

Wes peaked at No. 3 in the UK Singles Chart back in April 2021 with his hit single, Nice to Meet Ya featuring Yxng Bane.

Peter's musical heyday was back in the 1990s, when his best-known hit Mysterious Girl peaked at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart in 1996.

The reality TV star eventually nabbed a number 1 when his hit single was re-released in 2004, following his appearance on ITV show I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!

Given son Junior's links to Rebel Records, there is every chance Peter was visiting the studio in relation to his first born's budding music career, rather than planning his come singing comeback.

Speaking at the the Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Awards last year, the doting dad gushed with pride when discussing his son's singing ambitions.

When quizzed about Junior following in his footsteps, Peter said: "Well, I think I'm going to be loving being the one on the other side watching."

"Do you know what's really funny? What's really amazing, I won't bore you with it but I'll be really brief with it, I went in to the studio to start my album and then we started focusing on Junior, because he's so good, and I'm just carrying on later."

"Seeing what he's doing, and we're so different in styles, seeing him - he's going to shine," he proudly added back in October.

When asked whether he thinks his son has what it takes to nab a number one - just like his dad - Peter didn't want to put too much pressure on his offspring.

"You know what, I never want to predict something but I think he's going to do very well," he diplomatically replied.
