Peter Andre reveals reason Junior and Princess are refusing Christmas presents this year

Peter Andre shared the sweet reason his children Junior and Princess Andre don't want Christmas presents this year.

Junior, 17, and Princess, 15, are refusing any presents under the Christmas tree as the two, along with their dad, will be flying off to Australia this month.

Although they are splitting time between their mum Katie Price's home and their dad's during the holiday season, they will be travelling Down Under to visit family before Christmas day arrives.

Mysterious Girl singer Peter was raised in Australia before moving to the UK and will be celebrating with his parents after the coronavirus lockdown kept them apart for two years.

Peter's wife Emily, 33, and their two adorable children Theo, six, and Amelia, eight, will be joining them for the special trip.

"Junior and Princess have said they don’t want anything for Christmas. They said, 'You’re taking us to Australia to see our grandparents, that’s our Christmas present'," he revealed.

"I love that about them – but they need to tell me at least one thing! We’re heading to Australia before Christmas and then we’ll be back in the UK for Christmas Day."

Writing for his OK! column, he revealed: "I moved to Australia when I was six, so it’s really special that Theo will be seeing Oz for the first time at the same age I did."

Peter added that Theo is now old enough to remember the trip.

His wife Emily recently got into the Christmas spirit and took to social media to share a snap of the family's Christmas tree.

Theo helped his parents with the decoration of the tree.

She captioned the Instagram post: “Theo getting ready for daddy coming home, we missed you! @peterandre ps. I know it's November but we couldn't resist.”

It’s rare that the couple share images of Theo on social media, so Emily’s followers were pleased to see him feature on her grid.

One person wrote: “Oh this is so sweet and such lovely words, bless Theo”, with another typing: “He’s such a beautiful boy”.

Others were quick to compliment Emily on the tree, with one fan commenting: “A beautiful tree it is too. Sure Pete will feel the love”, while a fourth typed: “What a beautifully decorated tree! Love it x.”
