Peter Andre issues warning to 'good pal' Jeremy Kyle over birth of sixth child
Peter Andre has given his mate Jeremy Kyle a warning ahead of welcoming his sixth child.
The Mysterious Girl hitmaker sent his congratulations to his "good friend" after he announced he is set to become a dad for the sixth time. Former ITV presenter Jeremy shared the happy news that wife Victoria is expecting a baby girl. The couple are already parents to son Oliver who was born in 2020 and are "over the moon" with the news.
Jeremy, who overcame testicular cancer in 2012, joked about his sperm as he teased that he should "bottle it" as he will become a dad once again in his late 50s. While dad-of-four Peter offered some words of advice for the Jeremy Kyle Show star. He said: "I'd like to congratulate my really good friend Jeremy Kyle and his wife Victoria on their exciting news - becoming a dad for the sixth time is epic. I'm one of six so I know how full on it can be, so they've certainly got their hands full there.

Jeremy and wife Victoria are already parents to son Oliver"What lovely news!," he wrote in his New column. Speaking to The Sun, Jeremy shared his news as he said: "Yes, baby number six is incoming, I’m catching BoJo up, to be honest! Vic says I need to set up a side business by bottling it because I’m 58 and I’ve only got one testicle, but everyone knows that anyway. It’s a baby girl, she’s due early next year, and we’re over the moon as our family is complete."
Jeremy added that his other children are really happy for him and Victoria, including eldest daughter Harriet who Jeremy joked thinks he needs "sectioning" for going through the newborn phase again later in life. However, the couple’s journey to expand their brood has been an “emotional rollercoaster” after they sadly lost a baby in March. It was the second miscarriage the couple had endured – they also lost a baby at nine weeks before conceiving Oliver, now three, in 2019.

Speaking of their loss for the first time to The Mirror, Vic told how she was eight weeks’ pregnant when doctors delivered the crushing news they couldn’t find their baby’s heartbeat. Vic, 40, who wed Jeremy in 2021, said: “It was devastating. People say, ‘It’s so early, it’s just a bunch of cells’, but as a woman you can’t help but get attached to what’s going on in your body.”
They endured further turmoil when Vic was booked in for a procedure to remove the foetus but they were told there was a heartbeat after all. After an agonising week’s wait, doctors confirmed the pregnancy wasn’t viable. Jeremy, who survived testicular cancer in 2013, said: “The second miscarriage was the hardest for Vic. Because we’d had one before, we tried not to get excited. It was an emotional rollercoaster.”
The couple fell pregnant with their ‘rainbow baby’ girl – the term for a child born after a miscarriage – who is due next year. She will join brother Oliver and Jeremy’s kids from his previous relationships, Harriet, 33, Alice, 19, Ava, 18, and Henry, 14. To critics who reckon he’s too old to be a dad again, Jeremy said: “Age is just a number. To be honest, I think Oliver will benefit with not being able to rule the whole house."
