Princess Andre has explained why she's kept her boyfriend out of the spotlight, despite dating him for nearly a year.
The daughter of Katie Price and Peter Andre, 16, regularly posts snaps of herself on Instagram, but has only shared a handful of photos of her beau, who she is yet to name. Pointing out her boyfriend is not in the public eye and shouldn't have to be if he doesn't want to, she said she prefers to keep her relationship private to stop other people from 'saying things'.
Opening up about her relationship, she said: "I just think being private is good, because I feel like when other people get involved they try and say a lot of things.
“Obviously, my boyfriend’s not in the public eye so I don’t think it’s fair on him to have everyone trying to find out about his business and all of that. So, I mean, being private in general is how I like it, I don’t think people should know all about my personal life," reports OK! magazine.
Princess, who is now carving out a career for herself training to be a beauty therapist as well as representing brands, including Pretty Little Thing, first went public with her relationship in May. After posting snaps of herself and her boyfriend from her mum Katie's 45th birthday bash in Brighton, fans flocked to congratulate the celebrity offspring on her romance.

But then, in October, she posted another photo of her rarely-seen boyfriend for her 666,000 followers on the platform. After inviting fans to "ask me anything" on her story, one Instagram user asked the teen: "How are u and ur boyfriend? x."

As the first daughter of proud dad, Peter, Princess was jokingly told by the Aussie, he'd prefer it if she became a nun before she revealed her first boyfriend. The Mysterious Girl star, admitted he struggled with the transition and is now about to become a dad for the fifth time after wife, Emily, announced she was pregnant with the couple's third child.
Speaking about Pete's parenting approach, Princess told OK!: “Obviously, my dad is going to be protective over his daughters. But now I’m older I kind of understand a bit more about what he’s saying, so it’s not really a problem. I’ll always respect what my parents say."
