Peter Andre has admitted he's 'very protective' when it comes to his eldest daughter Princess.

The Mysterious Girl singer is hands-on dad to his children Princess, 16, and Junior, 18, who have followed him into the entertainment industry and younger children Amelia, ten, and Theo, six, who he shares with second wife Emily - who is also pregnant with their third child.

Speaking in his weekly column for OK! magazine, Peter opened up about his parenting rules. He said: "I really am protective over Princess. But the one thing I've learnt as my kids get older is that I need to treat them equally and can't be stricter with one."

"Any rule that applies to Princess applies to Junior, and I always say to them that they're role models for their younger siblings." Recently, Peter's eldest daughter Princess had her first solo photoshoot with OK!. She spoke about her plans to start her own beauty career.

"I'm feeling a bit nervous because it's my first shoot alone, and I'm a bit like, 'Oh my God, I'm doing this on my own!'" she giggled. "At the same time I'm really excited because I think it's nice for people to get to know me and understand where I'm coming from and not just think they know me for who my parents are."

The 16 year old is buzzing with excitement for the arrival of her new sibling - Peter's fifth child. The Mysterious Girl singer, Peter Andre, and his wife Emily MacDonagh recently shared the happy news that they're expecting another baby next year.

This will be the couple's third child, joining siblings Theo, seven, and Amelia, nine. Princess was only nine when Theo was born, so the upcoming arrival will be a different experience for her.

"I'm honestly so excited," she gushes. "I literally love babies, they're just so cute, so I'm really looking forward to it." But does this mean she's ready to help with changing nappies?

"I wouldn't say fully on board" she said, laughing. "No, I'm only joking. I feel like I'm a good big sister, and now that I'm older I can help with things and look after the baby."

Princess and Junior have four younger siblings Bunny, nine, and Jett, 10 - who are their mum Katie Price's children from her marriage to Kieran Hayler, plus Theo and Amelia. They also have two older brothers Harvey, 21, and 18 year old Junior.
