Peter Andre breaks down during TV interview
Pass the tissues.
Peter Andre fought back tears during a live TV interview yesterday, after questions about his ex-wife, their children and her new husband left the singer choked up.
During the segment with Sky News presenter Kay Burley, the reality TV star was shown archive footage of Dwight Yorke, the father of Katie Price’s son Harvey, 7, criticising Peter for wanting to adopt the child.
Responding to the clip, the 36-year-old said: “To me, a nice little thank you would be nice. I asked to adopt him because I love him. I didn’t ask to adopt him to be disrespectful. It angers me when people turn around and I get a comment like that.”
Asked how he might feel if Alex Reid wanted to adopt Junior, 4, and Princess, 2, he angrily stated: “‘No one is going to take my kids away from me – nobody. I’m sorry. Nobody is going to take my kids away from me. And I will fight to the death for that. Nobody’s going to take those kids away – I’ll die before I let that happen. It’s not going to happen. I will go to court.”
Andre, who admitted he had no prior knowledge of Price, aka Jordan’s whirlwind wedding to the cage-fighter, cut short the interview and has since cancelled a string of other scheduled appearances.

Katie Price and Peter Andre to divorce
Katie Price and Peter Andre are set to set divorce after four-and-a-half years of marriage.
The split ends months of speculation surrounding the couple, who have documented their tumultuous relationship on ITV2 reality series Katie and Peter: Stateside.
30-year-old, Katie, once said infidelity would be the only force that would drive them apart.
She told OK! magazine in October: “I wouldn’t [leave him]. It would only be if he cheated on me. I think that’s the same for both of us – there’s nothing else that would make us break up – only if one of us was unfaithful.”
Peter, 36, has previously said he struggled with the glamour model’s occasional penchant for wild nights on the town, where she would reprise her alter ego, Jordan.
The pair who met while filming reality TV show ‘I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here ‘ have two children together – three-year-old Junior Savva Andreas, and Princess Tiaamii, 21 months.
Katie also has a son, Harvey, 6, from a previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke.
Commenting on the separation, Katie told The Press Association: “Pete is the love of my life and my life. We have children together and I am devastated and disappointed by his decision to separate and divorce me, as I married him for life”
“This is not what I want and the decision has been taken out of my hands. I will not comment further or do any interviews regarding the separation but I will always love my Pete,”
Jeez. Is there something in the water, there seems to be a running theme of nudity and divorce going on lately.
