Princess Andre has broken her silence regarding her mother Katie Price's recent marriage to businessman Lee Andrews, describing the situation as "crazy" while expressing cautious optimism about her mother's happiness. The 18-year-old daughter of former glamour model Katie Price and singer Peter Andre had remained notably quiet about the Dubai nuptials until now, offering her perspective in a revealing interview.
Princess Andre's Candid Thoughts on Mother's Fourth Marriage
In her first public comments about the union, Princess Andre told The Sun newspaper: "She's crazy but it's my mum... I mean, if she's happy, I'm happy." The reality television star confirmed she has not yet met her new stepfather Lee Andrews, despite having seen her mother since the wedding ceremony took place. This revelation comes after Katie Price shocked her fanbase by announcing her fourth marriage to Andrews, a businessman who has been the subject of numerous controversial exposés concerning his professional dealings and personal relationships.
Witnessing Heartbreak Firsthand
During the premiere episode of the latest series of her ITV reality show, Princess Andre opened up about growing up while witnessing her mother's romantic disappointments and heartbreaks. "I've seen first-hand what heartbreak can look like, and my mum is the prime example," Princess explained. "She's had so many people do her wrong, and growing up seeing that has given me an eye-opener of what people can really be like."
The young celebrity admitted that observing her mother's turbulent romantic history has made her more guarded about pursuing love herself. However, she noted that her father Peter Andre's relationship with his wife Emily MacDonagh provides a counterbalance of hope. "Because of that, my guard is up," Princess acknowledged. "But obviously, I see my dad and Emily, and think true love does work."
Parents' Feud Finally Resolved
In additional developments, Princess Andre shed light on the recent reconciliation between her parents Katie Price and Peter Andre, who have ended their longstanding and bitter feud. The reality star expressed relief that her parents are now on better terms, noting that this improvement makes life considerably easier for both herself and her 20-year-old brother Junior.
Princess shared her happiness at being able to focus on family unity rather than being caught in the middle of parental conflict. Earlier this month, Katie and Peter publicly confirmed their war of words had concluded, with both committing to create a "calm and supportive environment" for their children moving forward.
From Reality TV Romance to Acrimonious Split
The former couple first met as campmates on the third series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in 2004, marrying just over a year later in 2005. Their relationship produced two children—Junior and Princess—before their abrupt separation and subsequent divorce in 2009. The acrimony that followed their split persisted for years until their recent reconciliation announcement.
This announcement represents their first positive interaction in sixteen years, with both parties expressing a desire to "close the door on the past and move forward into a new chapter with positivity and respect." In a joint statement, they emphasized: "We are both focused on creating a calm and supportive environment for our children. We have reached a mutual agreement, both legally and personally confirming that neither of us will speak negatively about the other going forward."
Past Legal Battles and Current Resolutions
Peter Andre previously revealed that Junior and Princess lived with him for "their safety" beginning in 2018, remaining under his care until they reached adulthood. In a 2025 Instagram post, Andre explained his long silence regarding family matters: "For sixteen years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating."
Andre referenced legally binding court orders from 2019 that enforced the living arrangements, along with previous court cases in 2011 and 2015 where Katie Price was found to have made false claims and was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs. A spokesperson for Katie Price responded to these allegations by stating: "Kate is in a much better and clear headspace and is at peace with the situation, this was in the past and she doesn't feel the need to bring up tit for tat comments."
The spokesperson added that Price is now dealing with matters "the right way" through legal channels and "will no longer be gaslight and bullied as she once was." This development marks a significant turning point in the long-running family drama that has played out in public view for nearly two decades.
