Princess Andre, the 18-year-old daughter of media personality Katie Price and singer Peter Andre, has publicly addressed her mother's unexpected marriage to Dubai-based businessman Lee Andrews. The wedding, which took place in a private ceremony in Dubai, marks Katie Price's fourth trip down the aisle and came as a surprise to many close to the family.
A Family Focus on Stability and Positivity
Princess's comments come shortly after her parents made a significant joint announcement, declaring an end to their public criticisms of each other. Katie Price and Peter Andre, who separated in 2009 after a highly publicised marriage, share two children: Junior, now 20, and Princess, 18. In a statement released to the public, the former couple emphasised their commitment to creating a calm and supportive environment for their family.
The statement read: "Katie Price and Peter Andre have decided to close the door on the past and move forward into a new chapter with positivity and respect. 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. This decision reflects a shared commitment to our family and stability."
Princess Andre's Reaction to the Truce
Speaking exclusively to The Sun's Fabulous magazine, Princess expressed relief and happiness about her parents' new agreement. "I feel really happy that they've both agreed to move forward on good terms," she said. "For myself and Junior, it's nice to know that life will be easier for everybody. It is definitely a relief, and I feel like now as a family, we can all be happy."
Princess, who has grown up in the spotlight since her first television appearance at just six weeks old, also highlighted the practical benefits of the truce. "It's also going to be nice to not have people asking me and Junior about our parents' issues and putting us in the middle," she explained. "Not everything people see online is true, so hopefully this is a good way to clear up the rumours."
Responding to Katie Price's Surprise Wedding
However, the family's move toward stability was quickly followed by another unexpected development. Just two weeks before Princess spoke out, her mother revealed she had married Lee Andrews in a private ceremony. The wedding, which reportedly occurred ten days prior to the announcement, surprised many of Katie Price's friends and family members.
Katie Price, 47, has been married three times previously: to Peter Andre, cage fighter Alex Reid, and Kieran Hayler. Her latest union with Andrews adds another chapter to her well-documented personal life.
Princess's Light-Hearted Take on the News
Despite the whirlwind nature of the event, Princess appears to be handling the news with characteristic grace and humour. When asked about her mother's latest marriage, she laughed and said, "She's crazy. But it's my mum... I mean, if she's happy, I'm happy."
Princess confirmed that she has not yet met her new stepfather but has seen her mother since the wedding. Her comments reflect a mature perspective focused on her mother's happiness rather than the sensational aspects of the story.
As the Andre family navigates these new developments, Princess is also preparing for the upcoming release of the second season of her reality series, The Princess Diaries, which will air on ITV2 and ITVX starting March 8. The show offers viewers a glimpse into her life as she balances family dynamics with her own growing public profile.
