Emily Andre has given fans a rare glimpse inside family life with husband Peter Andre on their son’s birthday.
The 35-year-old doctor married the Mysterious Girl hitmaker, 51, in 2015 after three years of dating.
Emily and Pete, who live in Surrey, have three children together – Amelia, 10, Theo, eight, and baby daughter Arabella, who was born in April – while Pete is also a dad to Junior, 19, and Princess, 17, from his marriage to Katie Price.
Junior and Princess are no strangers to the spotlight, with Junior following in his father’s footsteps by forging a music career, while Princess is so clearly Katie’s daughter with her fashion and beauty influencing.
However, Pete and Emily keep their youngest kids out of the public eye, choosing not to reveal their faces on social media.
Taking to Instagram to mark Theo’s eighth birthday, Dr. Emily shared a snap of her son on a family holiday, looking out to the sea.
Her caption read: ‘My gorgeous boy is 8 today. I actually can’t believe where the time has gone!’
She added to her son: ‘Theo you are the kindest and loveliest boy we could ever ask for. Love you so much and happy birthday ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️’
In the comments, doting dad Pete wrote: ‘Love that boy. So much ❤️’
Fans of the star pair were quick to wish Theo a happy birthday, praising Pete and Emily for being ‘amazing role models’ for their family.
Emily’s post comes after dad Pete worried he wouldn’t get home in time for the special day as his flight was delayed.
He said: ‘I never normally have a moan, but I’m going to have a moan because I’m stuck at Larnaka airport. We’ve been filming all day. It’s Theo’s birthday in the morning; the flights have been cancelled. I’m not feeling well.
‘It’s just like, “Oh my god.” So I don’t know what’s going to happen, but there’s no flights back, and I feel sick, but apart from that, everything’s fine.’
The dad-of-five has always openly expressed his love for his kids, having even walked red carpets with older children Junior and Princess.

However, he recently admitted to New! Magazine that he’s been struggling to juggle his time since his baby girl was born.
‘One thing that is really important is to treat all the kids equally, and sometimes, I fail,’ he confessed.
‘Just today, I said to Theo, “I want to apologise to you because yesterday you set up something in the playroom and asked me to go in and I didn’t.”
‘These things are easy to forget because you are so busy but to them, it means the world – I made up for it, but that’s not the point.’
Speaking previously about their decision to not show their younger kids’ faces online, Pete explained that they ‘weren’t born into the media’ so ‘no one has ever seen their faces’.
Therefore, Emily was particularly keen on protecting their anonymity for the sake of their schooling.
Recently, Pete was quizzed on why he hasn’t posted baby Arabella’s face on the internet after uploading a snap of the back of her head, showing her tuft of hair.
‘Why do you not [show] the faces of your children?’, one follower asked.
Many rushed to the I’m A Celebrity star’s defence, with user auntmaggie1967 commenting: ‘Because they do not want to. Get over it.’
lparksey37 added: ‘because he wants to show the back of her hair 😍which is beautiful and because she is his baby and he can do what he likes.’
Pete also replied to the comment, killing the troll with kindness as he wrote: ‘@lorrainenich58 Isn’t the back of her head cute? 😂❤️’
