A Tearjerker Of A Night
As always we had a brilliant time at the Daily Mirror Pride Of Britain Awards with Princess and Junior.
We officially opened the red carpet and cut the ribbon, which was an honour. The evening was a real tearjerker and it was amazing hearing all the stories.
One story that particularly got me was about 3 Dads Walking – three fathers who lost daughters to suicide.
They started walking to raise charity funds and awareness, and are calling for suicide prevention to be taught in schools. When you’ve got kids, you worry if they’re going through things silently, so that really got me.
We bumped into loads of friends and I was thinking the next time the awards are on, Junior will be 18 – so he might want to go by himself or with a friend – or, hey, maybe even a girlfriend. That’d be interesting.
He’ll be an adult so it will be a different time. It’s a hard time to navigate but I’m happy with where he’s at and trust him to make his own decisions.
Emily ended up taking Millie and Theo to Mexico for half term with her mum and brothers. I couldn’t go due to Grease but I didn’t want them to miss out – I’m missing them though!
At the time of writing this I have only two days before I officially finish performing in Grease in the West End and I want to say a huge thank you to every single person in the cast and crew. It was an incredible run and I will cherish it always.
All Shook Up
I hoped for a week of lie-ins while Emily was in Mexico with the kids, but our house was hit by lightning and we’ve been having repairs done!
I was in the living room and Princess was in the kitchen and all of a sudden I heard the loudest noise ever, the whole room went bright white and the house shook.
Then I saw bricks falling out the window. Princess was really shaken by it but the main thing is that she’s OK. That was my first and only concern.
The damage is predominantly above Millie and Theo’s bedrooms so we are staying away from that side of the house. I’m not sure what we’re going to do when they get home. Hopefully it’ll be fixed by then.
My Jungle Babies
Jokingly, Junior and Princess have said they’re both up for doing I’m A Celebrity, with Junior saying he wants to “represent”!
Well I guess it’s true, they are the only jungle babies, so it might go full circle and they might go on it one day, which would be great.
It’s such a great show to go on and an incredible experience. The contestants have been landing in Australia and I think Chris Moyles will be so good.
When I was on, he was campaigning for Mysterious Girl to go to No1, so I owe him!
My advice to this year’s contestants is to embrace the experience as it’s amazing and so few people get the opportunity.
30 Years To Be Exact
To celebrate 30 years of being in the entertainment industry, we are kicking off a series of events next year.
Head over to peterandre30.com to find out more and get your tickets. The first five will be unique shows that I’ve never done before, so come down and be part of the experience.
