Pete's Desperation After Jordan's La Test Drama

After Jordan sparked doubt that she took her rehab stint seriously, pals say ex Peter Andre is growing increasingly concerned for her

Her wild behaviour has continued to be a source of concern for her friends and family in recent months – following her shock drink-drive arrest and flitting between toyboys Alex Adderson and Kris Boyson, despite entering rehab for PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder).

And last week, it was reported that Jordan’s ex-husband Peter Andre – from whom she split in 2009 – was desperate for the star to take her treatment seriously for the sake of their children Junior, 13, and Princess, 11.

Days later, the 45 year old – who wed Emily MacDonagh in 2015 – was seen in a video posted on Instagram, with Junior worryingly asking him, “Papi’s getting a bit old, is Papi OK? You’ve got some grey hairs Papi, are you stressing?”

A source reveals, “Pete has been understandably concerned about Katie, as the mother of his children. It’s a nightmare – he worries about what Junior and Princess could read, or what kids could say to them in the playground. Understandably, he wants Katie to make a recovery and take her treatment seriously for their sake, as they love their mum so much. Despite their differences, Pete still hates seeing Katie fall apart and the knock-on effect it can have on the kids. It’s been an emotional time.”

Peter opened up about his concerns for his kids amid Jordan’s public meltdown in September, saying, “I’m dealing with everything that’s going on at the moment, but I think it’s very important to deal with these things privately and I’m doing so. Making sure my kids are protected and away from any negativity is my main priority.”

Despite having a fractious relationship throughout the years, Peter and Jordan appeared to be on better terms before her life took a turn for the worse.
