Peter Andre admits: ‘I hit rock bottom and thought Emily would LEAVE’

Their marriage was on the rocks

As the countdown gathers pace towards the birth of their second child, Peter Andre has admitted that there was a time when he thought he would lose his wife Emily.

Back at the end of 2012, Peter struggled to cope with the loss of his brother Andrew to cancer.

By his own admittance, he became difficult to live with.

Peter and Emily’s marriage hung in the balance and he urged his wife to leave for her own sake.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, the 43-year-old singer spoke out about his grief and the effect this had on the family.

He said: “When I hit rock bottom I thought Emily was going to leave me.

“She’s told me how difficult it was to be with me.”

Peter continued: “I told her at the time ‘go, you don’t have to deal with me’, but she said no way – that she was in it for the long haul.

“She was so matter-of-fact about staying… I knew I’d spend the rest of my life with her.

If someone doesn’t argue with you when you’re at rock bottom and shutting them out, you can get through anything.”

It seems now that they are rock solid and have put all this behind them.
