Peter on his mum’s health

The TV star has had to watch from afar as his mum’s health continues to worsen.

His mum lives in Australia.

“I was with her a few months ago. We’ve just got to be with her as much as possible,” he said in a previous new! Magazine column.

“It’s just age. She’s got all sorts of things going on now. The only thing that worries me about turning another year older is that my parents are getting older and my mum’s health is really declining, which makes me sad.”

Peter also previously admitted his mum has been “struggling” in recent months.

“Dad’s going to be 90 next year and mum’s 86. Mum’s struggling at the moment, though,” he said.

“She’s not doing great. She’s suffering a bit and declining. I was with her a few months ago. We’ve just got to be with her as much as possible. It’s just age. She’s got all sorts of things going on now.”
