Speaking to HELLO! at The Butterfly Ball in aid of the Caudwell Children’s charity, Junior admitted: “Well I’m going to be one of eight now, which is crazy, I’m going to be a big brother again. Obviously, I’m going to be like 19 years older, so I’m going to treat it as if it’s my child. It’s going to prepare me for fatherhood but yeah I’m very excited.”
Discussing the unborn baby’s gender, Junior added: “I don’t know what it’s going to be, a boy or a girl, but either way I’m going to love it so much, I can’t wait. But I’m not changing any nappies though, but honestly, I can’t wait – it’s like a restart on life again. We’ve got a new baby sibling, it’s crazy.”
Meanwhile, at the same event, Peter opened up about Junior’s initial concerns. He told The Standard: “Junior was really worried because of the age gap, but now he’s like literally can’t wait and he’s going to be on call!
“I told him around that time he’s going to be on call to come to the hospital as soon as Emily goes into labour.”
It comes a few of months after Peter and Emily announced the news that they were expecting baby number three. On Instagram, they shared images of a baby scan.
Peter wrote: “We are delighted to share the news with you all. A new addition to our family in 2024. The kids are so excited. So are we.”
I don’t know what it’s going to be, a boy or a girl, but either way I’m going to love it so much, I can’t wait.
