Katie Price’s ex-husband Peter Andre normally keeps pretty quiet when it comes to his personal life or interfering in Katie’s life. He has fully moved on, but they do share two children so he will always be tied to Katie.
It has been reported that he is worried about how the news of Katie Price’s husband Kieran Hayler’s cheating will affect the children, especially as the sordid details are out there in the open.
Katie hasn’t held back in describing details of the affair, including saying that Kieran and the kids’ nanny had sex in every room of the house, and that Kieran has a ‘sex addiction’.

So Peter has reportedly begged Katie to pipe down on the lewd details, to protect their children Junior, 12 and Princess, 10.
A source told Closer magazine: “Pete’s begged Katie to stop with the public slanging matches. He wants her to sort this mess out with Kieran behind closed doors. However, she fears if she stops washing her dirty laundry in public, her career will be dead and buried.”
Apparently, Peter is also worried about Katie’s son Harvey, who he was stepdad to during their four year marriage.
The source added: “With Kieran being a house husband for so long, the kids are used to having him around all the time. Pete worries about how Harvey would feel if Kieran wasn’t around, and fears how Princess and Junior would cope with the upheaval. He knows how close they are to Kieran.”
Peter doesn’t want Katie to use the kids as a weapon, as the source continued: “Pete wants to have the kids more and has asked Katie to keep things as normal as possible at home.
“He also wants Katie to let the kids spend as much time as they want with Kieran and not use them to punish him. She’s promised Pete she won’t be that petty.”
The Aussie singer is currently married to Emily MacDonagh with whom he has two children, Amelia, three, and Theo, 10 months.
Katie has announced she is divorcing Kieran, after finding out he cheated on her with the children’s nanny Nikki Brown. Kieran has admitted these claims are true and slammed Nikki for denying the allegations.
The former stripper says that his infidelity was down to his insatiable sex addiction that is so ferocious that he would even sleep with an 80-year-old woman.
In the brutally honest interview, Kieran comes clean about having sex with the 40-year-old nanny in Katie’s house five times over a six-month period.
“This wasn’t a big love affair, I didn’t fancy Nikki,” he told The Sun.
“I’m a sex addict and needed a thrill. If our nanny had been 80 I’d probably have tried to manipulate her into having sex too.
“It didn’t matter who it was, I just wanted a fix. If it wasn’t her it would have been someone else.
“It was a means to an end, the thrill of the chase.”

In response to Nikki’s claims that the affair never happened, he added: “I refuse to have Katie wrongly branded a liar.
“Sadly Katie is telling the truth – I cheated on her with our nanny.
“I’ve hurt her, betrayed her and now need to stand up for her. However bad I feel, I know I have made Katie feel worse.”
