Peter Andre says Emily turned his life upside down—here's the spark

Peter Andre, the British pop singer known for his hit “Mysterious Girl,” said his wife Emily has ‘changed him for the better’ after a long‑standing marriage to former spouse Katie Price.

The 53‑year‑old explained that the couple’s calm, argument‑free relationship has helped him shed a “toxic” past and become a more relaxed father. Now in his second decade of marriage, Andre and Emily are opening their home to viewers through a new podcast called *At Home With The Andres*.

Andre and Emily tied the knot in 2015, and the couple now has three children together—daughter Millie, son Theo, and toddler Arabella—while he also shares two older sons with his former wife. The pair’s new podcast aims to give fans an inside look at their family life and the dynamics that keep their marriage steady.

They have emphasized that they rarely argue, a stark contrast to Andre’s earlier reputation for partying and heavy drinking.

## Background & Context

The couple’s commitment is rooted in a shared philosophy that eschews raised voices. In an interview, Emily explained that they “don’t do raised voices.

Neither of us are argumentative, we'd rather have a calm chat and resolve things.” Andre echoed this sentiment, noting that he has never recalled an argument in their eleven‑year marriage.

Their approach to parenting also reflects this tone—Andre says he is “much more chill” with his younger children than he was with his eldest son Junior.

When Andre first spoke about the changes in his lifestyle, he contrasted his 1990s habits with his present self.

He said, “In the ‘90s, I was smoking, drinking, partying, swearing, and I do none of those things now.” He added that he had become softer as a father: “If I think about how strict I was with Junior compared to how I am with Arabella – I'm so soft now. I'm much more chill as a dad. Emily is a calming influence.”

The duo’s public image has evolved alongside their personal growth. Their podcast, *At Home With The Andres*, debuted recently and promises to showcase the day‑to‑day life of a blended family that now counts six children: Millie, Theo, Arabella, Junior, Princess, and an additional child from Andre’s previous marriage.

Fans have praised the couple’s openness about balancing co‑parenting responsibilities while maintaining a peaceful home environment.

Peter Andre’s remarks about his transformation were first shared in a feature for **. He said he was “much more chill now” after years of partying, drinking and smoking in the 1990s. He added that his wife’s presence has been a calming influence that helps him avoid arguments.

During the same interview, Andre reflected on his older habits and how they have changed. He described his past as “smoking, drinking, partying, swearing” and contrasted it with a current life free of those vices. He also noted a softer parenting style, saying he is now “much more chill as a dad.”

Emily added that the couple avoids raising voices and prefers calm conversation to resolve disputes. She explained, “We don’t do raised voices. Neither of us are argumentative, we'd rather have a calm chat and resolve things.” Peter echoed this, noting that he has never recalled an argument in their marriage.

The couple’s joint venture, *At Home With The Andres*, will give audiences a window into how they maintain a peaceful household while raising six children. They have promised to share candid moments about parenting, household routines and the challenges of balancing a blended family.

## The Past Turbulence with Katie Price

Andre’s marriage to former wife Katie Price, who is 53, was long plagued by conflict and a public feud that spanned sixteen years. The couple married in September 2005 at Highclere Castle and later moved to the United States, where their relationship deteriorated on the reality show.

Their divorce was finalized after an explosive argument where Andre allegedly shouted insults at Price.

During that confrontation, Andre reportedly called Price an “arrogant b***h” and used other profanity. He said, “You're a f*****g idiot, I hope you learn a lesson and come down a peg or two because you're too far up your own a*se.

You're too up your own a*se, you're a f*****g arrogant b***h, I'm not having her talk to me like that in front of anyone.” A clip of the exchange was later discussed by producers who described it as “upsetting.”

Price later denied an affair with her dressage trainer Andrew Gould, claiming she had never wanted to separate from Andre. She said, “I never wanted to split up with Peter, never ever. It hit me hard, like a dagger in the heart…

My head, heart, soul, body has been shaken, not right, since.” She added that media coverage spiraled out of control and she felt “on self destruct” during the period.

In a later interview, Price said she was heartbroken and that the couple had never spoken about the breakup. She explained, “We've never sat down and spoken about it, ever. That's what's eating me up the most.” The two have since made a public truce and pledged to co‑parent with positivity and respect.

The contrast between Andre’s past relationship with Price and his current marriage to Emily highlights a shift in his personal life. While the former marriage was fraught with public disputes, the latter is portrayed as a calm partnership that has helped him re‑evaluate his habits and parenting approach.

As Peter Andre and Emily continue to share their domestic journey on *At Home With The Andres*, fans watch a transformation unfold— from a past marked by turbulence to a present built on calm communication, softer habits, and a focus on family harmony.
