Peter Andre has revealed what he and wife Emily think about their third baby’s gender.The couple appeared on Loose Women last week to discuss Emily’s pregnancy and the Mysterious Girl singer revealed he was hoping for a boy. Emily and Peter share Amelia, 10, and Theo, seven, while Peter is also father to Junior, 18, and Princess, 16, from his marriage to Katie Price.

Peter and Emily revealed they are keeping the baby’s gender a surprise and although the mum-to-be said she has no preference of whether their child is a girl or boy, the TV personality admitted he is secretly hoping for a baby boy.

Ahead of his 51st birthday this week, Peter revealed he and Emily are discussing names for the newest addition to their family. He said: “Emily and I appeared on Loose Women last week where I joked that I was hoping for a baby boy.

“But honestly, I don’t mind what the gender is as long as they’re happy and healthy. I’ve got two girls and two boys already and they’re all wonderful in their own way. Although I would say the girls are more moody and the boys are definitely more lazy LOL. We also haven’t chosen names yet, so we’d better hurry up. Time is flying!”

Peter went on to reveal in his OK! column that he has already started his birthday celebrations with a small get together last weekend with wife Emily. He continued: “My actual birthday on Tuesday will be quite chilled.

“The kids, Emily and I are going out for dinner to celebrate, and they’re choosing the place. I don’t mind where we go, as long as we’re all together.” Peter, who revealed Emily is expecting to give birth in a “few weeks”, said the new arrival is the “best gift I could ever wish for”.

Emily recently took to Instagram to pay tribute to her husband on Valentine’s Day. Sharing an image them as a couple, she said: “To my lovely husband, best friend and my Valentine forever! I couldn’t ask for anything more, you are always there to support me and the whole family and I am so grateful. Plus, at the moment I can’t even make it up the stairs so I truly would be stuck (downstairs) without you seriously though, thanks for being the best ever hubs I could ever ask for! Happy Valentines Day @peterandre.”

Peter previously revealed the couple suffered a health scare when Emily was rushed to hospital moments before he was about to go on stage. Speaking to OK! magazine, he recalled the hospital scare, saying: “I was due to go on stage in Grease in the West End and I got a call saying, ‘Emily’s been rushed to A&E.’ It was really worrying and obviously I immediately went to support her, but thankfully everything was OK.”

The singer and Emily married in July 2015 in Mamhead House and Castle in Devon, three years after going public with his new relationship.
