40 YO Peter Andre and his 23 YO GF are expecting a baby.

She's just finished a degree in medicine and has the world at her feet.

I Just Don't Get It.

Money? Rippling abs? Celebrity?

CaptainSweatPants · 23/07/2013 14:07

A billion threads on this already!

She's in lurve

She's fame hungry & addicted to itv2 reality shows

Who knows?!!

ThisReallyIsNotSPNopeNotAtAll · 23/07/2013 14:07

His orange glow hypnotises her

Sparklysilversequins · 23/07/2013 14:08

Where are the threads? I only saw one in sleb twaddle with minimal posts.

Well if it doesn't work out she's young enough to go back and have a career in medicine and pick up where she left off! :)

Hashtagwhatever · 23/07/2013 14:36

She might be as boring as him, so didn't have many options

EBearhug · 23/07/2013 15:43

She's probably got a lot of post-student debt.

Whothefuckfarted · 23/07/2013 15:46

Maybe she loves him and he treats her well?

CheeseandPickledOnion · 23/07/2013 15:49

Maybe being 40 doesn't mean he's past it!!!

MalcolmTuckersMum · 23/07/2013 15:50

What's your actual problem here OP? Ok, you don't fancy him but chances are she won't fancy your partner so that's ok. I can't see how this relationship is really honestly going to cause the actual end of her life so it can't be that. She's just graduated? Well knowledge doesn't have a sell-by date so it's not that.

So really? What's the big deal?

Peter Andre seems like a nice guy though - you have to do what you have to do, I think he will be in a bit of a zlist trap tbh, its not like he can go get a job at the local now is it?

they seem nice together too

When i was 17 I fell madly in love with a 35 year-old - he was soooo manly.

WorraLiberty · 23/07/2013 16:04

What a weird thing to wonder.

If you know him personally then it's a fair enough question I suppose

But if you don't, then I'm quite sure she'll be 'seeing' things that you don't...because you don't know him.

OwlinaTree · 23/07/2013 16:04

You feel very strongly about that, NotYoMomma Wink

LadyBryan · 23/07/2013 16:05

YABU - you don't know either of them, therefore cannot judge what their relationship is.

Is it the age difference? One of my fave sleb crushes is 70. He's 40 years older than me. He's on my laminated list Grin

MalcolmTuckersMum · 23/07/2013 16:08

And since her father is a surgeon I'd have thought it unlikely that she's hooked up with Mr Andre as a way of clearing her student debt. Sometimes a lot actually the mealymouthed stuff that gets said here leaves me Shock

dontwannasaywho · 23/07/2013 16:17

I agree with you Op but Pete seem's to have a lot of fan's.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and my opinion is ho looks's old enough to be her Father.

And he is too smarmy for my liking but a lot of people think he's the bee's knee's but such is life!

dontwannasaywho · 23/07/2013 16:19

he that should be

MalcolmTuckersMum · 23/07/2013 16:22

That quite some apostrophe abuse you've got going on there dontwanna - way to go!

dontwannasaywho · 23/07/2013 16:27

I have Dyslexia and probably am not the best at writing things, so thank you foe commenting on that MalcolmTuckersMum Hmm
