to think Peter Andre is not as great as he tries to make out?

OK, I'll caviat the whole thing by saying it hasn't changed my opinion of Katie Price / Jordan at all, but I think this programme on ITV2 is not helping PA at all.

If you don't want your kids to know about all the hassle between the parents, one good way to ensure that is to NOT SELL YOUR STORY ON TV.

Grrrrrr...

OK I could switch over and I have now but I did think his side of the story would be differnet.

But bless him, he doesn't exist unless he's got a camera crew following him around.

And for all the vitriol between the two of them, if he hadn't married her, he wouldn't have a crew with him at all.

He's got to keep his profile public , for his 'music' career and for his ego.

God forbid he returns to early 1990's obscurity again.

My husband has actually threatened me with divorce if I buy his album...

See, I'm even prepared to give him that...

Yes, he was on Celebrity Jungle thing. So was she.

But at least she isn't out there spouting 'the kids, the kids, the kids'...he is, but he's still getting the boot in where he can and, as I said,if he's so bothered about keeping the kids out of it, then shutting up would be a really good move.

As I said, I don't like her. I just don't like him either now.

If he really cared that much about his kids he wouldn't have chosen her as the mother of his children in the first place.

curiositykilled · 17/08/2009 22:06

he might be contractually obliged, didn't they sign up for a good nother while. Maybe ITV2 said they'd release him if he did one more... I think he's like a puppy, bit thick but genuinely sweet and loyal.

VinegarTits · 17/08/2009 22:11

He might be out there spouting 'the kids, the kids' but at least he's not out there shagging and partying like she is, she a disgrace

I like PA, i wouldnt blame him if he sold his story now after the way she has acted

PilotLight · 17/08/2009 22:13

I think the moping round ikea was a bit put on

VinegarTits · 17/08/2009 22:13

erm mummiesnet, my xp is useless twat, does that mean i dont care about my kids because i choose him as a dad

Mumcentreplus · 17/08/2009 22:13
Hmm
hocuspontas · 17/08/2009 22:14

I think he was a bit controlling. Or rather didn't like it when she came across as the stronger one.

Let's face it he would have sunk without a trace after the Jungle without her.

Just now he was trying to be all enigmatic '..as long as I know why we broke up that's all that matters...'. Probably drove her crazy.

Don't think twatishness stops people from having kids..not a fair comment..imagine if he had turned around and said ' I wont have kids with her she's a twat' the out cry!..although true to some extent I'm sure..really don't know about a relationship when you are not in it..

Mumcentreplus · 17/08/2009 22:20

Oh please!..they were in the same place!...both on Jungle...both in the same league..she was no better than him imo

VinegarTits · 17/08/2009 22:20

nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors (pun intended)

teamcullen · 17/08/2009 23:10

What do you think of that Clare. I think shes behind a lot of the shit thats been broadcast. She makes out shes really concerned but dropped Kate like a hot potato (ok she was apparently asked to choose between them by kate), but she used to make out that they were so close and always said the press are twisting things. But now beleives every thing she hears.

I think peter had more work comming up which meant she would make more money out of Peter.

mj4ever · 17/08/2009 23:21

No one knows how mr andre feels apart from him.

love him

hate her(now)

Mumcentreplus · 17/08/2009 23:22

Probably true cull...but I can't take what happens to either of them seriously..although somehow I just like Pete more than Jordan/kate...her level of selfishness is unsurpassed..

claire was petes PA before kate's so it's only natural she would go with him.

GrimmaTheNome · 17/08/2009 23:26

YABU

...to bother thinking anything about Peter Andre at all (whoever he may be. Someone who was married to someone else not worth thinking about. [shrug])

mj4ever · 17/08/2009 23:27

hmm let me think we are on here asking for advice and telling all our problems, yet when pete is low, he's a lier and a prat???

mama2b3 · 17/08/2009 23:33

i think ppl should leave the poor guy alone! are we all forgetting here that he has just come out of a relationship breakdown? and has past history of anxiety and depression?? and has to put up with his ex shagging around and flaunting it!! give peter the credit he deserves he is trying to do the best by his kids and still bringing up harvey as his own despite all the shit kate has thrown at him. he could of hurt her right back by dropping harvey. but no the guy proves what a genuine great dad he is. he deserves a bloody medal!!!

scottishmummy · 17/08/2009 23:37

given y'all only "know" this schleb tittle tattle through paid monkey's publicists and those with vested interests actually no one knows either him nor her

this spat will play out in media
they are both media whores using media to score cheap points
pity their poor children when they become aware of this detritus

Mumcentreplus · 17/08/2009 23:50

So true Scott..makes me sick to my stomach...and yet my bile rises more for Ms Price
