Peter Andre delights fans as he shares rare snap of whole family on Christmas Day

Peter Andre has shared a rare family photo as he and his family celebrate Christmas together.

The 49-year-old Mysterious Girl singer played games with his children and his NHS doctor wife Emily after a fun day of presents and food.

He took to his Instagram story to update fans on the family’s festive day, revealing he had been playing games with his youngest kids.

He is a proud dad to Junior, 17, Princess, 15, eight-year-old Amelia and Theo, six. And himself, the children and his wife Emily all celebrated the festive season together.

“Theo got me a good one,” he wrote while posing with a silver Christmas cracker hat on and a ripped piece of paper stuck to his forehead.

“Looks like Harry lobster,” he wrote alongside a close up snap of the paper with the illegible writing on. “An hour later I still didn’t get it.”

On his main Instagram page, he kept fans in the loop with some gorgeous Christmas Day snaps of him and his young family beaming in front of the tree.

“I’m the happiest dad/ husband alive this morning,” Peter wrote alongside the carousel of festive outfits. “Merry Christmas everyone,” he signed off.

Yesterday Peter recalled the first time he celebrated Christmas as his parents didn't mark the festive season during his childhood.

He was raised as a Jehovah's Witness by his mum and dad Savvas and Thea, who he previously said were "devout Jehovah's Witnesses and very strict Christians".

Peter first celebrated Christmas when he became a dad – which he says was a "beautiful" way to experience it for the first time.

He exclusively explained to the Mirror : "I grew up in a strict household of Jehovah's Witnesses.

"We didn't celebrate birthdays or Christmas or anything like that.”

He added: "I still respect everything I learned, even though I'm not part of the faith."

The singer then explained: "But one of the things is a lot of people say is: 'Do you feel you missed out' and I say: 'Well, you don't know any different'. But, now the kids are going through it I get to live it through them and it's beautiful.

"It may even be more special because it's their first time but it's also mine."
