Peter André plans more babies; talks about Harvey, Junior and Princess

by auditioning contributor Carlie:

Peter André says he and wife Katie Price-Andre, 29, plan to add a lot more children to their brood in the next few years, having shared,"We want loads!" Pete, 35, also revealed in a recent interview for New magazine that Harvey Daniel, 5 ½, who suffers from septo-optic dysplasia and a hormone imbalance, has undergone tests for Prader-Willi syndrome.

We just have to wait for the test results. Harvey wants food from the minute he wakes up until he goes to sleep, which is one of the symptoms. I really hope he doesn’t have it. He’s in good spirits. He has the most adorable laugh.

The only thing that’s scary about him is that he’s unpredictable and he’s strong. We don’t leave him and Junior alone together because he’ll go up to Junior and smack him one. You see his nose twitch and you know he’s ready to attack. When he gets angry, a whole room could be demolished.

Click below to read about Junior’s bout with chicken pox and why the Andres hope Princess will get it too.

On the topic of his son Junior Savva, 2 ½, the singer shared in his New magazine column ‘Planet Pete’ that the tot has chickenpox.

PoorJunior has been very clingy to me this week because he’s caught thedreaded chickenpox. We noticed his eyes going red and he had atemperature. Then, when a few spots appeared, we realized what it was.

He’s been keeping up his spirits, though, and still managed to get hisdaily dose of ‘Ratatouille’ viewing. Chickenpox has apparently beendoing the rounds at his school, so it was only a matter of time really.

The family are now hoping Princess Tiàamii, 9 months, will catch it as well.

Nodoubt Princess will get it now, too, although I’m told it’s better forthem if they have it when they’re babies and toddlers, not adults, soevery cloud has a silver lining. Lots of people have been saying thatPrincess looks like me at the moment, and I must admit I’m loving it!

this is one of my favorite couples. They are both so down to Earth, they truly enjoy being parents. Junior is absolutely adorable also.

While I don’t agree with the politics and much of the work of Katie Price , I sat down and watched 2 episodes of her and Peter’s reality show and have to say she was a very hands on loving mum to her children and exceptionally good with Harvey. Their children are a real credit to them!

I love Harvey. My heart breaks for that child due to his disabilities. But he has definitely won my heart.

I can’t abide by a lot of what this couple does, although I must admit that Pete seems like a very loving Dad. And a very patient husband…

It also annoys me when celebrities say their kids go to ‘school’. Two year olds don’t go to school!

Harvey has a lot to deal with, I really feel for him and hope he doesn’t have Prader-Willi Syndrome

I know a bit about Prader-Willi syndrome I have a girlfriend whose daughter has it. I thought when I first read about Harvey He had a lot of the characteristics of Praders. My girlfriend must put locks on the fridge, and pantry. Anything that has food in it. As with any child that has a disablity It does put a lot of strain on a marriage. But I am sure the Prices get a lot of help.

They seem like a really nice family and very hands on. I can only imagine the stress the family is under.

Ruthella, all of my kids started school at 2…and I’m not a celebrity..:)They went 3 days a week, loved every min of it.

I think it’s great that they are not afraid to share the tough parts of parenting, especially those that come with having a child with disabilities. They love their children, but aren’t afraid to admit that being a parent isn’t a cake walk, far from it.

I love Katie & Peter & think theyhave 3 adorable chldren. they are fantastic parents & work very hard to give the children the lfe they have.

They are definately my favourite celebrity couple.

I really hope Harvey doesn’t have the syndrome he is being tested for. His disablities are hard enough on him, but the family cope very well & Katie is a fantastic mother, even though people don’t like the kind of work she dd in the past.
