Peter Andre: "My girlfriend is amazing"

Peter Andre says his girlfriend is "amazing" for helping him cope with the death of his older brother.

Andrew, 54, lost his battle with kidney cancer at the end of last year which left the Andre family devastated.

Peter says girlfriend Emily MacDonagh has been a beacon of support.

Speaking to British magazine new! he explained: "Sometimes, poor Ems has to put up with me going through these tough times, but I guess that's what makes her amazing."

He added: "She's just so supportive."

Australian star Andre is glad Emily is coping with his lifestyle and says the cameras don't faze her.

He gushed: "She's one of these people who goes with the flow, and I don't think she's bothered whether she's filmed or not, or if she goes to an event or doesn't. She's cool. she's very happy in her own skin. She is confident and doesn't let things worry her."

Andre recently revealed his  kids - Junior, seven and five-year-old Princess from his previous marriage to glamour model Katie Price - have wholeheartedly embraced his new girlfriend.

He said: "Oh my God, Junior still thinks Emily is his girlfriend and Princess thinks Emily is her best buddy. They're very attached to her, which makes it harder for me, because I want to make sure everything works out right with Emily because I know how close my kids are to her.

He added: "I want to make sure we do everything correctly. She's a big part of their lives. They love her."
