GMB hosts Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway, who have teenagers of their own, asked Pete about his tough stance on the matter today.
The singer, 49, had previously said joining the cast was out of the question but when asked if he had banned Princess, he said: "No.
But he insisted the one way the teenager could make him happy would be by getting into the villa as the presenter, a job currently taken by Maya Jama.
He added: "I think, look, I say things in jest a lot of the time. I said my daughter was going to be a nun for years and I was secretly joking.

He explained: "She said to me, 'Would you ever let me go on Love Island?'

He also sent his sympathy’s to Michael Owen on the last series after his daughter Gemma entered the show.
"I have to say I feel every inch of pain Michael Owen must be going through seeing his daughter Gemma on Love Island," Peter, said.
"Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great show but it’s not exactly ideal as a dad, is it?"
