Peter Andre’s wife Emily buys Princess two rabbits for her birthday after banning her from getting a puppy
PETER Andre's wife Emily bought his daughter Princess two rabbits for her 13th birthday after banning her from getting a puppy.
Princess, who has been living with her dad and step-mum during lockdown, was refused a puppy for her birthday because Emily, 30, suffers with allergies.
But Peter, 47, explained the gift of two gorgeous dwarf bunnies more than made up for his daughter's disappointment.
He wrote in his column for New! magazine: "For her main present Emily bought her two little dwarf rabbits, which are so gorgeous.
"They are brother and sister and have their own little house.
"It’s ideal for Ems and her allergies, because she doesn’t have to be near them, like she would a puppy."
Princess celebrated her birthday over the weekend with her dad turning their living room into a glamping paradise for a sleepover.
He added: "It’s Bista’s 13th birthday this week, but we had the majority of our celebrations for her over the weekend.
"She had a friend come over in the daytime and they spent time in the garden in teepees, which was really cute."
He continued: "We’re doing up her bedroom as well, so we’ve ordered a few presents for that – which I won’t mention, because at the time of writing this column they hadn’t arrived.
"Hey, it’s not like me to leave it until the last minute!"
Meanwhile, Princess' mum Katie, 42, is said to be surprising her with a puppy for her 13th birthday instead.
The star has picked out a French bulldog puppy as a special gift for the soon-to-be teenager - just days after Peter said no because his wife Emily is allergic.

A source told The Sun Online: "The dog is arriving at Katie's house next week.
"Katie knows Princess has missed having a puppy around and now Katie’s only got one dog, she thinks it’ll be a good companion for Blade.
"Princess will pick the name, but she’ll have to stay with Katie when Princess goes back to her dad’s, as Emily is allergic to dogs.”
Katie - who recently became an ambassador for Bingo Blitz - has been planning to get a new dog for a while.
