Mum's the word

Peter Andre’s wife Emily says she’s like a ‘big sister’ to his children Princess and Junior from his marriage to Katie Price

She's a mum-of-two herself but Emily believes that as the dreaded step-mother it's important she doesn't tell Pete's kids from his previous marriage what to do

PETER Andre's wife Emily has revealed she is "like a big sister" to Princess and Junior - his kids with Katie Price.

She might be a mum of two herself, but the 28-year-old said she's careful not to overstep the mark with her stepkids.

Writing in her column for OK! magazine, Emily said: "I think getting the balance right to being a step parent is crucial.

"For me I tend to leave the disciplining up to Pete and often I feel like a big sister, which works really well for us."

Meanwhile Emily recently waded into a weird online spat between Big Brother star Chanelle Hayes and Robin Thicke's girlfriend, April Love Geary.

Chanelle, 30, blasted April for breastfeeding her baby with perfect hair and make-up and both breasts on show then posting it on Instagram.

She wrote: “I’m all for breastfeeding and having a choice how to feed your baby but WHY do people feel the need to post pictures of themselves doing it?

“Especially the new pic of Robin Thicke’s gf! She’s got hair done, make up on, both boobs out. So strange.”

April, 23, hit back with: “Hey @chanellehayes, maybe the next time you want to criticize me for posting a picture of myself breastfeeding you should really take a look at the pictures you've had taken.

“Not that taking nudes are wrong! The naked body is a beautiful thing! But don't be a hypocrite mama…”

Emily, who is a doctor and has a spot on Lorraine talking about medical issues, shared her opinion in a later interview.

She said: “We have shared pictures of me breastfeeding, and while I wouldn’t show that much skin, I don’t have a problem with someone else doing it.

“If you don’t like it, don’t look at it.”
