Peter Andre is set to be a dad for a fifth time, announcing his wife Emily's pregnancy news via a sweet social media post in October.<\/p>\n

While the whole family are thrilled with the news, one of the former pop star's children found out that they would be getting a younger sibling slightly earlier than planned, after Peter made a slip up. <\/p>\n

Peter, 50, and Emily, 36, share kids Theo, seven, and Amelia, nine, already, while he is also father to Junior, 18, and Princess, 16. <\/p>\n

Talking exclusively with OK!<\/b> about how the family learned of their new sibling, he explained: "The plan was to keep the pregnancy a secret from the kids until Emily passed the three-month mark, but as with all best-laid plans, it didn\u2019t quite work out that way.<\/p>\n

Peter and Emily Andre\u2019s pregnancy: \u2018This is our first Christmas all together – it\u2019s going to be magical\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI was really excited to tell the kids, but we decided it was sensible to wait in case something went wrong \u2014 we couldn\u2019t face delivering bad news."<\/p>\n

Slipping up with the news, Peter continued that Junior was the first to know. <\/p>\n

\u201cThen one day, without thinking, I asked Junior to pick up a prescription from the pharmacy for Emily, and he rang me and said, \u2018Dad, I\u2019ve got to tick a box saying if she\u2019s pregnant or not.\u2019 <\/p>\n

"What could I do? So Junior found out a little earlier, but that really wasn\u2019t the plan!\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Peter and Emily shared their pregnancy news to Instagram earlier this year, surprising fans as they wrote: "We are delighted to share the news with you all. A new addition to our family in 2024 The kids are so excited, So are we."<\/p>\n

Upon telling their children the good news, Emily and Peter also revealed the pregnancy to the latter's dad, Savvas, in Australia. However, they delayed telling Peter\u2019s mum Thea, 86, who has been diagnosed with vascular dementia and Parkinson\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He emotionally told OK!: \u201cI waited to tell my mum for the same reason \u2014 I didn\u2019t want to risk later having to break bad news. Heaven forbid if something went wrong, it would have really hurt my mama,\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Thea knows the news now and couldn't be happier to be a grandparent once again. \u201cShe\u2019s always been so strong as a person, so to all of a sudden see her not so strong is hard. But she\u2019s so thrilled and asks every day about the bump," said Peter.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are such a close family and seeing them decline like that is very difficult. They\u2019ve been married 68 years now. It\u2019s unbelievable, they\u2019re a real inspiration.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
