IT’S fair to say Peter Andre is a household name since he launched to fame in the 90s.
But his wife Emily Andre is also making a name for herself in the showbiz world, as well as being a doctor.
Who is Emily Andre?
Emily is the 32-year-old wife of Peter Andre.
She was born Emily MacDonagh on August 16, 1989, in Taunton.
She was a medical student when they met in 2010 and is now a doctor who often gives health advice on ITV’s Lorraine.
Emily and Peter are also known for hosting travel segments on This Morning.
How did Peter Andre meet his wife Emily?
The couple met through her father who is also a doctor.
Peter had been due to appear at the Plymouth Pavilions when he was rushed to hospital in excruciating pain.
He had kidney stones and was treated by Emily’s father.
Pete became close to the consultant urologist, and when he returned to perform at the Plymouth venue, he was introduced to Emily.
When did the couple start dating?
Emily and Peter were friends for quite a while after they first met.
It wasn’t long after Peter’s high-profile divorce from Katie Price and he was concentrating on being a good dad to his children, Princess and Junior.
There was a spark between them though and eventually Peter plucked up the courage to ask his friend, Emily’s father, for permission to ask her out on a date.
In 2012 they finally went public with their relationship at a Magic Mike premiere.
When did they get married?
After around a year of dating, the pair announced that Emily was expecting their first child.
Viewers got to know Emily when she appeared with Pete on camera on his reality show, My Life.
She won over Pete’s fans with her sweet and gentle personality and her great relationship with his children.
Peter proposed to Emily on New Year’s Eve 2013.
He popped the question in their baby nursery just days before their daughter Amelia was born in 2014.
The couple finally tied the knot in July 2015 in a ceremony in Exeter’s Mamhead House.
Peter said: “I couldn’t have wished for a better day. I’ve married the love of my life and I couldn’t be happier.”

How many children do the couple have?
The pair have two children together.
As mentioned, Amelia was born in 2014 and is now eight-years-old.
In May 2016 Peter and Emily announced that she was pregnant with their second child together. Theo.
Junior doctor Emily surprised Peter by wrapping up the pregnancy test which she and daughter Millie (Amelia) gave to him.
She told her followers: “When Pete got home I told him we had got him a present.
“He didn’t get it and was just looking at the test.
“He thought I’d just bought one to do! Pete started crying when I told him I was pregnant. He was really happy.”
Peter also has two children with his ex Katie – Junior, 16, and Princess, 14.
