Singer Pete shares Theo, five, and eight-year-old Amelia with Emily and he’s also dad to Junior and Princess, 14, from his marriage to Katie Price.
Writing in his column for new! magazine, Pete said: “My son Theo, who’s only five, has been saying that he wants to be like Mummy and be a doctor. And weirdly, he loves watching Dr Pimple Popper!”
Junior will release his first track in spring and Pete revealed he’s used his own experiences in the industry to guide his son.
He said: “I was 16 when I signed my first deal, because my dad wouldn’t let me sign it before I was 16.
“When I was taking Junior into the studio when he was 15 and he got offered the deal, I told him he wasn’t allowed to sign it until he was 16 either. So it was like history repeating itself.”
But Pete also revealed concerns about Junior entering the industry after his own experiences.

He said: “Of course, there’s a lot of fear, because you get thrown into the lion’s den.
“But I’m hoping that with everything I’m telling him on a daily basis, he will be OK.
“We sit and we talk about things, and he knows I’m right next to him the whole time. It’s unbelievable how similar we are.
“Like me, he wanted to be an actor but he also has a talent for songwriting.”
