Peter Andre has shared his heartbreak and desperation at not being able to see his elderly parents for almost a year amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The Mysterious Girl singer’s parents live in Australia which currently has a very strict ban on most international travel – with Peter now attempting to reunite with them by contacting the Australian embassy.
Dad-of-four Peter says he spoke to them as his last hope to see his parents again soon.
The star opened up about the ordeal and how he’s feeling in his regular column for new! Magazine which sees the reality star often talk about dad life.

This time he decided to open up on how much he is missing his elderly parents as they enjoy a further along Australia.
Peter also heartbreakingly revealed that his mum ‘isn’t very well’.
The reality TV star wrote: “My number one priority this year is to go and see my mum and dad in Australia, as I miss them too much.
“I’m anxiously awaiting the borders opening as it’s been upsetting not seeing them, especially as my mum isn’t very well.”

Peter says he was hoping because of his mum’s health he would be allowed but it wasn’t deemed as enough of an emergency.
He continued explaining: “I actually contacted the Australian Embassy because there are special circumstances whereby family members can fly over, but sadly I don’t fit the criteria.”
It comes after Peter said he is the “stricter” parent compared to his ex Katie Price and wife Emily MacDonagh.
The devoted dad, who shares children Junior, 15, and Princess, 13, with former Page 3 starlet Katie, spoke to Daily Star in a bid to help our readers keep their children safe online.
Peter said that his children are allowed to have social media sites such as Instagram when they are 13 but they are “not” to go public until they are 14.
Asked how easy it is for his children to follow rules when co-parenting with his ex-wife Katie Price, whom Peter shares two children with, the star said he is the “strict parent”.
Peter said: “I’ve always kind of been the stricter parent.
“The only reason that is, is because my dad and mum were very strict. But they were so strict to the point that I couldn’t do anything. I’ve taken the best bits that I realised when I was older.”
