‘I had weird complications’ – Emily Andre explains why she won’t have more children

Emily Andre has three children with singer Peter Andre

The mum spoke about their decision to stop having kids on Giovanna Fletcher's Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast.

Emily welcomed her third child with Peter Andre, a daughter named Arabella, in 2024.

They also have an 11-year-old daughter, Amelia, and an eight-year-old son, Theo.

The Mysterious Girl singer also shares two children, Junior (19) and Princess (17), with his ex Katie Price.

Speaking about the reason why they're not having any more children, Emily explained that it is "absolutely cemented now."

Emily said she faced many complications during her third pregnancy.

"I had weird complications all the way through. She was breech. I've had two breech babies. She nearly made it to 38 weeks, and I haven't really spoken about her birth and what happened afterwards because it was so hard and awful. It was tough. I was really unwell after she was born; there were quite a lot of complications."

Emily explained that she needed to have emergency surgery following her daughter's birth.

Emily said she had "the type of hernia that can strangulate quite easily, and that ends up being an emergency."

She said part of her bowels were "kind of in the wrong place" after the birth.

She said: “All the consultants I've seen have said 'we've never seen this in our whole career.’

"I knew things weren't right after she was born because I had a big, huge lump in my tummy sticking out. They scanned and they could see it was my bowels that had come out basically."

The mum continued:

"The recovery from that was quite awful. I was in the hospital for probably two or three days, and then the recovery was really, really slow.

"They had to do quite a lot of stitching things up and moving things around, so the pain was quite bad."

"We always said it would be the last anyway. Five's enough, we don't have any more bedrooms in the house for starters," Emily stressed.
