Peter Andre has shared a photo of himself with his two youngest children - three-year-old Amelia and eight-month-old Theo.

Peter, 44, shares his youngest two children with his wife, Emily MacDonagh, who yesterday opened up about her husband's battle with anxiety, which can often take a toll on the families of the sufferers too.

But Emily, 28, has been very open and honest about her wish for their two children to stay off Peter's social media accounts - but he can't resist, and shared this photo of himself with his kiddies.

He captioned the photo: "Mills on the back, Theo on the front. Love it."

The post was inundated with lovely comments from his fans, many of whom commented that he was a brilliant father.

One wrote: "You are such a great dad Pete, lovely family," whilst another added: "Who said men can't multitask!"

But one fan was wise to Emily's wishes: "Please can we all have just ONE frontal photo of Millie and Theo plz see their beautiful faces. We know you don't show them but just one plzzzx."

Peter actually spoke exclusively to Closer Online about his and Emily's disagreement over whether or not to show their children on social media.

He said: "It's really bizarre because I saw a big thing about this with Cheryl and Liam.

"They were saying that they don't want to do it, and I think it's up to each individual parent. Whatever they decide you've got to respect it.

He then likened his own children to the royal kiddies, Prince George and Princess Charlotte: "Prince William and Kate post pictures of George and Charlotte all the time, and they're the most beautiful pictures ever.

"It just makes you fall in love with little George and you can't wait for him to be king one day. Obviously they're royalty, but I'm thinking, if it's good enough for royalty, it's good enough for anybody!"

He added: "But there are some parents that don't want to do it and you've got to respect that as well. Emily's one of those parents that doesn't want it so I've got to respect that.

But he tries to push his luck as much as he can: "I still get away with little things... There have been times where I've posted stuff and you can't really see the kids' faces.

"Milly and Theo, they're just so cute. See, I post photos of them because I'm proud of them and of these beautiful moments, and you want to show everyone just like 99% of the world does on Facebook - they put pictures on of their kids because they're proud of them.

"I love doing that but I also understand that not everyone wants that so I've got to respect that. I get it.
