    Peter Andre is trying to "protect" his children and keep them away from "negativity"

    The 'Behind Closed Doors' hitmaker is believed to have taken on full-time care of his eldest kids, Junior, 13, and Princess, 11, during a turbulent time for his ex-wife Katie Price - who split from husband Kieran Hayler earlier this year and has subsequently embarked on relationships with Kris Boyson and Alex Adderson - and he's doing his best to keep them focused on their education and "having fun"


    Asked about Junior and Princess living with him and wife Emily - the mother of his younger children Amelia, four, and 22-month-old Theo - he said: "We've had an amazing summer but I'm afraid I can't really talk about it...

    "I'm dealing with everything that's going on at the moment and my kids are my priority, but I think it's very important to deal with these things privately and I'm doing so.

    "Making sure my kids are protected and away from any negativity is my main priority.

    "I just want them to focus on school and weekends and having fun."

    And with 40-year-old Katie - who also has Harvey, 16, with ex-boyfriend Dwight Yorke, and Jett, five, and Bunny, four, with Kieran - attracting attention for her partying, Peter is doing his best to keep the children distracted, though he is always as "honest" as possible when they ask him questions.

    He told OK! magazine: "When any of the kids ask me questions, if it's anything that's a concern, I try to be as honest as I can, but I do try and find a way to divert it. I just want to keep the kids protected...

    "I allow the kids to go on the internet to play their games and watch slime videos! I encourage them to focus on the things they like.

    "You can't avoid the news all the time but we do our best.

    "They ask questions sometimes about certain things but I try and divert their focus onto something else and keep them focused on being kids."

    But the 45-year-old star does worry about his children overhearing playground gossip.

    He said: "I worry about the things the kids might hear but I'm dealing with it all.

    "I just want to shield them. Diversions have always been my tactic, but if it's something important, I'll address it."
