HE is used to thousands of people screaming his name when he performs on stage, but Peter Andre has traded that in for his four kids shouting at him instead.
Like millions of parents across the country, the 47-year-old has put the day job on hold to become a stay at home dad while the country is gripped by the coronavirus.
Pete is looking after Princess, 12, and Junior, 14, whom he shares with Katie Price, as well as son Theo, three, and daughter Amelia, six, while wife Emily, an NHS doctor, battles it out on the front line.
After a rocky start, the Mysterious Girl singer, has got into the swing of things as he takes on the new role of teacher, cook and fitness instructor.
We take a look inside Pete’s new stay-at-home-dad life…
Home cooked meals
Since life in lockdown started Pete has been making sure the kids get three nutritious meals a day.
Like many households across the country, the star has been making do with what he has and has been cooking everything from scratch.
Last night Pete shared a picture of a delicious looking curry, telling his followers: “Dinner prepped for them from scratch :)) daddy day care; I’ve got this.”

Pete is in fact a qualified body pump instructor and has been getting Princess involved in his work outs.
He told his followers: "Who remembers BODY PUMP?
"Believe it or not I am a qualified instructor from years ago. If this goes well I might start doing live classes. Anyone interested? If there’s enough of you I might start next week on YouTube .... let me know in comments.
"No need for body pump bar we can use alternatives."
Homeschooling
One of Pete’s biggest roles during this period has been becoming a school teacher trying to encourage his kids to knuckle down.
He has been very honest about how difficult it has been and has been keeping fans up to date with his often-amusing progress.
Last week he moaned: “I am at breaking point and it’s only day 2. #helplineneededforparentswhohavesuddenlybecometeachers #payriseforteachers.”
In one video he shared, Princess could be heard telling him: "We've got seven bits of homework which is seven hours. Why is that even possible, I'm in year eight?"
In another clip she is calls him dumb, while others show Junior also complaining about his work.
