Peter Andre embracing new career in theatre as he joins Grease The Musical for 2019 tour
PETER Andre has revealed to fans that he will be taking up a new challenge next year, starring in the 2019 tour of Grease The Musical.
The dad-of-four made the surprising revelation on social media, alongside a picture of him as Teen Angel, the character he'll be playing.
He wrote: "From Thriller in the West End last week to Grease next year. I’ve decided to dabble a little in theatre. Very excited."
However, the Mysterious Girl singer also added that he won't be performing throughout the whole tour, and he's only doing a few dates.
He added: "Unfortunately can’t commit to whole tour so I’m doing the odd dates as this guy. 😂 ok this is gonna be fun. theatres across the UK in 2019! 🌟🎶"
Explaining why he couldn't play the main role of Danny Zuko to a fan, the 45-year-old said: "I can't commit to whole show so I had to take a part that I can come in and out of."
Peter's new role comes after his recent performance in the West End musical Michael Jackson’s Thriller, which he did for charity.
During the show, where in showed off his Michael Jackson moves, the dad-of-four got up close and personal with a dancer who looked just like his wife Emily.
The woman resembled Emily thanks to her long flowing hair, but Emily, 29, was seen grinning from ear to ear – no doubt very impressed with his stage antics.
Peter also looked incredibly happy as his career goes from strength to strength and he managed to put the stress surrounding his ex-wife Katie Price behind him for the evening.
And it looks like Peter is not the only talented member in the Andre household.
The doting dad recently showed just how much of his talent his son Junior has inherited, as he shared footage of him rapping and dancing around.
Junior, 13, seems to take after his dad in the dancing department, as he recently won a prestigious drama scholarship.
The proud dad recently posted a gushing tribute to his teenage son and his younger sister, 11-year-old Princess, on their first day at high school.
In the clip, Junior, 13, and Princess, 11, were in the back - with their seat belts on - as Peter recorded a teary video.
